Diamond Belly Rings Basics

Diamond belly rings are were a trendy fashion accessory but it looks like they have become a status symbol that is here to stay. More and more top of the line jewelers are offering this type of diamond body jewelry (including the diamond top down belly ring, diamond studs, diamond danglers and diamond bars) as part of their regular seasonal collections. The popularity of diamond belly rings might be due to the fact that the waistlines on pant keep getting lower and tops keep getting more cropped and shorter.

In order to wear diamond belly rings you must have your belly pierced. For some reason this area of the human body can be quite prone to infected. There are some materials that are safer for the skin. The safest materials for belly button rings are gold (or higher, silver, surgical steal, titanium and rhodium. Of them all titanium is the metal that is most compatible with the human body.

If you are buying fake diamond body jewelry avoid gold below 14 karats, sterling silver, silver-plated or gold or silver toned metals. These metals are more irritating to the skin and can cause infection. Another danger is that these metals could become wet from bodily fluids or water and tarnish or corrode and easily break. If you find that you are even allergic to the higher quality metals then you can buy a special piece of plastic called Tygon that is affixed to the belly ring and protects the skin from touching the metal.
