I have a lot of questions about belly button piercings
Okay so, I personally haven't gotten my belly button done, but my two best friends are. Yesterday, I went to get my cartilage pierced and my friends asked about belly button piercings so I hope my information helps you.
According the Robin (the piercing expert, whose had her belly button pierced) said it hurts less than getting the cartilage pierced. Your belly button is really soft tissue so it would only be like a pinch.
Honestly it doesn't matter whether your skinny or bigger because everyone has soft tissue around their belly button.
There is really no set cost for a belly button piercing. You would have to go to the piercing place where you are thinking about getting it done and find out their prices.
From what I've heard there is not an age limit. It is probably best if your over 13. Depending on the piercing place's rules you might have to get a parent to sign for you. At the place I went to if you were over 14 years old you didn't need a parent to sign for you.
Well, they pretty much just stick the needle through and that is about it. So, it is pretty fast.
The only way it would make you sick is if it was infected. But, even that wouldn't make you physically sick.
Proper piercing places would explain and show to you during the process that all needles/other tools/rings are from brand new packages that have been sterilized in a machine like they use at a hospital. You don't need to look at the needle but your should be watching to make sure it is from a new, unopened package. Otherwise, you shouldn't even get it done.
The only reason why people get infections is because they don't take care of it or the piercing place was not sanitary. So, you can avoid the risk of infection by first watching to make sure all needles and tools are from packages that have not been opened. Those tools have been sterilized in the sanitary machines like they hospitals use. If the needle is in a new, unopened package that shows that it is brand new. Next, if you properly clean your belly button with the proper cleansers and as many times as your suppose to a day I guarantee you will not get an infection.
Your suppose to wait about three months before going swimming in chlorine. The reason why they say this is because the chlorine will dry out the piercing. That is why many people get their belly button pierced in winter then it is okay for the summer time. If you do get it done in the summer and want to go swimming you can buy large waterproof band aides that will fit over the whole piercing and keep it dry. Only use those band aides when you are in the water and take it off after you are done swimming.
They say you should wait about three months. Also, there are proper types of rings you should wear in your belly button. If you have an innie belly button that is deep you should wear a ring type of belly button. If you have an innie belly button that isn't very deep you can wear and barbell type. The reason why they suggest this is because if your belly button is very deep the barbell will be constantly sinking into your belly button and you will always have to pull it out which is irritating.
These are my experiences, but everyone's is different.
Answer: I thought it was around a two, seriously I thought the most painful part was when he cleaned me belly button out with the q-tip before he pierced it.
Answer: I don't think it really matters.
Answer: mine cost me 70, that was including taxes and I got three pieces of jewelry. one to put in at the shop, and two to change it with once it was healed.
Answer: usually have to be around 16 years of age, some shops won't do it unless your 18.
Answer: It was fast, while I was waiting for him to fix the clamp, my best friend who was there with me looked at me and said "It's done" and I didn't believe her at first aha. What I thought was the clamp being fixed was actually the needle going through my skin.
Answer: all depends on how you handle pain and how much you have yourself worked up, after you get it done just sit up straight for a few minutes before getting up and walking just in case.
Answer: no. trying to look at the needle with make you tense up which is not a good thing. some piercers won't even let you look at it with a mirror until it's finished.
Answer: if you don't wash it properly. Salt water washes and stuff are not necessary, ask a doctor, just wash with your regular soap, don't change soaps just to clean it (or start using a new anti-bacterial soap), finding out you have an allergy to a new soap while cleaning out the wound wouldn't be fun.
Answer: It is recommended that you wait a few months before hand, diseases are easily transmitted through water especially if you have a wound, common sense would tell you that. Try to get the piercing in the winter time, that way it will be all healed up by the time summer rolls around.
Answer: This all depends on your healing rate, anywhere between 5 to 6 months should be good. That is about the time it takes for the new skin to grow through. Trying to change it any earlier could damage the new skin's process actually making the healing time longer.
Heyy :] I've had my bellybutton pierced since I was 12, so i'll fill this out with all my knowledge.
