Frequently Asked
Is 316L stainless steel hypoallergenic?
Yes. 316L is medical-grade surgical stainless steel — the same alloy used in body piercings and implants. It contains less than 0.5% nickel, well below EU REACH safety limits, and is considered safe for sensitive skin.
Will Stylr jewelry tarnish or change color?
No. 316L stainless steel is naturally tarnish-resistant and will not turn green, black, or fade with normal wear. Every Stylr piece is backed by a 1-year color warranty.
Can I shower, swim, or sweat in Stylr jewelry?
Yes. All Stylr pieces are waterproof and corrosion-resistant. Wear them in the shower, pool, ocean, sauna, or during workouts without damage.
How do I clean my Stylr jewelry?
Wipe gently with a soft cloth after each wear. For deeper cleaning, use mild soap and warm water once a month, then dry thoroughly. Avoid harsh chemicals, bleach, and ultrasonic cleaners.
How do I find my ring size at home?
Wrap a strip of paper around the base of your finger, mark where it overlaps, and measure the length in millimeters. Match against our size chart. Tip: measure at the end of the day when fingers are at their largest.
What's the difference between stainless steel and gold-plated jewelry?
Gold-plated jewelry has a thin layer of gold over a base metal that wears off over time. Stylr's 316L stainless steel is a solid alloy throughout, so color and finish stay intact for years without re-plating or fading.
How should I layer necklaces?
Start with a 14–16" choker or short pendant, add an 18" mid-length, and finish with a 20–24" longer chain. Mix textures (chain + pendant + chain) and keep the same metal tone for a cohesive look.
Can I wear gold and silver jewelry together?
Yes — mixing metals is a modern styling choice. Anchor the look by repeating each metal in at least two pieces (e.g., gold ring + gold necklace, silver ring + silver bracelet) so the mix feels intentional.
How do I stack rings or bracelets?
Stack 2–3 pieces of varying widths — pair a thin band with a chunky statement ring, or alternate finishes (polished + textured). Keep one focal piece and let the others complement.
What's your shipping policy?
Free standard shipping on all US orders over $50 (5–8 business days). Express delivery is available at checkout (2–3 business days). International shipping is supported with duties calculated at checkout.
What's your return policy?
We accept returns within 30 days of delivery for unworn items in original packaging. US customers get a free return shipping label. Refunds are processed within 3–5 business days of receipt.
Do Stylr pieces come with packaging and warranty?
Every order arrives in a Stylr signature pouch — gift-ready and ideal for storage. All pieces include a 1-year color warranty against fading or color change.
Does sterling silver tarnish?
Yes. Sterling silver naturally oxidizes when exposed to air, sulfur (in sweat, food, and water), and skin oils — turning dark or black over time and requiring regular polishing. Stylr's 316L stainless steel does not tarnish under normal conditions and never needs polishing.
Does gold tarnish?
Pure 24K gold does not tarnish, but most "gold" jewelry is alloyed (10K, 14K, 18K) or plated. Lower-karat and gold-plated pieces can tarnish, fade, or wear off over time. 316L stainless steel finishes — including gold-tone — stay true with our 1-year color warranty.
Does gold-plated jewelry tarnish?
Yes. Gold plating wears off because the gold layer is microscopically thin (typically 0.5–2.5 microns) over a base metal. Daily wear, sweat, lotions, and friction expose the base metal underneath, causing fading and discoloration. 316L stainless steel is a solid alloy throughout, so it keeps its finish for years.
Is sterling silver hypoallergenic?
Not always. Sterling silver is 92.5% silver alloyed with copper or other metals — some people react to the alloy components or to natural oxidation. 316L stainless steel contains less than 0.5% nickel (well below EU REACH safety limits) and is widely considered safer for sensitive skin.
Stainless steel vs sterling silver — which is better for everyday wear?
Stainless steel wins for everyday wear. It's tarnish-free, waterproof, more affordable, and never needs polishing. Sterling silver requires regular polishing and can darken from sweat, water, or air exposure. For pieces you wear in the shower, gym, or pool, 316L stainless steel is the practical choice.
What necklace length should I choose?
Choose based on neckline and layering goals: 14" (choker, sits high on neck), 16" (collarbone), 18" (just below collarbone — most popular), 20" (above bust), 22–24" (matinee, layers well over tops). See our Necklace Length Guide for a visual reference on a body silhouette.
Can men wear Stylr jewelry?
Yes — many Stylr pieces are unisex, particularly chains, signet rings, and minimalist bracelets. 316L stainless steel is the standard for men's daily-wear jewelry due to its sweat-proof, scratch-resistant qualities and clean modern finish.
How should I store Stylr jewelry to prevent damage?
Keep each piece in its original Stylr signature pouch when not worn. Avoid stacking pieces directly together to prevent microscratches. Store away from direct sunlight and high humidity. No tarnish-prevention strips needed — 316L does not oxidize like silver.
