Piercing allergies?


i'm allergic to titanium, silver & gold. what are the chances that surgical stainless steel will work for me?

Chances are good. Stainless steel worked well for me. My advice,since I have the same problem,is to do as much research as you can stand.

There are certain types of standards for jewelry that I look for and a local piercing/tattoo shop should usually have them(if you're interested in those earrings) with a ASTM standard 316LVM or otherwise. I'd check with jewelers or piercing artists. Hypoallergenic jewelry is usually good.

Never,ever buy plated stuff(info can usually be found on packaging). It will make your skin react. Claire's,Wal-Mart and most vendors carry plated jewelry. It's all about reading the packaging.
