F136 Titanium:
F136 titanium is one of the highest-grade titanium materials available for body jewellery. It’s lightweight, incredibly strong, and highly resistant to corrosion, making it ideal for those with sensitive skin or metal allergies. Titanium is non-reactive and hypoallergenic, which reduces the risk of irritation or infection. F136 titanium is a great choice for piercings that are healing, as it promotes a safer, more comfortable healing process. It’s more expensive than stainless steel but well worth the investment, especially for those prone to sensitivities.

It’s known for being comfortable, hypoallergenic, and less likely to cause irritation. It’s worth noting as an excellent option for those seeking a more flexible and skin-friendly material for healing piercings, unless you're prone to bumps/snags/or sleeping on it...

Acrylic:
Acrylic is a lightweight and affordable material commonly used in body jewellery. It is available in a wide range of colours and designs, making it an attractive option for those seeking unique styles. However, acrylic can be more prone to scratching and may not be as durable as metals like titanium or surgical steel. While it’s generally safe for healed piercings, it is not ideal for initial piercings or for those with sensitivities, as it can sometimes cause irritation over time. It is also not as hypoallergenic as titanium or surgical steel, so caution is advised for individuals with sensitive skin.
