- Piercings
Placement
The marker shows roughly where a named spot sits on a plain outline. Bodies vary, so the exact position will too.
Explore topic - Piercings
Body areas
Read each definition and look for the detail it names. Related terms overlap, and a name alone cannot tell you the method or the result.
Explore topic - Piercings
Jewellery shapes
The visible shape of the jewellery. A ring, stud or bar does not tell you how it is fitted or what it is made of.
Explore topic - Piercings
Shape
Every outline is drawn on the same frame. The names cover broad families, so neighbours overlap and styling shifts them further.
Explore topic - Piercings
Intensity
How quiet or eye-catching the jewellery styling is. It says nothing about placement, material or healing.
Explore topic - Piercings
Materials
A photo cannot show what something is made of. Material names come from the provider, so these guides have no drawings.
Explore topic - Piercings
Colour samples
Samples, not shade matches. Screens and lighting shift colour, so sheer and multi-tone colours are described in words as well.

Services and results
The service name and the visible result are separate. A definition here does not promise a result.

What the frame shows
A photo only shows what is in frame. Cropping, angle and anything in the way leave some details unknown.