I hope this helped :]
how bad is the pain 1-10 (10 being really bad)? The pain is about a 1 or 2. ITS not as bad as people say. I had my top done, but it got ripped out [so dont wear dangley belly rings till its healed] and juss a few days ago I got my bottem done.
does it hurt more if your really skinny or bigger or does it matter? Im sure it doesnt matter. Different people have different pain levels.
how much does it usually cost? Mine cost $30. Usually the vary on the type of belly ring you get.
is there an age limit? You have to be at least of the age 15-17 with parent consent. I did get my top done at age 16, but it ripped. However I am 18. I didnt need that parent consent this time.
how fast is it over with? Well the piercing with get ready, tell you to take a deep breath and let out, so soon as your done letting out your breath, its all over with.
could it make me sick? I highly recommend you not look at the needle. Look up at the ceailing or close your eyes and think of something else.
should I look @ the needle? Absolutly not. You will get freaked and not go thru with it, or you will be completely scared and uptight when the needle goes thru, then it will hurt like a mofo.
can it get infected easily? yes. Clean it with sea salt and water. No rubbing alcohol and no hydrogen peroxcide or anything of that nature. never use table salt and water. Only use what you peircer gives you, or sea salt and puritfied water, and antibacterial soap.
can I go swimming after? Wait until its healed. Soft skin doesnt heal fast.
how long do I have to wait until I can change it? You could wait 2 weeks, but it will be sore to chage. So wait a month. Before you change it, clean the area, clean the new belly ring, stick it in, and clean agian. NEVER leave you bely ring out for a long period of time. it could be a btch getting back in.
how bad is the pain 1-10 (10 being really bad)? 0 - I got mine pierced for my 15th birthday. it was completely painless. It felt like a little pinch. and it was over. no pain what so ever. But, It can vary with other people, but I would definately say the pain would be no more than a 3.
does it hurt more if your really skinny or bigger or does it matter? it's hurt more the skinnier you are, because there isn't enough skin there to actually grasp, so you have to go deeper, and the further past the epidermis you get, the worse the pain. But. It shouldn't unless you are SUPER SUPER SUPER skinny like a pole.
how much does it usually cost? body piercings are usually around 40 bucks.
is there an age limit? at most body piercing/tattoo shops you have to be 18 without a parent's consent. or have under 18 if you have parent/gaurdian present.
how fast is it over with? it seriously takes all of about 5 seconds.
could it make me sick? no.
should I look @ the needle? I watched the whole thing. it depends on whether or not you like that type of thing. if you are super nervous about it, I wouldn't look.
can it get infected easily? depends on how well you take care of it. DONT USE ALCOHOL! I repeat! DONT USE ALCOHOL! It will dry it up really quick! And you won't be able to change the ring for a LONG time, and it can cause an infection too.
can I go swimming after? not at least for two months, that's how long it takes to heal enough to change and be normal. after 6 months its completely healed.
how long do I have to wait until I can change it? I waited two months, and when I got the other ring through it oozed out blood. I would recoment at least 2-3 months.
how bad is the pain 1-10 (10 being really bad)? everyone has a different pain tolerance. for me it was only about a 3.
does it hurt more if your really skinny or bigger or does it matter? if you don't have a lot of skin above your belly button they may have to clamp it and I've heard that it hurts worse when you get it clamped.
how much does it usually cost? anywhere between $30-$60 depending on where you get it pierced at.
is there an age limit? only if you don't have a parent with you.
how fast is it over with? just a matter of seconds. first, you have to tuck your shirt under your bra so they can draw the dot where it will be even then you lay down on the table, they stick a needle through, put the ring in, then your done! then they lecture you on how important it is to take care of it and blah blah.. lol
could it make me sick? if your allergic to the type of ring or something.
should I look @ the needle? I looked at mine. haha. it doesn't really matter.. I don't have a fear of needles like a lot of people do.
can it get infected easily? if you don't take care of it.
can I go swimming after? your not supposed to go swimming in pools with chlorine until it heals. you can swim in saline pools, but if you do go swimming in chlorified water, I recommend you put a band-aid or some kind of cover over it.
how long do I have to wait until I can change it? anywhere from 1-6 months depending on how fast yours heals.
how bad is the pain 1-10 (10 being really bad)? -> matters if you can take pain for me a 2..but then again I had 70 stitches..so I guess I can take pain. :)
does it hurt more if your really skinny or bigger or does it matter? ->im 110 and 13. and it didnt make a difference then my sister whos 18.haha shes was crying and I was fine so maybe age mattrs haha :)
how much does it usually cost? -> mine was free. my aunt did it; but some $45 to $80 dependin on if you buy a riong there or if you already have one.
