5 out of 5 starsI’ve never had a hoop made more perfect for my little nose. Customer service was also really great as Sarah answered my questions and guided me to finding the best options for what I wanted. Shipping was fast and the packaging was super cute. I will definitely be buying more from this shop.

5 out of 5 starsSarah's nose hoops are the best!! Repeat customer here:) The endless oval hoop stays in place and feels custom fit for my nose. 20g is a great sturdy thickness so it never loses its shape with changing jewelry.

4 out of 5 starsThese are pretty... and delicate! A bit hard for the clasps to stay closed, but that could be because of the way I bent them when I put them in. Hypoallergenic tho for sure! Will try another set!

Sizing details-- Gauges
The thinnest gauge I work with is 28g and is almost threadlike.
26g and 24g which are also very delicate.
22g and 20g are about the size of most earring post or hoops that you would find in a typical jewelry display.
18g is slightly thicker and what we're normally pierced with. It may be uncomfortably snug in an ear lobe for just a bit. It's used for cartilage piercings and nostril jewelry.
16g is the beginning of gauged jewelry and fairly typical for cart and nose piercings.
14g is often purchased for septums and statement pieces.
I also often have 12g and 10g in stock. Thicker gauges may be available via special order.
Your piercer can tell you your gauge if you're unsure.
Sizing details-- Hoop Diameters
The most popular inner diameters for nose hoops, helix or cartilage, tragus and rook rings are 8mm, 9mm and 10mm.
Conch rings start at 10mm id.
Measure three times or get help, preferably using a millimeter ruler, for accuracy. Measure a piece of jewelry that fits well, from inner wall to inner wall across the widest point. Or measure the distance from your piercing to the edge of the relevant body part. For a looser fit add a millimeter.
Loose is better than tight, which can hurt. I can size your jewelry down for the cost of shipping if your hoop is too large, but I can't do much about jewelry that is too snug.
