Titanium Anodized

Anodizing is the process that changes the way the surface of the metal refracts light, resulting in different colors. An electrical current is applied to the metal and it increases the thickness of the oxide layer on the metal. Titanium body jewelry is anodized to create lots of different, pretty colors.

There are other websites that will sell body jewelry that says "Titanium Anodized" and have in very small print that it is actually stainless steel with a titanium coating. Titanium jewelry is more costly than stainless steel because most of it is implant-grade, as it is frequently used in medicine/dentistry. Selling the titanium coated jewelry makes people think that they are getting a deal on solid titanium.

Asia Tattoo #4

Asian flowers? Cherry blossom? Lotus? What do they mean or symbolize? 

The cherry blossom theme is a must on most of Japanese tattoo art.

By its nature the cherry blossom is an extremely delicate flower. The blossoming season of the flower is towards the end of winter and goes up to early spring. It only stays on the tree a short while after it has blossomed and then it makes its way to the ground. This short lived life cycle of the cherry blossom captured the essence of life for the Japanese. The fact that it was a beautiful yet short lived moment full of suffering is what relates the cherry blossom to life in general.

Lotus flower tattoos are also popular for people who have gone through a hard time and are now coming out of it. Like the flower they have been at the bottom in the muddy, yucky dirty bottom of the pond but have risen above this to display an object of beauty or al ife of beauty as the case might be. Thus a lotus flower tattoo or blossom can also represent a hard time in life that has been overcome.

How to open a segment ring

How do i open segment rings?! Why wont it open?

The ball of a BCR or segment of a bar closure ring is held in place by the tension of the ring; there is a dimple on either side for the ring to clip into. To remove the ball or segment, you must push it out of the ring - it does not unscrew. The best place to do this is over a sink with the plug pushed in, just in case you drop a piece.

To make this easier, we would advise the use of Ring Opening Pliers (or similar tool), especially for larger gauge jewellery as it is a lot tougher.

To fit the ball, line one dimple on the ball up with one side of the ring. Hold the ring firmly and push so that the other dimple clips into place. If the ring is too tight to clip your ball or segment into, the Ring Opening Pliers will make this process easier as you will need to expand the ring slightly.

Keeping your Body Jewelry Shining

Everyone is wondering is it safe to clean 316L Stainless Steel plugs, navel rings, or any body jewelry with alcohol? The answer is NO, you should stay away from alcohol or hydrogen peroxide because they can damage, discolor, scratch or even crack the materials of your jewelry. Some will say its fine, they work fine for me, but eventually that jewelry will be no use in the long run. To clean your jewelry i would recommend warm water and antibacterial soap.

Dermal Punchers

What is dermal punchers? What are they used for? The medical industry uses them to take biopsy samples, but piercers use them to make round piercings which remove an actual piece of flesh.Dermal punches are primarily used to perform cartilage piercings, punch and taper surface piercings and nostril piercings. They are not widely used for other types of piercings, because they remove a section of tissue, and this may limit stretching of the piercing in the future.

Asia Tattoos #3

Ill be blogging about Asian Dragon Tattoos, and what they really mean. Ill start with the Chinese Dragons.  Chinese dragons do not have wings, and has five claws. Often dragons symbolizes anger, fire breathing monsters, but Chinese dragons are the opposite. Chinese Dragon are intelligent, kind, and full of good will.They have 117 scales, 81 are positive (yang) while 36 are negative (ying).

                                               Article Source: http://EzineArticles.com/1054714

Japanese dragons also do not have wings, and has three claws. Much similar to the Chinese/Korean Dragons. Japanese Dragons has the meaning of guardianship, strength and power, and amazing wisdom.  

There are six forms of the Japanese Dragon.

                                               Article Source: http://EzineArticles.com/690423

The Korean dragon was said to have certain specific traits, generally like the Chinese dragon, but it developed a longer beard, and Korean dragon has four claws. It is in many ways very similar in appearance to dragons of Chinese and Japanese mythology. They have 81 (9×9) scales on their backs, representing yang essence.

Very occasionally a dragon may be depicted as carrying a dragon orb known as the Yeouiju (여의주) in one or more of its claws.

 

Asian Dragon tattoos are a very famous art to get, but not alot of people actually know the meaning, or there just mislead.

Tapers

Lets get into dept with what Tapers are really meant for. Alot of people mistake tapers as just everyday wear, it can be used as a normal body jewelry to wear, but The most common professional technique for stretching piercings, tapering involves the use of a taper. Most tapers are made of stainless steel or Arcylic and some have threads extending from the wide end to a sharp thin end, to make insertion easier. 

For Fresh stretched ears i don't recommend Acrylic because there not healthy for them, so a stainless steel would be the best. After its fully healed you may change them into Acrylic tapers. Below are just some tapers Piercedfish.com carries on there website.
