These look true to the picture when they arrive. I actually ended up using one of the clear barbells for my belly button throughout most of my pregnancy and I am currently still wearing the blue barbells in my nipples. Prior to pregnancy I had always worn the titanium jeweled style of barbells and found them to be quite uncomfortable during due to hormone changes ect. so I recommend these barbells to you if you are dealing with that issue or issues with your nipple piercings healing. These can hardly be felt as you wear them and my nipples are totally healed after years of on and off healing :)
