Is this safe for sensitive skin?

It is made from G23 implant-grade titanium and sold as nickel-free, which is the usual choice for people who react to cheaper metals. Healing piercings still need a piercer's approval before you switch jewelry.

Is it 16 gauge or 20 gauge?

The specs say 16 gauge (1.2 mm) and the description says 20 gauge (0.8 mm). Ask the seller to confirm the gauge before you buy, since that decides whether it fits your piercing.

Which bar length should I pick?

Choose 6 mm for a standard nostril, and 8 or 10 mm for cartilage or thicker tissue. A piercer can measure your piercing if you are unsure.

How does the threadless fitting work?

The top has a pin that pushes into the hollow post and holds by tension. You may need to bend the pin slightly for a snug fit, and you pull rather than unscrew to remove it.

Will the gold color last?

The gold is a coating over titanium, so it can fade with daily wear, especially with friction or contact with harsh soaps. Titanium itself does not rust or tarnish.

When is the best time to buy it?

Small piercing jewelry usually sees the deepest discounts around major sale events and holiday periods. No price history was supplied here, so compare stores before buying.

Our take on the COCHARM Titanium

The COCHARM Paw S-Shape nose stud is a small gold-tone piercing made from G23 implant-grade titanium, with a zircon set into a paw-shaped top. It uses a threadless (push-pin) fitting, comes in 6, 8 or 10 mm bar lengths, and is sold as nickel-free and hypoallergenic. The listing states 16 gauge (1.2 mm) in the specs but 20 gauge (0.8 mm) in the description, so confirm the gauge before ordering. No current price or price history was provided, so there is no basis to judge today's price against its recent range.
