I've been looking for nice internally threaded or threadless studs that were short enough to wear in my ears for months, and your 1/4" stainless steel labret studs work perfectly! No more CBRs that rotate in my healing piercings, or crummy cheap sterling silver studs that are way too thin....- Ria
I went to various organic body jewelry websites online and this is by far got the best deals I've seen! =)

SURFACE BARBELL - staple-shaped piece of jewelry designed for surface piercing
Surface Bar piercing is the only method of surface piercing that has, over time, proven itself to be reliable. Piercers using it have claimed as high as a 95% success rate – which is pretty much what one would expect for ANY piercing. It works by using "staple shaped" jewelry – that is, the jewelry goes straight down into the skin, then straight across, and then straight out. The purpose is to avoid any upwards pressure on the skin, leading to migration.
Because the jewelry is slightly more difficult to clean, it is important that the piercing has an adequate length:gauge ratio to allow proper drainage. Many people find that using titanium jewelry drastically reduces lymph response (meaning far less to drain).
You can learn lots more about surface bars if you check out BME's article, So You Want A Surface Piercing.
