Generally a professional body piercer will discuss this with you before the piercing is done and assist you in selecting the right gauge and long enough to achieve the desired effect from the piercing. Most hoods are done with 14g barbells about 1/2" long or longer depending on the developement of the hood.

What is a hood piercing?
A hood piercing is where you pierce the skin which is above (& slightly covering) the clitoris. There are vertical as well as horizontal options.It's a female genital piercing through the clitoral hood surrounding the clitoris. There are two main types of hood piercing, the vertical clitoral hood piercing and the horizontal clitoral hood piercing. As the name indicates, the difference is in the direction the piercing is oriented in the skin above the clitoris. Neither of these piercings penetrates the clitoris itself.

What benefits does a hood piercing bring?
Answer 1: The idea of a well-placed hood ring (do you mean vertical or horizontal, by the way? I'm talking about horizontal) is that it the ball of the ring will rest on the clitoris, which could theoretically make sexual activity more pleasurable for the female. Vertical clitoral hood piercings are given barbell piercings, and the same principal applies, although I can't imagine the bottom ball of the barbell stays right on the clitoris as well as the ball of a captive bead ring would in a horizontal clitoral hood piercing.Of course there are other, non-sexual benefits, and for many people it's not about the sexual benefits at all (in fact, it's pretty rude when non-pierced people think that genital piercings are purely for weird kinky sexual reasons). It simply might make a woman feel good about yourself, make her feel like her genitals are "prettier" now, etc. Piercings do not generally have functions; they're just for aesthetic appeal.
Will your period mess with your vertical hood piercing?
If you shower daily and clean the piercing then you should be just fine. Keeping the piercing clean is important so if need be shower twice a day if you want to be on the safe side. Exotics heal very quickly (light heal in about 7 days) due to the increased circulation in mucous tissue, this allows the piercing to afford a light heal quite quickly. Showering will not harm the piercing and will actually promote the healing.

Can you have a horizontal and a vertical hood piercing at the same time?
This is entirely dependent on anatomy, and thus can not be answered very simply. It would be best to consult with a skilled piercer with some experience with both if you are seeking to have them. Many women are not suited to a horizontal hood due to space between the thighs and the formation of the labia. Some are not suited to a vertical hood due to lack of space under the hood its self for the jewelry. So it stands to reason that being able to have both simultaneously would be pretty rare, though I am sure there are a few women with the anatomy for such a thing.

In the horizontal hood the air is blown across the work surface toward the operator (air flow from back to front) and in the vertical hood the air is blown down onto the work surface (air flow from top to bottom).
