Can People With Metal Allergies Still Wear Jewelry?
Yes. Absolutely yes.
If you've spent years avoiding jewelry because every pair of earrings makes your ears swell, every bracelet gives you a rash, and every necklace leaves a red mark on your chest — this page is for you. You are not broken. Your skin is just telling you it doesn't like what you've been giving it. And honestly? It's right.
Why Your Skin Reacts
Most jewelry-related allergies come down to one thing: nickel. It's the most common metal allergy in the world and it affects an estimated 10 to 20 percent of the population. That's millions of women who have been told they just have to deal with it or stop wearing jewelry altogether.
Nickel is used in costume jewelry, gold-plated pieces, some sterling silver, belt buckles, watch bands — it's everywhere. And here's the frustrating part: once you develop a nickel allergy, it's permanent. Your body remembers. Every time nickel touches your skin, your immune system reacts. It doesn't get better with time. It usually gets worse.
So most women with metal allergies do one of two things — they either suffer through the irritation because they love jewelry, or they stop wearing it entirely. Neither option is okay.
The No-Metal Solution
This is where Sarahfide takes a completely different approach. Sarah builds her jewelry from hand-painted wood beads. Wood doesn't contain metal. It doesn't contain nickel. It doesn't contain anything your body wants to fight.
For bracelets, there's no metal at all. Sarah's bracelets are strung on stretch band and made entirely of hand-painted wood beads. They sit on your wrist all day with zero metal touching your skin. Zero. For someone with a severe metal allergy, that's not just nice — that's life-changing.
For necklaces, the longer styles like the Emelia and Adaline are also strung on stretch band with all wood beads. No metal chain. No clasp fighting against your skin. Just painted wood beads resting gently against you.
Sarah has heard from customers who hadn't worn jewelry in years — sometimes decades — because of metal allergies. They tried Sarahfide and couldn't believe they could finally wear beautiful jewelry again without their skin paying the price.
You Deserve to Wear Jewelry
Having a metal allergy doesn't mean you have to live without jewelry. It means you haven't found the right jewelry yet. When the beads are wood, the hooks are stainless steel, and there's no nickel hiding anywhere — your skin has nothing to react to. You just get to feel beautiful.
That's what Sarahfide was made for.
