And what business is it of YOURS?!

August 4th, 2012 at 12:23 am


Ha, my sense of humor is back! Don't know where I lost it, but I almost let my undies get into a bunch about this.

My younger daughter wanted double ear piercings and last year I took her to Claires, a bad move - the holes were at an odd angle and caused scar tissue. She still wanted them, so I took her to a tattoo parlor which also does piercings (yes, piercings of all kinds according to the price list). Yes, I put my 13 year old's ears in the hands of a tattoo-ed, very long dread-lock headed man, who was polite and kind and used a needle (to avoid further scar tissue) and he put in ear loops and gave more clear and concise information about aftercare. And yes, I took her and yes, there were offensive tattoos, but guess what? There were very nice religious ones, too. And guess what, I don't think we're damned to hell because the music was uncensored (heard a few f-bombs). And while I don't think I'd like my daughter to work there, or even go there for a tattoo, she's my child and yes, I took her.

And it cost me $40! I so LOVE IT when people think they've got the right to tell me WHAT I SHOULD BE DOING! And I bet if my girls and I turned up at Mass wearing mantillas (lace head coverings) there'd be talk about that!

HAR-D-HAR-HAR!

    I got my ears double pierced when I was a senior in high school (I was 17, my mom took me) and when we got home, my dad had a fit! That is/was as crazy as I get. No tats (not a fan) and no piercins of any other body parts (not a fan)

    I get all my daughter's piercings at the local tattoo parlor. Not that she's got a lot. She wanted her lip pierced and her belly button pierced. They are more knowledgable and know what they are doing.

    The proof is in the pudding. That dreadlocked guy was a professional who obviously offered you some insurance that he knew what he was doing... and that leads to better results. We probably cannot expect the same results from a place staffed largely with high school kids working part time after school. Wink Jerry
