What the AI looks for in Men's Body Piercing Barbells

Style for placement: Use straight bars for tongue, industrial, nipple and frenum. Use curved bars for eyebrow, rook and daith. Use circular (horseshoe) bars for septum, nipple and lip. The wrong curvature puts pressure on one side of the channel and causes migration or irritation bumps.
Wearable length: Bar length is measured between the ends, not including the balls. For fresh piercings, allow extra length for swelling, then downsize once healed. Too short embeds during swelling. Too long gets chewed, snagged or damages teeth and gums in oral piercings.
Gauge: Tongue and nipple bars are typically 14g. Industrials are commonly 14g. Eyebrow and cartilage are commonly 16g. Confirm what you wear. Bars marketed for one placement often come in only one gauge.
Thread system: Internally threaded or threadless only. Ends must match the post's thread standard or pin gauge. Mixing thread standards across brands strips threads or leaves loose ends that fall off and get swallowed.

Anatometal: Internally threaded titanium barbells with interchangeable ends.
Industrial Strength: Wide range of straight and curved bar lengths.
Neometal: Threadless posts that accept many decorative ends.

Acrylic or metal-ball tongue bars from bulk kits, since hard acrylic and loose balls chip teeth.
Externally threaded bars.
Industrial bars sold in a single fixed length when you have not measured your piercing.

Threaded ends back off with movement. Check them during cleaning, or switch to threadless ends with a properly bent pin.
