If the necklace comes in contact with soap and water, will it deterioate the necklace? Will it make my neck turn green? :)

If the cross is sterling silver it will not tarnish with constant wear...gases from the air, sulfur is what causes tarnish, when the jewelry is not being use...like sitting in a jewelry box for a long time...the stainless steel should be okay as well...I wear sterling rings all summer long...swim in them, etc...never had one tarnish.

the stainless will be fine, and that is the benefit iof sterling silver, it will not tarnish or turn you green~if you have an unusually high level of sulfur in your water then keep your silver out of it.

No, if it is really stainless steel, and real silver you should not have any problems with it. Most piercing jewlery is stainless steel.

shouldn't have any problem... The cross will begin to tarnish after acid from your skin comes into contact with it though.

i'm not sure about the shower...but the sterling silver will oxidize from the air, so when you're not wearing it, you should keep it in a plastic bag to prevent oxidation
