Hey just wanted to know what color chains ( or stud things in the center of the tooth, if you've had braces I'm sure you know what I'm talking about) I should get based on my hair and eye color and that stuff. And advice on how to deal with braces too!!

I think you should get blue! And they are called bands...btw! Lol and take a pain reliever before and after getting them! And stock up on soft foods! You won't be able to eat solids for a few days due to the soreness of your teeth moving and tightening! Good luck!

Lol I just got rainbow cuz I wanted all the colors c: but I think blue would be good for you. And braces are pretty easy to deal with, you'll probably have OO brush more cuz food gets caught in them a lot.

I have braces and I wear then wellow! I love it because it matches my skin undertone. I think you should try a light orange one, a salmon or a light pink. Also be prepared for pain. I don't mean to be pessimist or too literal, but it's true! it hurts on the first week or so, but then you get used to it and it'll be alright. ps.: I think braces are cute?

I personally don't like blue because it looked very bright and shocking when I tried it on myself...if you do want blue, go for a really light one!

You could get clear brackets on the top front so they are less noticeable. That's what I did. :)
