How Lobecraft got started
Lobecraft started the way most useful things do: out of frustration. We kept finding the same problems when researching piercings online. Guides that were either too vague to help or too clinical to read. Aftercare advice that contradicted itself from one site to the next. Jewelry recommendations that were clearly written by people who had never actually worn what they were suggesting. We wanted a resource that covered ear and nose piercings from every angle, written by people who had been through the process themselves. So we built one.
The best piercing information comes from people who’ve sat in the chair, dealt with the healing, and made the mistakes. That’s what we write from.
Our writers have a combined decade-plus of piercing experience across dozens of ear and nose piercings. We’ve tracked our own healing, tested different jewelry materials, made buying mistakes, and learned what actually matters versus what just looks good on Pinterest. Lobecraft covers piercing types, aftercare, pain, jewelry, and cost, all from a practical, first-person perspective. No professional piercing credentials here. Just real experience and a lot of notes.
