💎 Favourite gemstone colours
✨ Favourite titanium colours
Fun fact: titanium can really turn exactly these colours! Not with paint — with a secret burst of electricity in our studio. That is why there is no red or green titanium here. Your real earrings can match your favourite!

Nervous? That's okay.
Most kids feel a quick pinch. Everyone experiences it a little differently. Being nervous is completely okay, asking questions is okay, and crying is okay too. You are in charge of your own piercing.
