What should I do if my jewellery feels too tight or too long?

Piercing jewellery should fit comfortably without feeling excessively tight or putting pressure on the surrounding area. A bar that is too long may move around or catch more easily, while a bar that is too short can feel tight or press into the skin.

If your piercing is fully healed and the bar doesn't fit comfortably, you may need a different length. For products that state “Labret option is interchangeable with our internally threaded labret bars” on the product page, you can purchase a different length from our internally threaded labret bars without replacing the jewellery top.

If your piercing is new or still healing, or if the jewellery appears to be sinking into or becoming embedded in the skin, we recommend speaking to a professional piercer rather than changing the jewellery yourself.

If you're unsure which size you need, a professional piercer can measure your piercing and advise on the most appropriate fit.
