Made the mistake of getting Olivia's ears pierced at the mall. They didn't heal right and I felt awful. He wanted to have them redone so I contacted the girl who did my piercings - Desiree, she works at The Quilian Tattoo in Allentown.
Livi and I went to see her and she explained the entire procedure to Olivia. A few months passed. I found this article about why going to a professional is better than going to the mall: Don't Pierce Your Daughter's Ears at the Mall
After reading that article and speaking to Desiree, I was convinced having her ears pierced professionally was the right thing to do. Yesterday Cherie and I took her to have her ears pierced by Desiree. Desiree had us come in before the shop opened - which I thought was extremely nice!
Having her ears prepped:
First ear:
Second ear:
Did it hurt? Yup. Did it last long? Nope. Is she happy? Yup. And as a mother, I am so glad had it done the right way!
Little miss Olivia here decided she was going to get her ears pierced the right way instead of going to the mall. She came in for a consult a couple months ago then came in today to get her earlobes done for her birthday. Happy Birthday Olivia! You did awesome!
