Where can I get my ears re-pierced?

SingleMumOf2_3

I have had ear piercings from claires before.. had no problem with catching anything and it not healing correctly.

The only thing I hate about Claires.. is so many seem to take babies there.. to get their ears done.. and then you get a crowd stood round watching while the poor baby crys hysterically at what has just been done to them.. but thats another debate.

Hope they heal really well keep up with the cleaning and care and I cant see you having any problems.

I've crossed a road without looking before and not been run over. That must be perfectly fine too

Well if my ears drop off I will let you know!

The girl that did mine took a pair of gloves from a box she alcohol swabbed the gun and the studs were in a sealed plastic container so the gun doesn't touch the person, she swabbed my ears before the procedure and the gloves and all the packaging and the swabs all went in the bin. Bit different from 1979 when the hairdresser wacked my studs in with a gun that looked like a big stapler, no gloves no swabs no packaging on the earrings.

im kinda in the same situation. I have lovely earrings and only one of my holes in my ears is still open. The other ear is kind of half open, i can get it in half way in the front and a little in the back but wont go all the way through.
Im way too much of a chicken to get a needle or gun thru my ears now though!

I had my ears pierced 41 years ago (eek, I don't feel that old!) and very rarely wear earrings now.

If I have difficulty getting earrings in, I find if I hold and pull my earlobes down, they go in easily.

I had mine redone in CLaire's too when they grew over. I read all the threads on here about how awful they were and how everyone should go to a proper piercing studio, but I was 40 years old and would have felt completely out of place amongst the belly button piercing and tattoos! I followed all the hygiene advice Claire's gave me and had no problems at all. It might not have been objectively the best place to go, but it was in my comfort zone.

Have to admit Ive never had my eyes properly re-pierced.
First got mine done about 11 years ago now and despite hardly ever wearing earrings the holes have never fully closed up - maybe Im just odd
But as a result Ive always managed to open the holes myself...

Have to agree about claire's to a point though, I got mine done there and the hole in my right ear is at an odd angle which makes it fun trying to put earrings in...
