- Is titanium good for a new nose piercing?
- Yes. Titanium is light, corrosion-resistant and one of the least reactive metals, which is why piercers favor it for healing piercings. This stud is solid titanium, not plated.
- Will the crystal fall out?
- A bezel setting wraps metal around the stone's edge, so it holds more securely than prongs and resists snagging. That makes it a safer choice for a nose stud than a prong-set crystal.
- What size is it?
- The listed length is about 5/16 inch (8 mm), a common nostril screw length. The gauge is not given, so confirm the wire thickness with the seller before buying if your piercing is already established.
- Can I wear it in a fresh piercing?
- Possibly, but the bent screw tail can be fiddly to insert while a piercing is still swollen. Many piercers prefer a straight labret stud for initial healing and a screw like this once it has settled.
- How do I clean it?
- Wipe it with sterile saline or mild soap and water, and dry it fully. Avoid harsh cleaners, which can dull the crystal over time.
