Kinds of Tongue Barbells include the following: |
Standard tongue barbells Standard tongue barbells are usually made of surgical stainless steel, sterling silver, and gold. They are thick and usually feature a ball or a swirl button on one end that measures about five millimeters. They usually have a 14 gauge and measure 10 to 16 millimeters long. Most models have external threading. Vibrating tongue barbells Vibrating tongue barbells vibrate upon the activation of the switch at the end of the shaft. Because they use battery power to function, they should not be worn all the time. Many models can be taken out when not in use. They are larger, heavier, and more uncomfortable to use than standard tongue barbells. |
