What to Know About Fake Gauges before Going Shopping

With the culture of inserting gauges in piercings becoming all the rage, innovation in this field of jewelry has more than tripled. Inserting plugs requires a lot of tolerance for pain and constant maintenance. Thus, some customers do not really want to go all the way in establishing gauges in their ears. They just want the look without the pain. For such as these, fake gauges were invented. They look like regular gauges but instead of being thick all the way, they have a thin wiry middle which goes through the earlobe. Thus from the outside it looks like the wearer has a regular gauge in place but is actually wearing something quite different.

Although shunned by authentic body plug enthusiasts, fake plugs are gaining popularity among the urbanites of the Western society. They have become even more popular due to the variety of designs in which they come and their cheap prices when compared to the real thing. With this in focus, a customer can get a really cool design for cheap and also that they can buy more than one piece at a time due to the comfortable prices. Another selling factor of the same is that they are very lightweight. Some gauge wearers complain that their gauges are very heavy and painful, especially when they are made of some heavier metals. The fake gauges are very light weight and look exactly the same as the original heavy plugs.

In the case of an individual considering buying fake plugs, the material for the plugs is very important. If one were to buy fake metal plugs, he or she might end up having allergies or rashes. In most cases, fake metals tend to react with sweat and corrode harming the skin and sometimes causing serious infection. However, if one insists on buying fake gauges made of metal, it is advisable to buy those made of titanium or stainless steel which is not going to cause any trouble.
