No absolutely not, that is not appropriate!

Doctors offices are no better than the mall. They use guns and they don’t do it often enough to be good at it.

DANIE HOOKS IS THE QUEEN! I brought my 10 year old daughter on her birthday to get her ears pierced. Danie could not have been more affirming, knowledgeable, and kind. She made my daughter feel so special, empowered her to make up her own mind and her own decisions, and talked her through everything before anything happened. I was so impressed with her that I got second ear-piercings too!! She is our GO-TO for sure! Ask for 'Ms. Hooks' and you won't regret it!

I took my 13 year old there for her second ear piercing and our experience was ok. It was expensive, her holes were crooked (noticeably so she took them out) and the staff was kind of rude.

We ended up doing it again at piercing pagoda in fair oaks and it was great

I took my daughter to Craig Pokes U for her 16th birthday to get her ears pierced for the first time. She was nervous, but they talked her through it and DD said it was painless. Yes, it’s expensive but they know what they’re doing and it’s all very sanitary. The piercing equipment is all individually wrapped and they do not use a gun.

There is a traveling nurse who does it Upper Lobe piercing. It’s expensive (like $170) but considering it. They were recommended by a friend but we haven’t used her yet.

I took my kid to Craig pokes U when she was around 7/8. She freaked out at the tattoo shop vibe with all of the flash on the walls. The piercer saw her starting to freak out and instead of talking to her just rudely said to me "we can't pierce someone who doesn't want to be pierced". We left and went to piercing pagoda in Springfield later that day and it was totally fine. The ladies there were super nice and she didn't shed a single tear.

I’m not sure what you mean by “flash on the walls”. I thought the place looked like a dentist’s office.

"Flash" refers to the pre-drawn tattoos shown on walls of tattoo shops. Did you not have to walk up the stairwell and go through the shop? We didn't make it as far as the piercing room (which I would assume is the dentists office you are referring to).

... and I see they have a new location that does in fact look way more like a dentist's office.
