Anodized Titanium Piercings: The Latest Trend
If there’s one trend taking over the piercing world, it’s definitely anodization. More and more people are choosing to customize their jewelry with unique colors and special shades, making each piercing truly one-of-a-kind. But what exactly is this technique, and why is it becoming so popular? Let’s find out!
What is Titanium Piercing Anodization?
Anodization is an electrochemical process that alters the color of titanium without using paints or coatings. This means that the resulting color is long-lasting, skin-safe, and completely biocompatible. Through this treatment, we can achieve a wide range of colors, from classic shades like gold and blue to unique and iridescent hues.
But how does it work exactly? The process involves immersing the jewelry in an electrolytic solution and applying a controlled electric current. The voltage variation determines the formation of an oxide layer on the metal’s surface, which, depending on its thickness, reflects light differently and creates the desired color. This means that it is not a paint or plating but a true transformation of the material.
Fun Facts and Anodization Anecdotes
Anodization does not add any artificial color layer, so it won’t fade or peel over time. The color may slightly diminish with heavy wear, but with proper care, it lasts a long time.
This technique is also used in other industries, such as aerospace and medical fields, due to its durability and safety.
Not all colors can be achieved: the shades depend on the light reflected by the oxide layer, so pure red or black cannot be obtained through anodization.
