I have painted clear nail polish on fake jewelry. It does wear off after a while but will work for a night out.

If they are posts, the clear polish works. If they are other styles, take a jewlery making class. You can then cut off the cheap stuff and put your own piece made with the metal you know you are not allergic to.
I also have a friend who can only wear clip-ons. She took a class and now buys inexpensive but fashionable jewlery for pierced ears and can convert them to clip-ons.
No, it does not work for everything but it is a help.

Several members of my family also cannot wear fake jewelry or even silver, only gold. I only wear fake jewelry for a special occasion and take it off immediately after. Otherwise I only wear gold jewelry, not silver or any other metal. It is funny because I wear the more expensive gold jewelry all the time, but the cheap fake jewelry only on special occasions.  milelol: Since I only wear gold, I don't have much jewelry, and I rarely go shopping for jewelry.
Sorry I don't have any advice or help.

PonyGirl93 Wrote:Does cheap jewelry other than earrings bother you? If so, you could be allergic to nickel. Me and my sister are both allergic, it gets pretty annoying. I have relatively severe allergy to it (the button on my jeans, belt buckles, watch buckles, etc. will all give me a big nasty itchy gross rash,) but you could have a mild allergy.
I don't have a solution other than investing in some expensive jewelry. Hopefully it isn't a nickel allergy!
I'm the same way. It's so annoying with belts! This is going to sound weird but I had some carebear bandaids and I covered my belt buckle with those haha. You never really see my belt anyways and it helps me not get that horrible itchy rash on my stomach. I also can't wear cheap earrings which is disappointing because there are so many cute options I see when I'm out shopping. I have boring sterling silver ball posts in mine right now. Boo. I can wear cheap ones for a short period of time but anything longer than a few hours and my ears are red and itchy. :mad:

If they are the post type earrings you can get some plastic covers that slide over the post so that no metal touches your ear. I got mine at a craft store, and they work great. I also can't use the metal backs, have went to the little plastic ones.

One of my friends, a guy, wears earings. I guess it's cool nowadays. (I don't wear girl accessories by the way) Anyways, he took his 8 yr old son to get his ears pierced. About a week later he showed up with his son, with earings on at my house. I told him that his son looked "very very pretty" with those earings on, (in a non-manly way) but I was just messing with him. After that, I didn't see him take his son out with earriings on. He also told me that he stopped putting earings on him cuz people would confuse him for a little girl with short hair. :roflol:
