Twister Piercing Sizes
Measuring the size of a twister piercing is not as simple as some other piercings. The diameter is measured from the space between the inner curves of the twister piercing.
The illustration shows how to measure the diameter. The twister piercing is often used to replace a more traditional piercing bar. The diameter of your new twister could be the same as the bar length of your normal piercing.
The bar thickness should also be the exact same as you would normally wear. If you are unsure what the right thickness or diameter for your piercing is, you can measure your current piercing. You can also find the most common sizes for your current piercing by browsing the product category of the piercing type.
Double Spiral Twisters
Next to the typical twister piercings, you can also find some double spiral twister piercings. The principle is the same, but the spiral continues in another loop.
We are always looking for new and exciting jewelry to add to our collection. You might find some lovely new designs so that you can create a unique look of your own.
