Titanium piercings have been a popular choice among piercing enthusiasts due to their durability, hypoallergenic properties, and lightweight feel. With the rise in popularity of anodized titanium piercings, many have also become interested in the art of fade anodization. Fade anodization is a technique that involves creating a gradient of colors on the surface of the titanium through selective anodization.
To begin, the titanium piercing must be cleaned thoroughly. This includes washing the piercing with soap and water and wiping it down with a clean cloth. Once the piercing is dry, it is important to ensure that it is completely free of any oils or debris. Cleaning the piercing also helps to ensure an even coating of anodization.
When anodizing a titanium piercing, an electrical current is passed through the metal in an acidic solution. The titanium develops an oxide layer on its surface, which is what creates the unique colors. The amount of voltage applied during the anodization process can be adjusted to create different colors, and the fade effect is achieved by gradually changing the voltage and duration of the anodization process.
To achieve a fade effect, the piercing should be submerged in the dye for increasing amounts of time, with each immersion adding another layer of color. The dyes used in fade anodization are typically acid dyes or metal complex dyes, which are known for creating vibrant and long-lasting colors on titanium.
While fade anodization is a complex process, it can be a fun and rewarding way to customize your titanium piercings. With practice and patience, anyone can master the art of fade anodization and create stunning, one-of-a-kind pieces.
