Internal threading - the ball has threads that screw into the post.
Internal Threading on body jewelry is the professional standard for new piercings. In fact the APP says and we quote: "Threaded jewelry for initial piercings must have internal tapping (no threads on posts) starting from 16 gauge."
External Threading - the ball screws onto the threaded post.
External Threading although most times less expensive, can damage, or traumatize a piercing, and even restart the healing process. You should take extra care when inserting External Threaded Body Jewelry and it should only be used in fully healed piercings.
