One common issue with captive bead rings (CBRs) is that they can twist or rotate inside the piercing, causing discomfort or irritation. This is usually caused by improper sizing or placement of the jewelry, or by wearing a CBR that’s too loose or too tight.

If your CBR is twisting, the first step is to determine why it’s happening. If the ring is too tight, for example, it can put pressure on the piercing and cause it to rotate. On the other hand, if the ring is too loose, it can shift around inside the piercing and get caught on clothing or hair.

To prevent twisting, make sure your CBR is properly sized and fitted to your piercing. Consult with a professional piercer to determine the right gauge and diameter for your specific piercing location, and be sure to choose high-quality jewelry that’s made from hypoallergenic materials and designed for long-term wear.

If you’re experiencing discomfort or irritation from a twisting CBR, it may be time to visit your piercer for an adjustment. They can help you remove the jewelry safely and replace it with something that fits better and feels more comfortable.
