re: Ear piercing... advice needed!

Quoting ALiCiA♥BABy ELiAS!:“ You can take her to Claires in the mall...n they have those piercing kiosks at the mall..n usually people just get lil studs..”

Those things are so discusting. The guns they use are not cleaned, they are so filthy. If you want to pierce anything it should be done with a hallow needle.

Quoting Resident egg donor:“ WTF Walmart? Seriously? I just died a little inside. I cannot believe they pierce at Walmart.”

Yes.

Wal-Mart.

*cringes*

I had parents bring their 6 month old baby over once (used to have a Wal-mart right across from the Claire's I ran) and this poor thing had MARKER (I'm pretty sure like a Sharpie) on her ears in squiggly lines...

evidently the girl who was going to do the piercing had never done one before. Ever. She was so nervous she couldn't even dot them.

*shudders*

I used to work at claires and we did that a lot too. But what sucks is if they had that ball we couldnt till it healed. Most seemed to have it too (infection)

Yup.

I hate Wal-Mart and their stupid stupid piercers.

A ball in their ear? Cause i have like a lump from getting my ears repierced. I got them at claire's.

Nah, she's talking about an actual infection.

Piercing with a gun gives you scar tissue 9 times out of 10. That's probably the lump you're feeling, especially if they have healed.

yeah after you get them pierced you get that. Any GOOD piercer will know the diference. What im talking about is if you get an infection as it starts to heal it forms a ball in your ear lobe. If you have this you CAN NOT get them re-done if you need to till its gone.