is there an age limit? ->not if you have a parent. :)
how fast is it over with? -> like 15 seconds fr the needle and 2 min for the ring and everything. but the clamp hurts more than the needle so you might not even notice. :P
could it make me sick? -> ehhh. matters what you call sick...shitt made me tired.
should I look @ the needle? -> well needles dont scare me but I dont advise you cause thats the only thing youll be thinking about when you get it done :P
can it get infected easily? -> if you dont take care of it.
can I go swimming after? -> WAITTT!!! it will sting if you g too early. defenitely not the same day haha :)
how long do I have to wait until I can change it? -> I waited 2 months just to be on the safe side. hehe...twirl it around at night just so it doesnt get crusty or stuck in your sleep.
I have a lot of questions about belly button piercings
for me ? I felt the needle go through, but I have low pain tolerance, so maybe that's why because all of my friends said it was nothing for them.
doesn't matter.
mine cost (I had it done two years ago) I think $70 (CDN) ?
sixteen without parent's consent.
it depends on the piercer. mine was quick. like a minute
depends on your pain tolerance, and how you are with needles and piercings.
I think it would be kinda hard too..
yeah. anything from fabric softeners, to the type of material shirts/dresses you wear can irritate it.
I would recommend you to not go swimming in pools (the chlorine will dry it out), hot tubs, lakes, beaches, ponds, rivers, oceans.. (bacteria can cause infection). I didn't go swimming until three months after when I was allowed to change it.
I had to wait three months. every piercer has a different time-arrangement, so yeah.
The pain will be about a 4-5 , It all depends on how you take pain, but it always hurts less then you think.
I think It would hurt a bit more if you were thinner, but I am not sure.
At my piercers, it says it is 43 dollars, plus the jewelry, so about 48 $
Age limit? Well, I think any piercer will do it if you have a parent's permission, and the parent is there with you. I think some places, you would have to be 16 or older.
It's surprising how fast it is. When I got my lip done, I asked him to go really fast, so when he put the needle through, it only hurt for.. A second, and I am a big wimp when it comes to needles. I think it would only hurt when the piercer tightens the hoop, if you get a hoop.
I think It MAY make you sick, if you take really bad care of it.
No, you shouldn't look at the needle. It may get you all worked up, and you may flinch and the piercer might mess up. I didn't look at the needle. Keep your eyes shut, or don't look at your belly.
I think It can get infected easily, so take good care of it. Wash it about.. Twice a day.
Definatly not. Public pools or lakes have lots of germs, and you can get an infection. Wait until the piercing is healed.
Six weeks to four months. Four months for it to fully heal. And yes, go back to him so he can change it.
how bad is the pain 1-10 (10 being really bad)? Like a 1-2
does it hurt more if your really skinny or bigger or does it matter? I don't think so, I'm average probably on the bigger side and it didn't really hurt
how much does it usually cost? Mine cost about $65(CND) jewelery included
is there an age limit? 16 years of age most places
how fast is...it over with? Mine took like 2 seconds literally.
could it make me sick? They make you eat something or drink something with sugar in it so you don't get sick or pas out
should I look @ the needle? I wanted to but it was practically impossible, you lay down and its really hard to look. Just make sure they take it out of a package.
can it get infected easily? Mine never but it pusses clear/whitish for like 1-2 months afterwards. Just make sure its not green and clean it 3-4 times a day with the stuff they give you (no peroxide or rubbing alcohol)
can I go swimming after? Ask your piercer its like a month or something
how long do I have to wait until I can change it? I got mine done two months ago and I'm still waiting for it to heal completely with the same jewelery it was pierced with. Usually 3 months or when it's healed completely.
Good luck :)
how bad is the pain 1-10 (10 being really bad)? maybe a 2
does it hurt more if your really skinny or bigger or does it matter? im not sure. but I think its about the same
how much does it usually cost? places around me are all $40. but I have heard of $50 & $60 in other places
is there an age limit? I think most places will do you as long a parent signs for it (if your under18) some places do have theire own rules about stuff like that though.
how fast is it over with? I did mine at home, but it didnt take real long. and it dpesnt professionally either (I've seen it done) bout 10-15 mins I guess.
could it make me sick? like throw up(I suppose it could,if you got all worked up about it)
should I look @ the needle? thats really up to you. some people can take it,they just cant look at it. and others do look (like me). it just depends on you.
