How to care for organic plugs and body jewelry

http://www.kingsbodyjewelry.com

Hey whats up again! So a good question I got often is how to care for organic jewelry. Organic jewelry includes many types of materials such as wood, buffalo horn, bone, etc., anything that has been living is an organic material. With organics, if you want to keep them 100% safe from issues like cracking then you for sure want to keep them as dry as possible. I always tell people, if you get a basic set that isn't crazy expensive, then just wear them and enjoy them. There is no point in being obsessed with keeping them dry if you just have a basic inexpensive set (unless you just really like them and want them to last forever). However, if you have a nice expensive set of organics that you plan on wearing for years, then you will want to keep them as dry as possible to help avoid cracking and breaking.

Also in the vid I mentioned plugs with inlays. Inlayed plugs are where other materials are inlayed inside the main piece. These plugs you will want to keep as dry as possible since it can weaken the wood glue over time, and also the edges of the inlays are a lot more fragile. So keep these as dry as possible and when you aren't wearing them, put them in a place that doesn't get much moisture (for example, not your bathroom).

But in general, just enjoy your plugs and don't worry about it much unless you have a really nice set. Well check out our site for our HUGE selection of organics, I hope all is good!
