❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Is this cartilage piece safe for a healing ear piercing?
No, 316L surgical steel contains trace nickel and is recommended for healed piercings only. Use implant-grade titanium for fresh wounds.
Will the rose gold finish fade or tarnish?
PVD coatings are durable but can wear over time with friction. Avoid abrasives to maintain the rose gold dragonfly jewelry appearance.
Can I wear these 16g cartilage earrings in the shower?
Yes, the steel is waterproof. However, dry them afterward to prevent soap buildup around the dragonfly details.
What post length is right for my tragus?
Most tragus piercings fit 6mm. If you experience swelling, start with 8mm until healed, then downsize for comfort.
