I know lots of people get ear piercings at the mall so there's probably nothing major wrong with it, but I have heard that it's better to get it done at a tattoo parlor. A needle may be more intimidating to a child than the gun they use at the ear piercing places, but it's supposed to be better. At the ear piercing places they just use earrings that have pointier backs than your average set of earrings, but they're still pretty damn blunt by comparison. The needle is supposed to be much smoother since it's obviously much sharper. Plus they'll have way more piercing experience than whoever they hired that year at Claire's.
