Daith Size Guide
Finding your perfect daith size depends on a couple of factors:
- Your individual anatomy - everyones ears are different so the diameter you need will be based on your skin thickness and ear shape. Unfortunately body jewellery isn't universal, so what works for one person may not necessarily work for you.
- Your piercing placement - a daith piercing goes through fairly thick cartilage so your unique skin thickness will determine whether the piercing is made further in or not, this will affect the jewellery size you require.
Recommended Sizes:
Gauge | 16g (1.2mm) |
Curved Barbell Length | 8mm |
Hoop Inner Diameter | 6mm - 8mm |
What size hoop do I need for my daith?
Daith piercings require either a clicker hoop or curved/circular barbell due to the curvature of the daith cartilage. The bar length you need will depend on your skin thickness, however the most commonly used is 8mm. It's more common to wear a hoop in a daith piercing and generally 8mm inner diameter works well for most people.