can it get infected easily? it can,but its also easy to avoid. keep it clean,and only touch it when you wash your hands.
can I go swimming after? not til it heals (3months)
how long do I have to wait until I can change it? like 3months. 4depending on how its healing.
how bad is the pain 1-10 (10 being really bad)? I would say the pain is about a 2 maybe even a 1. the piercing doesnt hurt its the clamp.
does it hurt more if your really skinny or bigger or does it matter? it shouldnt matter.
how much does it usually cost? Mine was $50. it depends on the type of body jewlery you pick.
is there an age limit? if your 16 you can do it without parental consent, but anyone younger must have parental consent.
how fast is it over with? it shouldnt be anymore than a few seconds. real quick.
could it make me sick? no, unless you have a really weak stomach then dont look at the needle.
should I look @ the needle? when I got mine done I look at it & then I kinda freaked. so I would recommend not looking at it.
can it get infected easily? of course, if you dont take the proper care of it while its healing then you can run into some problems.
can I go swimming after? wait intill its healed because you dont want the bacteria in the water to go inside you newly pierced hole.
how long do I have to wait until I can change it? about a month.
how bad is the pain 1-10 (10 being really bad)? I acctually couldn't feel it as they freeze your belly now :)
does it hurt more if your really skinny or bigger or does it matter? I'm Pretty small but my friend who is bigger just said the same as me :)
how much does it usually cost? Mine was £25 with a gold stud. silver was £15
is there an age limit? I think it varies around 14years
how fast is it over with? I was still sitting on the bed with my eys closed when she said it had been done 2 minutes ago
could it make me sick? Hmm Yeah it can, mine got infected, only because my friends cat kept sitting on my tummy, but im allergic and it caused me to faint, but that was the allergic reaction.
should I look @ the needle? Its not big so if you want ?
can it get infected easily? Nope, not if you keep it clean and put the antiseptic on it 2-4 times a day :)
can I go swimming after? Yeah, the chlorine doesn't effect it :)
how long do I have to wait until I can change 6 Weeks or how long the piercer tells you

I got my belly button pierced yesterday and im 14
I have my belly button pierced and I was so scared when I first got it. I was literally holding my moms hand with my eyes closed and all. truthfully I didnt feel anything at all. I didnt notice when the guys stuck the needle in. grab your belly buttin and pinch it hard, you'll notice that it doesnt hurt.
Doesnt matter.
if you get it done at the mall it costs like 50$ or more. when I got it done it only cost 25$ and it was at a tatoo and piercing shop.
4.unfortunatly, yes. you have to be 16 or older to get it done without a parent
under a minute
never
your not gunna be able to look at the needle because your going to be laying down on your back and most likely looking at the ceiling.
yes, if you dont take care of it it definitly will
of course, it might sting if its at the beach because of the salt.

All piercers will provide you with their own detailed aftercare instructions, but I will give ou mine. 1. The pain is very mild, about a 3. 2. It doesn't matter at all 3. Usually costs about $40(CDN) if you have your own jewlry, and $60(CDN) if you don't 4. usually you have to be 16 to get a piercing without parental concent! 5. It only takes a few seconds 6. Most piercers will tell you to go eat or drink something to bring up your blood sugar 7. if you are afraid of needles I wouldnt advize you to take a look 8. if you don't follow the aftercare instructions it can 9. It's not recomended that you go swimming in the first two weeks 10. Usually you should wait about one month to change it, but you can do it sooner if things are healing properly, and it hasn't been infected
~Tiffany~
I have mine done, and I love it. It's been over a month so far, but I still do not feel it's ready to be changed. Some days it hurts a little, but never as bad as the day I got it. My lip piercing hurt 10X worse. Just remember, everyone handles pain differently. If someone says a piercing didn't hurt, they are lying. It might not have affected them much, but it had to of hurt them.
:]
look at Mine :]
If you really want then you should go for it, it may hurt at the start but afterwards you can hardly tell that you have it peirced. just be careful and follow the rules and care instructions.
if you want to know this stuff, the piercer will tell you more than enough. and if youre this worried about the pain and how long it takes, then id recommend to not get it done.
1.the pain for me was a 2 or 1.,didn't hurt me at all.
2.I don't really think it would matter,I'm skinny and it didn't hurt.
3.mine was $35 at a tattoo shop.
