They pierce ears and sell cosmetics to teenagers
Piece ears badly. They're famous for using piecing guns with untrained/poorly trained high schoolers doing it. And all of their product are temu level junk since before temu ever existed.
Yeah you want to go to a reputable tattoo shop and get them to do it with a needle instead
Yeah you want to go to a reputable ~~tattoo~~ piercing shop and get them to do it with a needle instead
I don't think there is a piercing shop around that isn't also a tattoo shop. Maybe if I looked to the most urban area in my local area, I could find one that is part of a shop like this claire's that sells jewelry, but I think we started off this whole comment chain by pointing out those shops do it poorly.
The target age of Claire’s is lower than teenager. 10-15 mostly. There’s a Claire’s in my local mall that has prepubescent girls plastered on the walls as advertisement.
13,14,15 are teenagers...?
