If you have a tongue piercing and want to get a gold tongue ring, it is a very good idea to choose a white gold tongue ring. Do you know why?
Since these tongue rings have no nickel content you can be rest assured that you would not have to worry about any allergic reaction! 🙂
Interestingly, white gold can be of different types based on the metal it is combined with. These white gold alloys have various uses, depending on what they are used for. For example, nickel alloys are really strong and make good rings or pins. Gold palladium alloys are easy to mold and are used for setting gemstones in white gold.
The best quality white gold is the 18 carat containing gold and palladium mainly, although sometimes other metals like copper, silver, and platinum could also be used to give it weight and strength. Allergic reactions to nickel are quite rare and occur in people who have been wearing white gold alloys for a long time. It can result in skin irritation, and for this reason, white gold tongue piercing jewelry is made without the nickel to avoid allergic reactions.
As you shop for your white gold tongue ring, you will find a variety of 14-carat white gold barbell tongue rings that look really cool. Most people go in for a collection to mix and match with what they are wearing. The barbells are usually 16-gauge solid white gold and the most popular design is the straight barbell. The tongue rings are highly polished for safe contact with your skin.
Although there are different kinds of materials out there like stainless steel, silver etc., you should opt for white gold. Silver can sometimes tarnish and cause irritation, and so can stainless steel for some people. The 14-carat white gold tongue ring is the ideal choice that will allow you to enjoy your tongue piercing! 😉