4.the place where I got mine done you had to be 13,I was 14.
5.its very fast bout 8 seconds.
6.I don't think it would make you sick enless your very nervous.
7.why would you look at it? lol no..close your eyes..duh(:
8.it can get infected verry easily,just buy the cleaner where you get the piercing at or hydrogen perocide.
9.I went swimming like 3 days after I got it,just clean it really good afterwards.
10.I waited 6 months,but the pain may be a problem,but I can handle it really easily.
i had mine done nearly 4 years ago now and it doesn't hurt it just feels like a big pinch so it hurts for like 2 seconds after that it didnt hurt i didnt have mine clamped or numbed its worse if it clamped because after the clamp is off the blood starts to rush back to that area . its not that bad after its just feels like you have pulled a muscle if you stretch dont be scared all the girls in my year at high school all got it done and we all agreed tat it didnt hurt :) just make sure that you clean it loads so that it heals nicely dont use salt water that doesn't work use savlon spray
hey, I'm 15 and I got my bellybutton pierced in december, on my birthday. I don't think it really hurt at all and most of the people I know said that it doesn't hurt. Except for the people who did it theirselves, they said it hurt. It took me about 5 minutes, and my friend 2 minutes because my skin is soo thick, & I'm skinny. but my other friend is kinda big, and she got hers done, and she said it didn't hurt her at all. you just have to keep it really clean! they are so easy to get infected, but I don't find it hurts that bad... I've kind of become use to it! hahhaa.
1.about a 3.5, it only hurt when the needle first went in. 2.my friend is skinny and it hurt her and I am a bit bigger than her and it didn't really hurt me. 3.mine cost around £20. 4.nope but if you are younger than 16 you have to get your parent/guardian to sign a form. 5.about 2 mins? 6.not sure 7.I wouldn't 8.it depends where you get it done 9.im not sure about straight away but you dont have to stop swimming completely I dont think. 10.it should say on a letter they give youu.
Hey . I'm getting my belly button pierced in around two weeks and I just want a little more information on it :S Well I'm not really good with pain but I can definatley handle it to about a five maybe six . 1.Im just wondering if I should get them to numb it first ? 2.The needle is so big how does it not hurt ? 3. How bad is the pain after ? 4.Does the clamp hurt a lot ? Im not scared I just need to know .
Thanks .
Okay Im only asnwering number one because you have a lot of other answers. But honestly I've had my eyebrow, tongue, tragus, nose, lip, and belly button pierced. And my belly buttons hurt the most. I seriously would give that a 9...I don't know maybe because I had it done before and I had scar tissue the second time. But even the first time...I would give it about a 6 or 7.
I want mine done and im scared about the pain but after reading this it got no higher than a 2 so I think it will be okay, now got to persuade my mum :)
tips I picked up: DONT LOOK AT THE NEEDLE DONT HURT - THE CLAMP HURTS A TINY BIT THINK ABOUT SOMETHING THAT MAKES YOU HAPPY TAKE SUGARY FOOD AND DRINK FOR AFTER hope it helps :)
it dosnt hurt if its your first belly ring. if you get it pierced again, it will hurt more b/c of extra scar tissue and nerves. it dosnt hurt at all, but to help the pain...do not look at the needle because it could scare you. they tell you not to go swimming after, but it can actually clean the belly ring.
Me and my best friend are getting it done.. I'm soo excited, yet soo nervous! Would you reccomend us doin anything that will make us get more scyched? Haha! I've got my cartlidge pierced and I didn't think that hurt. I got that done when I was 11, now I'm thirteen.

I got mu bellybutton done about three months ago and I love it!! On a scale 1-10 for pain it was about a 5 for me!! I think and heard its probably the most painful piercing but I don't know it hurt pretty bad
I just pierced my own belly button myself, like half an hour ago. I used alcohol prep pads, and a disinfected needle and peroxide, and numbed my whole navel. now im just scared for infection...
mine didn't hurt at all... I thought he was clamping the thing around that they put the needle thru, but he was actually piercing it!
9 ... Everyone are stupid ... course you can go swimming because the chlorine heals it quicker
if you do go swimming the chorine will clean it not make it get infected x
How long after having it done do I have to wait untill I can swim ? x
Im 10 and do you think I could get mine done and im very tall ? x
I love my belly pericing :) my fabourite one by far:)
it don't hurt I got it dne when I was 14
