How to choose the right metal for your piercing jewelry
An essential aspect to consider is the choice of metals for your jewelry, it is the following: if you notice that your skin darkens when wearing silver earrings or other metals, it is likely that you are allergic to nickel. Nickel is commonly used in metal alloys and can trigger allergic reactions in some people. This allergy can manifest itself as redness, itching and irritation on the skin.
It is crucial to understand that nickel is not always used in its pure form; It is often mixed with other metals to form alloys. Therefore, it is essential to check the composition of the jewelry before purchasing it. Opting for hypoallergenic metals such as solid 14K gold or titanium can be an excellent alternative to avoid skin allergy problems.
The reason behind the biocompatibility of 14 karat gold lies precisely in its low nickel content. Since, as mentioned above, it is a metal that is often associated with allergic reactions in some people, it is found in low enough concentrations in this alloy, making it a safe and well-tolerated option for most. This feature is especially beneficial for those with sensitive or allergy-prone skin.
- 24K Extremely soft and prone to scratches and infections.
- 18K Persistent softness, not recommended for piercing jewelry.
- 14K Optimum balance between gold content and durability, perfect for daily use.
- 9K Greater alloy, possible trigger of allergic reactions.
Fundamental composition of 14K gold
The composition of 14K gold reveals an exquisite mix: 58.3% high-quality gold and 41.7% other metals such as silver and copper, with silver being the main alloy. This alloy balance is essential for the manufacture of piercing-type jewelry, guaranteeing quality, malleability and hardness.
Essential care for your gold piercings
Gold is synonymous with durability, but all jewelry, including gold piercings, requires delicate care. All pieces of jewelry need to be treated delicately since 14K gold is quite malleable and can deform if the piece is not handled correctly, losing the warranty. Master and understand snap systems
For a hassle-free experience, understanding snap systems is essential:
- Clicker System: ideal for hoops.
- Push Pin/Internal Thread System: used on labrets.
- Spiral System: Perfect for nose sparks.
- Store your piercings separately and if possible do not mix materials.
If you wear gold jewelry for long periods of time, you should still remove the piercing to clean the area and the jewelry because it is completely normal for the body to ooze fluids such as lymph and for the accumulation of particles such as environmental pollution, soaps, shampoo to occur. , and again we reiterate that this is completely normal, the fact of using gold does not mean that the body stops producing its fluids.
Remember that if you encounter difficulties when wearing your piercings, at Helix our allied piercers are available to offer professional advice and ensure a safe and comfortable experience.
