1 /5 Julie Kök: Claire’s is nostalgic for me when I was little and got to pick out earrings and accessories. I still appreciate their wide variety of selection in accessories and everything girly, I’m pleading that Claire’s as a company stops piercing ears. We went here recently to let our daughter pick out a few things for herself and saw the store’s only employee put gloves on in preparation to pierce a woman’s ears, come check us out at the register, use hand sanitizer on top of the gloves she still had on, and go back to the woman waiting in the chair. She did NOT remove her gloves at all and used HAND SANITIZER on top of them to “clean them”. I hope that woman’s ears don’t get infected!
