Niobium is a "reactive" metal. Its natural color is a dark gray. To change the color of the niobium it is immersed in a water and sudsy solution, with an electric current. How long the metal stays in the water with the electricity, determines what type of color it will take. Niobium is similar to titanium, but is softer, and has more brilliant coloring.
••••••••••••••••••••••• DIAMETER/SIZE: ••••••••••••••••••••••• Don't know what size to get? Measure the distance from your piercing, to the outside of your nose, and add 1 mm. If you would like a small gap, add another 1 mm.
••10mm: for wide piercings, often leaves a gap, most easy to put on. ••9mm: has a tiny gap, or hugs thicker nose cartilage. ••8mm: hugs the nose, snug fit. Model is wearing an 8mm in 20 gauge. ••7mm: snug for small piercings. ••6mm: (least common size), for VERY small piercings.
• • • To insert hoop, twist the ends away from each other, then twist the ends back together to form one continuous loops. Do not pull the hoop apart. There is no "latch" or locking mechanism, you simply twist/bend the hoop into position. We provide tutorials and written instructions with every hoop order.
