• Regular Cleaning: Clean your gold nose stud with mild soap and warm water, or use a gentle jewellery cleaner designed specifically for gold—avoid harsh chemicals and abrasive scrubbing
• Dry Thoroughly: Pat your stud dry with a soft, lint-free cloth after cleaning to prevent water spots and maintain lustre
• Storage: Store your nose stud in a dry, soft-lined jewellery box to prevent scratches and tarnishing—keep it away from moisture and direct sunlight
• Regular Inspection: Check your stud regularly for signs of wear, especially if worn daily—look for loose settings or damage to the backing
• Avoid Harsh Environments: Remove your stud before swimming in chlorinated water or using strong cleaning chemicals, as these can damage the gold and backing mechanism
• Professional Cleaning: For deep cleaning or if your stud becomes heavily soiled, consider professional jewellery cleaning services to restore original shine without risk of damage

• What gauge are these nose studs?

  Most of our gold straight nose studs are standard 20 gauge (0.8mm). However, post length and specific gauge may vary by design. Please check the individual product specifications before purchase to confirm the exact gauge matches your piercing. If your piercing is a different gauge, contact us for alternatives.

• Are these studs suitable for new piercings?

  We recommend waiting until your nose piercing is fully healed (typically 6–8 weeks) before switching to a gold stud. Once healed, gold studs are an excellent choice due to their biocompatibility and gentle nature on sensitive tissue. Always consult your professional piercer before making changes to fresh piercings.

• Will gold studs cause allergic reactions?

  Gold is hypoallergenic and significantly less likely to cause irritation than surgical steel or nickel-plated alternatives. All studs in our collection are nickel-free and biocompatible. However, individual sensitivities vary—if you have a history of metal sensitivities, perform a patch test or consult a dermatologist before wearing.

• What's the difference between 9k, 14k, and 18k gold?

  The numbers refer to gold purity. 9k gold is 37.5% pure gold (most affordable, excellent durability), 14k gold is 58.3% pure gold (best balance of durability and luxury for daily wear), and 18k gold is 75% pure gold (richest colour and lustre, ideal for investment pieces). All three are durable for nose stud wear; your choice depends on budget and wear frequency.

• How do I clean my gold nose stud?

  Clean with mild soap and warm water using a soft cloth, or use a gentle gold jewellery cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals, ultrasonic cleaners, and abrasive scrubbing. Dry thoroughly with a lint-free cloth. For stubborn tarnish, professional jewellery cleaning is recommended to avoid damaging the stud or backing.

• Can I wear my gold stud while swimming?

  We recommend removing your stud before swimming in chlorinated or salt water, as these can damage the gold finish and weaken the backing mechanism. If you do swim while wearing it, rinse thoroughly with fresh water and dry immediately.

• How long will my gold nose stud last?

  With proper care, a high-quality gold straight nose stud will last for many years—even decades with daily wear. Higher karat weights (14k and 18k) resist tarnishing better and maintain their lustre longer than lower karat weights. Regular cleaning and careful storage extend the lifespan significantly.

• What's the difference between flat back and ball back studs?

  Flat back studs have a smooth, flat backing that sits flush inside your nostril for maximum comfort and minimal irritation. Ball back studs have a small ball on the interior, which can cause pressure or discomfort with extended wear. Our collection features flat back designs for superior comfort and all-day wearability.
