One of the most important factors in a good fit for a lip ring is getting the right lip ring size. When you get your lip pierced, your piercer picks the correct size or gauge based on the location of the piercing and the overall size and shape of your lip. Most rings come in three sizes—18, 16, and 14 gauge. The gauge refers to the overall thickness of the ring. As the gauge number increases, the ring size gets smaller. Use the gauge size to find various styles of lip rings that fit well and look fantastic.
Remember to consider your particular piercing when choosing a ring. A hoop won’t work with a medusa piercing, but a stud or spike lip ring will. Shops on Etsy have a wide range of lip rings, making it simple to find the perfect addition to your collection.
