Is Organic Jewlery Safe for New Piercings or Long Term Wear?

By Karen L. Hudson, About.com

Question: Is Organic Jewlery Safe for New Piercings or Long Term Wear?
Answer: Only wear organic jewelry in a fully healed piercing, don't wear it while sleeping and only buy from reputable companies - all jewelry is brand new and never used on another human so there is no risk of disease. Some of them also require special cleaning or care, so be sure you get all pertinent information on whatever you buy.
