A standard nipple barbell length typically ranges from 12mm to 16mm, depending on your anatomy and comfort level. When choosing nipple barbells, it’s important to pick a length that allows for a secure fit without feeling too tight or too loose.
To remove a barbell nipple piercing, hold one end of the nipple barbell and twist the opposite ball counterclockwise until it unscrews. Once the end is removed, carefully slide the barbell out of your nipple piercing.
Most nipple barbells are 14 gauge, which is the standard size for nipple piercings. When shopping for nipple barbell jewelry, you’ll also want to consider length to ensure the best fit for your anatomy. For help finding your perfect nipple barbell fit, contact Ask Jules.
Nipple barbells are the most common choice for nipple piercings because they offer a secure, straight fit and are comfortable for everyday wear. Hoops can also be worn, but nipple bars typically provide more stability.
Curved barbells can be used in nipple piercings, but straight nipple barbells are more commonly recommended. The best choice depends on your anatomy and comfort with different nipple barbell styles.
Most nipple barbells have threaded ends, so at least one side unscrews for easy removal. Nipple barbell jewelry can be internally or externally threaded. Internally threaded nipple barbells have a smooth bar for more comfortable insertion, while externally threaded styles have threading on the bar itself.
It’s not recommended to use pliers to remove a nipple barbell, as this can damage the jewelry or irritate your nipple piercing. Instead, gently unscrew the threaded end by hand or visit a professional piercer for help.
Eyebrow barbells are usually shorter and curved, which may not fit properly in a nipple piercing. For the best comfort and fit, it’s recommended to use nipple barbells specifically designed for nipple piercings.
