what is the best type of barbell for a VCH

i know a curved barbell is best,

but what about perfered gauge and length?

im new at this all,

i just need an idea before i get it done.

This question is a very loaded one…It’s like asking everyone what their favourite fruit is.

The reality is there are two different types of jewelry often used in VCH’s. The first is of course a Curved Barbell, while the second is a Straight Barbell.

When you visit the studio to get a VCH piercing, the piercer should be experienced enough to know to analyze the area in question to determine what is the most ideal option. This of course means getting you up on the table and taking measurements and seeing the size and shape of the hood in relation to the rest of your anatomy.

As for the gauge size and length, again this is just like trying to determine if a curved bar or straight bar is ideal for your specific anatomy requirements. I’ve done hoods as small as 14ga and as large as 8ga in thickness and jewelry length anywhere from 3/8″ to 5/8″ in length.

Essentially if the piercer doesn’t have a proper conversation with you to try and figure out what exactly it is you’re trying to achieve by getting this piercing (just the looks? want it for function?) and analyzing the area, that’s a sign you might want to look for someone else to do this piercing. As there is absolutely zero standard size, length,etc for this piercing. Just like how there isn’t for most piercings really, since everyone’s bodies are always slightly different in some way shape and form.
