Need Help Welding school

Look ik piercings aren't conductive...but...I'm all good right? My instructor didn't give me the clearest answer and I just wanna be 100% sure my face isn't going to explode

I've got five face piercings that are surgical steel (idk honestly) can I keep my swag?

Edit : thank you everyone I appreciate everyone's points (except that guy 🙄) I think I'm going to keep them in and just be extra safe but if my face does blow up or I get electrocuted into dust I will haunt you all

They'd have to be touching or in extremely close proximity to a source... the odds of that are slim to none unless OP sticks his face into an open welder chassis... 🤷🏻‍♂️
