Which place hurts more to get your ears pierced? Piercing Pagoda or Claire's?

i already asked a similar question, but i forgot to add this one (again, no tolerance to pain, and i don't want any other answers like "it only feels like a pinch," i already heard that a lot...
p.s. please don't say it depends on person-say about your experience

Pagoda sucks I got my daughters pierced at age 3 months there and common sence have 2 people one on each side piercing her they had 1 lady who was not patient and so slow. I ended up doing the 2 nd ear and complained. My daughter screamed because it kept bleeding she pierced it in the wrong spot not where she dotted the hole with the pen. Totally missed. Bad experience for us

I went to Pagoda and they pierced my ear crooked but my younger sister went to Claire's and she didn't even cry, and she was 7. But it might just be the people and how well they handle it.

I have five piercings in each ear, I got the first two done by Claires and the rest done by pagoda and to be honest it all felt the same

you really couldn't tell the difference? not even a teeny one? i'm very picky and scared about piercing..

no not at all, I mean I think the only difference is at Claires they do both sides at the same time and a pagoda they do one ear at a time, but again it's the same feeling. I really think it depends on what part of your ear you're getting pierced

It hurts either way. But it's not the store that pierces your ears, it is the people working at the stores.

Have a tattoo shop do it...much better to do with a needle and forceps instead of the gun!...it doesn't hurt at all though!!

but, then don't they have to remove the needle then push the earring in and won't that hurt? (btw, i heard tattoo shops have numbing cream for piercing, is that true?)

Never heard about numbing cream...the needle slides out and the earring goes in all in one shot !!
