    But it's not the persons fault either, why should guns be allowed to be used if they cause problems??? Is there not any health and safety regulations with regards to body piercing? And a lot of people DON'T KNOW that guns are not appropriate procedure.
    er...no there's not! With regards health and safety, good old Ireland has nothing and good piercing/tattoo parlours just implement it themselves.
    Somewhere like Claires is just there to make their money basically.

    what the hell? how could it *not* be the persons fault?

    if your going to get shot with a gun thats putting a foreign object into ur body you should make sure u know what exactly is going on. if you dont, your an idiot.

    A) Call it my need to have expensive clothes....

    I don't do em anymore. I got promoted, so it's coola. Besides, it's actually not all that bad. I used rant about it when I started like, but in fairness. The earrings are sterelised beforehand. Fair enough, we wipe the instruments down with an alcohol pad, it's grand. No part of that instrument actually comes in contact with the persons ear. If it was so dangerous I reckon it'd of been banned by now.

    How many kids are gonna let ya shove a needle thro their ears in the first place? We do a thing called the 6week check up. And I can honestly say about90% of people who come back are grand. No infection. No soreness. Nothing. That's gotta account in fairness.

    As a girl with ALOT of piercings, I can undersrtand where you're coming from. And I was the same, until I realised it's not all that bad. Sure, I'd prefer not to do them, but a job's a job. Where else as I gonna get a job that lets me wear my facial metal?!

    It wouldn't be banned, as the indsutry isn't legislated for.

    Actually, it is.

    90% isn't a "success" rate to be proud of tbh.

    I could understand a clamper saying that about his job. Not a gun-piercer. If you'd prefer not to do it [i.e. put people in danger of infection] then get a new job.

    Have you looked? I worked in the Civil Service with my piercings, no problems no questions asked. I'm sure you can find a job that pays as well or better than Claire's.

    Suppose. But i do love everyone I work with...

    Infection wise? No matter what piercing ya get there's ALWAYS a risk of infection. It depends mainly on the persons hygiene standards and their willingness to keep it in good sahpe.

    I got my nose pierced with a gun before and a girl got her ears done with the same uncleaned gun 2 seconds before me... dodgy! A piercer once told me that you shouldn't even pierce a cow with a gun!!! Never mind a person! So no, avoid getting pierced by gun... it's not clean- the piercers usually have zero clue about clenliness and it's just not right to shoot something through yourself!
