How to establish your preferred length for belly jewellery.
The listed length (inches" or millimetres as shown above) refers to the distance between the balls. It is the length of the piercing shaft in fractional inches/millimeters and not the length of the full belly jewellery.
If you are unsure what size you are, measure a piece of navel jewellery that currently fits you correctly and assess which size shown below will best fit. TIP: Most professional belly piercings are done at the standard 10mm to 11mm lengths. If your piercing was done sometime ago your piercing may have shrunk to a smaller size over the years.
NOTE: When you are initially pierced, due to anticipated swelling, your piercer will most likely use a size 12mm bar. This is to allow space for your swollen skin during the healing time. Once this healing process settles down (typically within 6 months give or take) your navel ring size should most likely go back to a standard 10mm. If at any stage you are uncertain, pop in and ask your piercer, I'm sure they will be able to assist.
For non-standard size piercings, we have a collection of custom sizeable navel rings here.

Pregnancy / Maternity Belly Button Ring Size Information
As your belly grows, your navel piercing stretches. During this time, it is best to wear a flexible PTFE or Bio Flex belly ring to avoid irritation.
Tummy Toys pregnacy belly rings are a standard size 14 gauge - as per above sizing and are sold in the following lengths. Anything shorter is not recommended as you can optionally cut these belly rings to a smaller size anyway if they are far too long for your piercing. Our pregnancy belly rings are self threading and your purchase from The Belly Ring Shop will include instructions on how to do this. For threading assistance please feel free to contact us.
| Length | Duration | Sizable? |
| 14mm | Up to 7 months | Yes |
| 19mm | Up to full term | Yes |
| 20mm | Up to full term | Yes |
Gauge - width of the shaft (eg. 14g)
Navel jewellery is measured by gauges. The higher the gauge the smaller the piercing. 14g is the standard size that fits most piercings. To go up to 12g (and wider) you will need to have your piercing stretched.
The majority of navel rings sold at The Belly Ring Shop are available in the standard 14g size unless otherwise specified. We have various alternative sizes available in the custom resizable collection here.
16g is actually a smaller piercing gauge then 14g. Often people who leave their piercing without jewellery for too long end up switching to a 16g as their piercing partially closes, however there are far less choices in belly button rings in a 16g so retaining your 14g piercing is much more beneficial.
Refer to the chart below for specific details.
| Gauge | Millimeter | Inches |
| 16g | 1.2mm | 3/64" |
| 14g (standard) | 1.6mm | 1/16" |
| 12g | 2mm | 5/64" |
| 10g | 2.4mm | 3/32" |
| 8g | 3.2mm | 1/8" |
| 6g | 4mm | 5/32" |
| 4g | 5mm | 3/16" |
| 2g | 6mm | 1/4" |
| 0g | 8mm | 5/16" |
| 00g | 9.5mm | 3/8" |
| 000g | 10mm |

Customers praised the 6mm mini bar length as "perfect" for shallow or thin piercings, especially post-pregnancy or for double piercings. Many noted "high quality" and great value. Some concerns: ball threading issues caused loss, and a few experienced skin reactions. Most loved the comfortable, secure fit that doesn't catch or irritate.
My belly piercing the skin has recently gotten smaller and I really needed a smaller bar but couldn’t find one anywhere til I looked n ordered from your site, amazing quality, fast shipping, and all around incredible will be buying again
Really cute, just like photo. The bar is a little long for me, but my piercing is very small.
Finally found a short bar to fit nicely 🙌
It's perfect
"Perfect Fit for Petite Sizes – Loving These Mini Belly Bars!"
I've been on the hunt for a belly ring that fits my size without slipping around or looking loose, and these mini belly bars are exactly what I needed! The standard belly rings were always a bit too large, making them look bulky and unappealing. But this one is a great size that stays put and fits perfectly – it actually complements my belly button rather than overwhelming it.
The design is minimalistic yet stylish, making it suitable for everyday wear. It’s comfortable, secure, and doesn't shift around. My only wish? I’d love to see this style in more colors! Having a variety would make it even easier to match with different outfits and styles.
All in all, I’m thrilled with the purchase. If you’re looking for a belly ring that’s on the smaller side, this is a fantastic choice!
A bit small
PERFECT SIZE
After having stretched skin from having babies these are the only bars that sit well without being all loose. Love them!!!!!
Perfect size for having bottom and top of belly done. Love it.
The ball comes off really easily but otherwise I love it 🫶🏻
So good such a perfect fit
I absolutely love the mini belly button ring. I was pierced with the traditional 10mm bar and because I have a double piercing, it was knocking against the bottom one making healing difficult. The 6mm is *very* tricky to put on because it is so short but once it is on, it is staying put. The dangly cat below is also from this brand, absolutely obsessed!
Very pretty
I received this quickly, but unfortunately the top ball can broken with the gem off. I contacted them and they sent me two new replacements. Very happy with my purchase overall - and a great size bar too!
Long belly rings didn’t suit me after I had my first son, the mini belly bar is perfect & the quality is fabulous. Not my first purchase from The Belly Ring Shop & it won’t be my last 😀
This is the shortest bar you can get for belly rings and it’s harder to come by. The bottom ball is bigger then some of the others I had with short bars which is good .. it sits nice in my belly button when I’m in a seated position and doesn’t stretch the hole
Was super happy with belly ring wanting to get some more there great and price great also :) thanks guys
Finally found a good quality short bar! It fits perfectly and doesn’t irritate me like the normal length bar
The short length is perfect for my shallow piercing. I just wish there were more colour options :)
Wish I had found you guys earlier. I’m in love with my 6mm belly bar. Looks beautiful on.
After the birth of my baby, the skin around my navel thinned out and my belly bar was too big.
The 6” belly bar is exactly what I was looking for. I’m in love. Thank you so much for making my navel look like it should again, beautiful!
I should have gotten a 6mm one but the 8mm still works and looks great! I used to have a 10mm ring in and it was way to long, which caused my belly button to get irritated all the time. I searched and searched for a shorted bar and came across this one! I love it!
I’m very happy with this purchase! It’s really awesome that they have mini bars because I’m on the smaller side. It was just as expected! Thank you so much!
Love it. Love the short bar customisable options. Amazing
Still trying to figure out which length I like best. This length is really practical and doesn't catch on things, but next time I'll try the 8mm to see if I like the bottom jewel hanging lower. It's definitely a better fit than the 10mm!
Perfect size! Just what I have been looking for. Thank you! 😄
