The Meaning Behind Body Freedom

Body Freedom represents autonomy, confidence, and self-expression.

We believe your body is not a trend — it's a canvas. Piercing jewelry should empower you — without compromising safety, comfort, or long-term wear.

Our name reflects our promise: freedom to wear what you love, with complete trust in what touches your skin.

Hoops Guide

Whether you prefer a clean everyday hoop or want to build a layered ear stack with charms, the right fit makes all the difference. This hoop earrings guide explains common sizing tips, how to wear hinged hoops comfortably, and how to add charms safely for a personalized piercing jewelry look.

Hoop Sizes

  • Inner Diameter

    Hoops are measured by inner diameter, showing how closely they sit against your ear.

  • Piercing Placement

    Your ideal hoop size depends on piercing placement, ear shape, and your preferred fit.

  • Gauge and Comfort

    Check both hoop diameter and gauge to ensure a secure, comfortable fit.

How to Fit Your Hoops

Open the Hinge

Gently open the hoop at the hinged seam. Avoid pulling too hard, as too much force may bend the hoop or affect the closure.

Insert Into the Piercing

Carefully slide the hoop through your piercing. Make sure the hoop passes through smoothly and sits comfortably before closing it.

Click to Close

Press the hinged section back into place until it clicks securely. Always check that the hoop is fully closed before wearing it throughout the day.

Adding Hoop Charms

Open the Hoop

Gently open the hinged hoop at the seam. Handle the hoop carefully to avoid bending the shape or damaging the closure.

Slide the Charm On

Place your charm onto the hoop and check the direction before closing it. Make sure the front of the charm faces outward when worn.

Style and Secure

Fit the hoop into your piercing, then click it closed. Your charm is now ready to wear, giving your hoop earrings a more personal and expressive look.

Selecting the Right Earring Thickness for Your Piercing

The thickness of your hoop earrings, also called the gauge, should match your piercing type and how it was originally done.

NEEDLE PlERCING If your piercing was done professionally with a needle, it may be suitable for 1.2mm gauge jewelry or thicker, depending on the piercing location and healing condition.

PlERCING GUN If your ears were pierced with a piercing gun, the piercing is often closer to 0.9mm to 1.0mm, especially for standard lobe piercings.

To keep your Body Freedom piercing jewelry comfortable and secure, always check the hoop gauge, inner diameter, and piercing placement before purchasing. If you are unsure which size is right for you, ask a professional piercer before changing your jewelry.
