The Kayang Longnecks wear brass coils from the age of four. From then onward loops are added about every three year, until the age of fourteen.

Children wear just a single set of spiral-shaped rings, whereas the coils of adults consist of up to three individual sets of coils.

The brass rings of adults consist of a main coil of 16-22 windings, with at the base a separate 5-6 coil winding, onto which a smaller coil of 62 mm diameter with 5 loops is attached perpendicularly, at the back.
