Great customer service, super cute products
I'm loving these flat back earrings! They don't get caught on my hair or poke my head while I'm sleeping. It's easy to screw on and off despite being small and I love that they're internally threaded so I feel comfortable using them on my newer piercings.
The lightning bolt shape is fun and beautiful, but it is incredibly difficult to insert and screw the two parts together in your own ear. Idk but the gauge seems too thick/large to me, the post wouldn’t go through the front or back of 5 out of my 6 ear piercings! When I did finally get it to go in my cartilage piercing, the 8mm post was way too long, with most of it hanging out the back and impossible to sleep with—which is the main reason I wanted to try a flat back earring. I realize I chose the 8mm post but I can’t imagine any ear piercing it would work well with. Maybe a nose or lip.
I don't understand why (1) The long part of this earring is in the back and (2) why they don't tell you must buy the 8mm earring if you want it for the lower lobe. It's not hard to share that info, and I don't understand why these earrings are constructed backwards. It's not fun trying to insert the long part of the earring from behind, which you cannot see. I'd like a refund, please. I wish I'd been smart and only ordered one, instead of three. The necklaces, rings, and bracelets I've bought have been awesome. These earrings are stupid.
The front part of the earring unscrews really easily because the screw is way too short. It's really difficult to insert the front into the post and get it stable enough to start twisting it because it's so short. It doesn't take much for it to unscrew. I had it in my helix piercing and I was gently washing my hair in the shower and the earring unscrewed and fell out. Before I noticed, the post fell down the drain and the front part was sitting in my tub. So now I just have the front part and no post :(

More about your Ready-Made product
Jewelry Care + ShoweringGeneral care for my Ready-Made jewelry
General care for my Ready-Made jewelry
While we last longer than traditional jewelry, there are a few things to keep in mind.
Hardware Pieces:
General rule of thumb: All pieces are waterproof and chemical resistant, but be mindful of scratches. Refrain from contact with hard and rough surfaces. For this reason, we don’t recommend wearing rings and chains in the shower daily (too much inadvertent contact with loofahs and/or physical exfoliants).
Hand Sanitizer: Yes
Daily Handwashing: Yes
Shower: Mostly yes
Pool: Yes
Saunas: Occasional*
Ocean: Occasional*
Hot Yoga and Gym: No*
*Not tested thoroughly or high exposure to rough contact
Gemstone Pieces:
Our stones are lab made and function just like mined gemstones. As such, be extra careful when washing hands, and rinse jewelry with clean water after contact with sweat, soaps, and shower gels.
Sensitive SkinI have very sensitive skin prone to rashes. Can I wear Ready-Made?
I have very sensitive skin prone to rashes. Can I wear Ready-Made?
Yes, yes, yes. Ready-Made was created with the sensitive wearer in mind. We only use biocompatible materials that don’t harm living tissue. In fact, the materials we use are relied on extensively in the medical field as surgical tools and implants. We need to note that all stainless steel including our 316L stainless steel is composed of 5% nickel, but 316L is still certified as medical grade and biocompatible as the nickel is incorporated into the metal in a way that causes no skin reactions or harm. Less than 0.1% of the population can still have reactions to stainless steel, but you would know if this is true for you as something as ordinary as buttons on jeans would have caused an allergic reaction.
EnvironmentIs Ready-Made environmentally friendly?
Is Ready-Made environmentally friendly?
Ready-Made has the health of the planet as a priority. Our core metal, stainless steel, is one of the most reused and recyclable metals on the planet, with more than an 85% strength retention rate. Our high-tech color plating processes release no fumes into the environment and leave no residue or liquids behind. We also don’t rely on any chemicals to change the coating color of our pieces, relying instead on wavelengths. We use 100% recyclable cellulose envelopes and mailers, 100% recycled paper for our cards and boxes, and have moved away from relying on plastic packaging to transport and store our inventory.
Safe ManufacturingDoes Ready-Made adopt safe manufacturing practices?
Does Ready-Made adopt safe manufacturing practices?
Every manufacturer that we collaborate with is ISO certified, meaning that they meet certain standards in occupational health and safety, environmental friendliness and compliance, and quality assurance and efficiency. Our founding team also periodically visits each factory for internal audits. They are also in direct communication with all factory managers. Our hazard-free manufacturing processes neither release fumes nor leave behind residues.
MaterialsWhy do none of your products use traditional metals like fine gold, sterling silver, or brass?
Why do none of your products use traditional metals like fine gold, sterling silver, or brass?
We don’t use traditional metals for three main reasons:
1. Transparency. There’s a lot of talk about fair mined metals, but not a lot being done to prove this transparency. Getting to the source of gold and gemstones including recycled and reclaimed gold was a hurdle we weren’t able to overcome with certainty when we were starting Ready-Made and thinking about how to offer quality jewelry made with integrity. Vendors giving us their word didn’t feel enough.
2. The traditional manufacturing process for gold plating isn’t eco-friendly. Due to the nature of soft metals, traditional processes like wet plating and heat are utilized, and that can not only cause damage to the environment, but can also be harmful to factory workers.
3. We want to take the guesswork out of alloys (mixed metals). The materials we use - surgical stainless steel and titanium nitrite - are used in the medical field as surgical tools and implants. For the most part, our tissues don’t reject these two materials. With gold, silver, and brass, there’s always that risk of these alloys being mixed with metals that your body isn’t compatible with, leading to irritation.
Benefits of Ready-MadeWhat are the benefits of buying from Ready-Made?
What are the benefits of buying from Ready-Made?
We want to offer something that is timeless, looks like fine jewelry (thanks to our smooth-as-butter plating and detailed metalwork), skin-safe, sustainable, environmentally friendly, and transparent — all at a more universal price point that is comparable in price to mass manufactured, gold plated and costume jewelry.
