Claire's

Love the buy 3 get 3 free option on your purchases. Additionally, like the clearance prices on items that have been in store for awhile.

My partner went in 2 days ago to get their ear pierced horrible wait now 2 days later the earing fell out and I can't get thru to someone

Piercing fell out after a day, complete trash quality.

Great staff. Very accommodating. I got everything I needed here.

I would not suggest anyone to go here for ear piercings. To the mother's that bring their daughters here for that please find a professional studio. Many years ago I made the mistake of getting my lobes done here. The first time I got my second holes done. They turned out uneven between my ears, due to the gun not being able to get proper positioning. Same with my third holes I got done here, my ears were so red and were probably infected I had to just take them out and let them overgrow. It was not easy to put jewellery in the holes as a bump formed inside my ear. Employees at mall stores such as here, Icing, etc, do not actually have proper training to do ear piercings and the piercing gun can cause so many problems. Look it up. It's common for people to have this happen to their ears and it isn't just a problem only I had. In Nanaimo there's a lovely shop called Good Form where all of the workers are trained and qualified and they use needles and have a sanitary environment. It's so much more worth it to spend a little more money at a place like that. I've had my helix and nostril done there and no problems have occurred. So please, just try to avoid ear piercings here, it will save to have it done properly.

I have heard nightmares, but I'm glad I called Clairs in Nanaimo! My daughter turned 6 years old and wanted her ears pierced for her birthday. During my call I voiced my concerns. She informed me she's the manager, she has been there for 5 years, and pierced 1000's of ears! Being a mother herself definitely put my mind at ease. My daughter was told it's her body, and she could stop at anytime. The actual piercings were over within seconds. No tears (except me), no pain, and nothing but smiles!5/5 I'm glad I called and got the facts!

Just don't ever take your kids to get their ears pierced here. Ive always heard mixed reviews about getting piercing from here. For my daughter 6th birthday she wanted them pierced but they would never heal!! It went on for over 6 months with frequent cleaning and they were always painful to the touch, lesson learned we took them out and will definitely go to a professional next time around.

Staff was very friendly and patient while piercing my daughters ears. Great ladies that work there!

Great place for my girls. Clean store, friendly staff.
