Lobe Piercing Action…
Marking Up George.
George had never been pierced before, so decided on getting his lobes pierced with the idea to stretch them in future…
Here’s El Capitan VS. George w/some ear lobe piercing action.
- Blue pen out, marking up; all important to get the positioning aesthetically pleasing as well as level and straight.
Literally Lobe Piercing!
For a first piercing, George looks pretty relaxed.
- Clamp the lobe with a mini clamp and pierced w/1.6mm needle.
snip n’ smiles…
Now all smiles…
- After removing the needle from the canula, snip the canula down at an angle to bite the jewellery thread.

Here’s two customers from last summer in the original shop, left side is an ear lobe piercing whilst on the right is a triple pierced top ear. Great fun, you meet a lot of kool people visiting Greenwich n’ London in general.
Various Work…
Various Work pierced by myself: Rook, Tragus, Lobe, Conch & Rim.
Everything here was pierced by myself over the course of a couple of years on this lovely client, including the rook w/1.2mm x 8mm curved bar, tragus w/1.2mm x 8mm labret bar, lobe w/1.2mm x 8mm bar, conch w/1.6mm x 10mm bar and the top ear/rim cartilage w/1.2mm x 8mm bar. If you are new to what I do, like with any business continued and returning custom should speak volumes; it’s also really kool to create an astronomical universe of metal!
