is it safee to buy a belly button ring at hot topic?

I wouldn’t worry so much about the belly ring itself. I would worry how you are piercing it, infection, etc…

i just wanna make sure cause i dont want it to get infected. how long should i have it in for? it says 6 weeks. should i go longer than 6 weeks. the box thingy it came in says nothing about being sterling silver soo how would i know?

it says it is surgical stainless steel.

Are you talking about as the jewellery the piercing is actually done with??

surgical steel is the most common and best thing to use in piercing jewelrey, so yes, surgical steel is fine. s for how long. that depends…if you dont alreay have a piercing there youl need to get it porfesionally done then leave the jewelrey in it for at least 6 months, if its alredy done, youll need to have had it in for around 6 months (so it can heal) before changing the jewelrey

Brand names don’t really speak for the quality of the jewelry so much as the material it’s made from. As long as it’s in a sterile container you should be fine using it. However, you’ll have to make sure you’re using a safe metal as some people have specific metal allergies, which can also cause a piercing to become infected or reject jewelry. I know surgical steel is generally safe which is what Morbid Metals’ products are usually made of, however I also know they sell some acrylic things as well which is a very porous material, which you should avoid if your piercing is new/still healing.

The only problem I’ve had in using the Morbid Metals brand from Hottopic is that I find their selections are rather limited and rarely carry the size I want. I ended up having to go online to find the correct size for the curved barbell I wear in my lip.

no i bought another ring for after the healing is done.

6 months? ughh thats a longg time.

of course, as long as your belly button is healed first
