One way to help verify that your jewelry is real titanium: anodizing. Implant grade titanium changes color through an electrical process called anodizing, while “surgical steel” usually just bubbles or sparks. It’s completely safe for piercings since there’s no coating or plating involved, so the color won’t chip off or flake into your piercing. Avoid plated jewelry on fresh piercings. It’s often lower quality, and once that coating starts to wear off, it can cause irritation. Anodizing is free
