I agree with the 14k responses. My mother is severely allergic to any metal that isn't at least 14k, she will break out in terrible rashes on her skin if metal comes in contact with it (rivets or zippers on jeans, for example, or clasps for costume jewelry). I am only allergic in my ear piercings, and I have tried to do 10k gold, but I still weep and get a rash. I can do sterling silver (if it's actually REAL silver), and anything 14k gold or better. Even the supposed surgical stainless steel breaks me out! Has to be real silver or 14k gold or better!


That is how I am. If I come in contact with a metal hanger or zipper I break out.

Do staples in medicine break you out? Someone told me I should wear a bracelet in case of emergency but I'm like "it's just nickel, not a real allergy"
