See how I titled the post in all caps?? That's right ma beans!! I got my ears pierced!! 

The first scary review that I read was that one of the parents were like, "When Claire's pierced my daughter's ears, the gun was stuck and so a paramedic came." The gun itself is actually just a little gun that pushes the earrings into the ear, there is a separate part with the needle that holds the earring.

This separate part is pre-packaged, and it's thrown away immediately afterwards. I'll tell you more about this later with the process. Anyways another review that I saw was that the gun is bad for your ear. My piercings look perfect, and it doesn't feel like anything right now, so I can't say that the needle way is any better. The next most popular review is that since the girls who does the piercings are cashiers, they don't have any training and that they will pierce your ears unevenly. PEOPLE... EVEN IF THESE GIRLS DON'T HAVE PROPER TRAINING... THEY PIERCE A LOT OF EARS EVERYDAY, SO EVENTUALLY THEY DO HAVE A LOT OF EXPERIENCE!! My mom actually got her ears pierced, and the piercings are perfectly even and mine are super even too. Just because they got a bad experience doesn't mean everyone is bad, so I trust Claire's perfectly.
