Why I Choose Titanium Posts for Sensitive Ears

Why I Choose Titanium Posts for Sensitive Ears

I chose to use Titanium posts because so many people have 'sensitive ears' and titanium is the most hypoallergenic element. Titanium is ideal and the preferred material because it does NOT contain nickel. It is not an alloy.  It is an elemental metal.  

I use Grade 1 titanium which is the first of four commercially pure titanium grades. It is the softest and most ductile of these grades. It possesses the greatest formability, excellent corrosion resistance and high impact toughness.

Titanium: No Nickel at all

Stainless Steel: Is a metal alloy. Surgical - grade stainless steel contains a small amount of nickel. 

Sterling Silver 925: Is a metal alloy. Genuine sterling silver contains 92.5% silver, 7.5% copper, and possible other metals like zinc or nickel.
