My DD (15) wants a second lobe piercing in both ears. The jewellery shop where she got her ears done 2 years ago in the West End has closed. I'm obviously not going anywhere near Claire's so am probably looking at a proper piercing studio which tend to be attached to tattoo parlors.
I am a bit at a loss as there are so many in Glasgow but as I'm not into tattoos or piercings myself, I don't know which ones are good. I'm scared off by places that say they do genital piercings but maybe that's me just being squeemish!
I haven't worn pierced earrings myself since my late teens. I suffered terribly from swollen infected lobes that was probably kicked off by a dodgy nickel earring and then meant I couldn't even tolerate gold. However I'm thinking about trying to get my ears repierced with surgical steel or titanium and seeing if I can tolerate them. My body chemistry may have changed in 30 years and maybe I might not react?
But anyway, first things first - does anyone have any recommendations for a reputable piercer?
