Belly Bar Sets with Interchangeable Acrylic Balls
Interchangeable Belly Bar Sets with Acrylic Balls are a fantastic way to change the look of your Belly Bar without removing the bar from your navel piercing completely. These sets are available with a 316L Surgical Steel, Gold Plated or Titanium Belly Bar (13 colours of Titanium to choose from). You get 5 sets of acrylic balls altogether so 5 different looks can be achieved with one low price.
The belly bars are available in a choice of lengths:
6mm (1/4″)
8mm (5/16″)
10mm (3/8″)
12mm (1/2″)
14mm (9/16″)
16mm (5/8″)
If you confused as to what size you need our Body Jewellery Measuring Guide should help. Navel Piercings are usually 1.6mm (14 Gauge) in thickness and can be anywhere between 6mm and 16mm in length. The length of a belly bar is taken in a straight line between the two balls – the curve is not measured, nor are the balls.
People are usually pierced at 12mm – 14mm (depending on lots of factors) to allow for initial swelling, once the swelling has gone down and the navel piercing begins to heal the piercing usually settles down at 10mm – 12mm, sometimes the piercing stays at that length and sometimes the body rejects the piercing and the piercing “migrates” and gets smaller, very occasionaly growing out all together.
It is always good to wear a belly bar that fits you just right, if it is too long it may catch on your clothing and irritate the piercing, if it is too short it will cause the piercing to be sore and uncomfortable.

New Ear Piercing Lines at JoBananas
We have added some great new Ear Piercing Barbells to our website this week, lots of different colours and styles. The bars are steel 1.2mm x 6mm (1/4″) so they are really popular for upper ear, tragus, helix and lobe piercings.
We have also restocked some of our popular designs. The musical note ear piercing barbell which has cute jewelled quavers dangling from a jewelled barbell is sure to be a hit with any musician. The chain dangles are a fab way to join an upper and lower ear piercing, really unusual.
