1. Around a 6-7 when its being done.
2. I dont think it matters
3. it depends, like $35 - $70
4. 16
5. again it depends where you go, around 15- 35 mins
6. Possibly, you can feel real faint afterwards but it depends
7. Defently not, close your eyes or look away
8. It can, But you just have to be careful and take lots of care
9. Your not meant to for atleast a week or two but I went the day after and nothing happend so just as long as you clean it afterwards
10. usually about 5-8 weeks, the person who peirces it should tell you.

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.

These are my experiences, but everyone's is different.

1. how bad is the pain 1-10 (10 being really bad)?

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.

2. does it hurt more if your really skinny or bigger or does it matter?

Answer: I don't think it really matters.

3. how much does it usually cost?

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.

4. is there an age limit?

Answer: usually have to be around 16 years of age, some shops won't do it unless your 18.

5. how fast is it over with?

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.

6. could it make me sick?

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.

7. should I look @ the needle?

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.

8. can it get infected easily?

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.

9. can I go swimming after?

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.

10. how long do I have to wait until I can change it?

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.

1. its a fast squeeze.
2. um well I'm considered skinny (size 0-2) and it didn't hurt at all I actually laughed but I have a high tolerance for pain. its all different for people.
3. mine was 60$ only because of the barbell I picked.
4. no there isn't but as long as your under 18 you have to have a legal guardian.
5. the piercing is less then 5 seconds but cleaning and marking the spot a totally of maybe 5 minutes.
6. you do get a little dizzy after. but sick no.
7. I looked at the needle it wasn't bad at all but if your scared then don't.
8. yes it can. its an open wound.
9. I went swimming the week it was done haha I never listen but if I were you wait maybe 2-3 weeks tops.
10. my good friend is a excellent piercer if you want a dangle I would reccomment you wait atleast 6 months because the weight will irritate your belly button

and when you get it done walk into the parlor EXCITED like im guna get it done NOT scared. excited makes it funner and easier being scared makes things worse

1. how bad is the pain 1-10 (10 being really bad)? Like a 1-2

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

3. how much does it usually cost? Mine cost about $65(CND) jewelery included

4. is there an age limit? 16 years of age most places

5. how fast is...it over with? Mine took like 2 seconds literally.

6. 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

7. 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.

8. 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)

9. can I go swimming after? Ask your piercer its like a month or something

10. 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 happy
