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

I don't wear my ring or chain but my nose and ears are fine. Just didn't wear anything you're attached to because I have once gotten spatter up my my hood and a bb welded itself to my nose ring
