For those who've had braces - what was your favorite color or colors to get on them?
Or even if you haven't had braces, what color do you like to see the most?
For myself favorites were a medium blue or black.

I had blue the entire time I had my braces.
I had my braces in middle school and I was pretty shy, so I thought that if I got the same color every time people wouldn't know when I've had an orthodontist appointment. Nevermind the fact that I usually came to school late or had to leave early for the appointments. I don't know exactly why I wanted people to not know when I had an appointment.
Looking back, I wish I has tried out a variety of colors. If I ever got them again, I might start with silver or blue, but then hopefully have the guts to try other colors, and maybe color combinations. There are some color combinations that I think look cool, but I don't know that I'd try (such as green and purple; at most if I tried that I'd get green on top and purple on bottom).

My usuals are either mono cobalt blue or a combo of teal blue and neon green. Since I just started powerchains on the bottom, I feel a little more limited in what colors I can combo, but as for what I'm planning I definitely want to rock some Christmas colors around the holidays. For my next appointment tho I'm really looking forward to trying out the "suprise me" answer, and see what they decide to give me. Hopefully some colors I wouldn’t normally think of like pink or maybe even oragnge. So long as it's nothing boring I'll be down for it.

A lot of the early headgear pictures I saw had the straps in a mid-blue colour, which also seemed to have been a popular ligature colour for friends. Ever since then, my favourite colour has to be "headgear strap blue".
-
Blue, dark blue or black powerchain is the best. If it's simple ligatures, then I like color combinations like blue and orange, blue and yellow, blue and red, blue and green... the blue has to be there haha
-
Dark blue and red was my favorite.
-
As a youngster, my removable braces were always a transparent red. I don't know if there wer choices back then, but today i would choose something more intense.
-
Blue!
-
Transparent pink. Although my retainer is red! My Habit appliance is transparent pink but not how I envisaged it.
-
I started with light purple, but quickly discovered that it faded and turned into a vague purple brown. Then I had dark purple which was fading less and after that I had dark blue which I stuck with, cause it remained a nice color and it went well with a lot of outfits
-
Oh and for power chains I choose blue as well. They were a lighter shade of blue than the brackets, but were also nice
-
Indeed blue is a nice colour.
This applies to appliances, retainers, braces ligatures, elastics, and headgear neck- or head- pads
IMHO
