Molly Shipe
had this to say:
I was very nervous in deciding where to take my 7 and 1/2 year old daughter for ear piercings. Let’s face it: this can be scary (especially for a child) and it’s something you don’t want to be messed up and have to live with poor placement or have to re-do it, or traumatize them with pain. We considered going to Claire’s, a doctor’s office or even the American Girl store in Chicago. Ultimately, we decided we wanted something quick and convenient, and we wanted experienced, female piercers who do this all day every day, pierce lots of children, use needles (not guns), and do tandem piercing. Anna and Kennedy made the experience so great. They were calming and so quick. Room was clean. Don’t be discouraged by this being a tattoo shop. It was my first time in one. You don’t have to be covered in tattoos and piercings to go there! They knew what they were doing, and took the time to study her ears and figure out the best placement and angle, and everyone looked and gave their opinion. No shaky hands here! I would recommend them to anyone.
Update: almost a week later, and whenever I ask my daughter “how are your ears doing?” She says “they don’t even feel like they were pierced.”
