Belly Button Peircing


Question Posted Sunday February 4 2007, 7:18 pm

16/F

My 17th birthday is coming up in March and on my birthday weekend I happen to have dance competitions. Its going on it OR and thats where my sister lives. I really want to get my belly button peirced. My sister has a good peircing place in mind but what I'm asking you about is basically what to expect. Do they use piercing guns for a belly button piercing or a needle? I know pain differs from one person to the next.

Just some answers is all I require.
Thanks,
AG

Any piercing parlour which uses guns should be steered WELL clear of. They spread diseases and put you at a higher risk of catching an infection.
It's a bit hard to pierce a belly button with a gun though ;] so yes, needles are used.
You probably will be clamped too. People say the clamp hurts more than the needle. I, personally, have never been clamped so I can't really comment on that part, but don't worry about the needle itself. It's a sharp pain for such a small amount of time. Bearing in mind, it will ache for a few days afterwards because belly buttons are in an awkward place, not allowing you to bend/get dressed etc properly.
Follow cleaning advice and soak it with warm sea salt water for when your piercing feels irritated. Works wonders.
Best of luck!

It doesnt really hurt. Its just a pinch. Its done with a needle. They basically tell you to breathe in and out and then they just do it real quick. && thats it. It might bleed too.

Good luck

They use a clamp to hold your bellybutton, and the needle goes through. It's quick. I can't tell you if it'll hurt though because like you said you knew, pain differs from person to person.
