Piercing de cartílago de oro amarillo

At EarCandy, we prioritize your well-being, so our yellow gold cartilage piercings are designed to be safe and comfortable. Generally, gold is one of the most recommended materials for new piercings and during the healing period due to its hypoallergenic properties.

• High Purity: We use karat gold that meets high standards, significantly reducing the presence of reactive metals like nickel.
• Minimizes Irritations: Being a non-reactive metal, the yellow gold cartilage piercing helps prevent bacteria buildup and minimizes the possibility of inflammation or irritation, promoting clean and fast healing.
• Professional Recommendation: Many piercing professionals specifically recommend 14k or 18k gold for the initial healing due to its quality.

If you have extreme sensitivity to other metals, the high-quality yellow gold cartilage earring is one of the best choices to ensure a smooth healing process.

Caring for your yellow gold cartilage earring is simple and essential to keep its characteristic shine. Proper maintenance will extend the life of your jewelry and prevent residue buildup.

• Regular Cleaning: Use warm water and a mild neutral soap. Gently rub the jewelry with a soft-bristled toothbrush.
• Rinse and Dry: Make sure to rinse the piercing well to remove any soap residue and dry it completely with a soft, lint-free cloth.
• Avoid Chemicals: Avoid exposing your piercing to strong chemicals like chlorine, perfumes, or hairsprays, as they can dull the shine of yellow gold.
• Check Closures: Periodically check that the piercing closure is well tightened to prevent loss.

By following these steps, your yellow gold cartilage piercing will look like new for many years.

Comfort is a common concern, and although cartilage is a sensitive area, our yellow gold cartilage piercing designs are made for daily wear, including rest.

• Low-profile design: Many of our models, especially those with flat or internal screw closures, minimize rubbing and pressure while sleeping.
• Proper size: Choosing the correct size and thickness (gauges) is crucial. A well-fitted yellow gold cartilage earring will not feel bulky.
• Smooth material: Yellow gold has a smooth surface that reduces friction with the pillow.

If you feel discomfort at first, try sleeping on a travel pillow or donut pillow to avoid direct pressure on the piercing.

Choosing the correct size is vital for comfort and healing. There are two main measurements to consider: thickness (gauge) and bar length.

• Thickness (Gauge): For most cartilage piercings, the standard size is 16g (1.2mm) or 18g (1.0mm). If it is a recent piercing, confirm with your piercer.
• Length: It should allow enough space for initial swelling if it is a new piercing but be snug if it is already healed. Common lengths range from 6mm to 10mm.
• Choose the type of closure: Make sure the closure (internal or external screw) is comfortable and secure for your ear.

If you have doubts about the measurements of your yellow gold cartilage earring, we recommend consulting an EarCandy professional to ensure a perfect fit.
