Try a labret talon for an intimidating look

You have your labret, and you enjoy the look of your labret studs, but that’s not what you really want, is it? You want a labret talon for that really wicked look. There are plenty of styles of labret talon available, but there are a few things to consider when you move up to this more extreme, intimidating style.

Because of the size of a talon, it will naturally by heavier than other styles of labret jewelry, so keep this in mind. Don’t begin wearing a labret talon, especially a heavier weight one, until your piercing is completely healed. Make sure you take into consideration the way it will pull against the piercing as well. You may find this uncomfortable at first, and you should make sure that the disc on the inside of the lip fastens securely and won’t rub too much. Once you’re comfortable with the fit of a talon and you know you can adjust to the larger size, there are innumerable options.

A labret talon generally curves down over the curve of the chin, rather like a claw, to a point. Some are notched along their length while others are smooth. There are also some that curve in, and then back out below the chin, making a sinuous “S” curve. Just about any labret talon will be made of either stainless steel or titanium, adding to the intimidating appearance.
