[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's not about cleanliness--the risk of infection even at Claire's is very very low. And while the guns aren't great, it gets the job done fine. It's about experience. Do you want a teenager who did an online training and has been at it for a few months to pierce your kid, or a pediatrician who does it every couple of weeks at most, or [b]a piercing specialist who apprenticed for years and pierces day in and day out[/b]?

It's an earlobe. [b] Teens have been DIY-ing this since the dawn of man[/b].  A specialist is not required.  If you are piercing some tender bit of your body, maybe going to a specialist makes sense.  Don't overthink this.  Go wherever is most convenient for you and your child.[/quote]

Have to lol at this, because this was me.  Mom and dad said no to piercing, I held the ice cube and then BFF used a hat pin at her kitchen table.  Both ears.  I wore my long hair down for a while, and by the time my parents realized, it was too late.

We got DD pierced at Claire's, no infections.  I think infection or not is based on taking care of the piercing (cleaning, turning the earings every day) and not the piercing gun/earrings which are sterile[/quote]
