A retainer is not just any item. As its name implies, this curved barbell retains the shape of a piercing and prevents it from closing on those occasions that you can't, or you don't want to wear obvious piercing jewelry.

Not everybody has good taste ;-)

This barbell is the perfect solution for those cases where you can't wear your favorite eyebrow piercing jewelry.

This retainer is made of transparent PTFE or bioplastic, which is 100% free of nickel, so it's highly hypoallergenic.

On one end of the barbell, there's a small ring made of the same material, which prevents it from falling out and getting lost. 

This retainer is available in three different sizes:

• 16 gauge and 5/16" of length (1.2 mm gauge -- 8 mm)
• 16 gauge and 3/8" of length (1.2 mm gauge -- 10 mm)
• 14 gauge and 7/16" of length (1.6 mm gauge -- 11 mm)

Keep in mind that the biggest retainer is designed for belly button piercings. The other two sizes are too small and flexible for the piercing in the belly button. 

This retainer will make sure that your piercing goes unnoticed - unless they're looking too close!
