The LobeCraft newsletter lands every other Friday, in your inbox. One email, not ten. I cover one placement or aftercare question in plain language, a jewelry note worth knowing, and whatever myth I watched spread that week so you can ignore it.
What you get
- One piercing topic, done properly. A placement, a healing question, or an aftercare step, with the honest timeline and the professional-standard advice.
- A jewelry note. What’s safe for a fresh piercing, what to avoid, and how to tell decent metal from the cheap stuff.
- One reader question, answered straight. And if it really needs a piercer or a doctor, I say that instead of guessing.
Five minutes to read. The point is to help you get pierced well, not to fill your inbox.
What you won’t get
- Fear-mongering or daily email. One issue every two weeks, written like an adult.
- Sponsored content dressed up as advice. Any partnership is labeled and follows the affiliate disclosure.
- Your email shared outside the providers named in the privacy policy.
