Costs around $25, I would say. It hurts like you're getting a shot when the needle is going through, but you're fine afterward, unless you get an infection. There may be inflammation and reddening around the area. This is normal, but don't touch it or put any sort of medication on it. It takes 6 months to 1 year to heal, depending on how fast your body responds to wounds. I would suggest changing the jewelry after about an year has passed to be safe. Choose a nice belly ring, like one made out of surgical steel so you don't risk any allergies. Make sure the place is legitimate. Your piercer should go over all this and more with you. If you have any more questions, you can drop a question in my inbox.

Piercings hurt differently for different people.
Personally, I've had my ears and other things pierced several times, and the pain barely bothers me anymore.

If you've had your ears pierced, which I'm guessing you have, but I don't know. The pain level is about the same, I think. It's just in a different area and feels a little different. When it actually happens, it only lasts for a few seconds at most. But afterwards the spot may become sore.

Of course, they will have to use a rod/pin thing. You can't get a good piercing out of a gun. Guns should only be used on lobe/top of the ear piercings. Look up youtube videos to see how it's usually done.

I would recommend just cleaning how they tell you. For me, I was given a bag of sea salt, and a cup that looked like a shotglass. I mixed it with water, used a Q-tip and cleaned the place. Just follow instructions :)

*Get it done by a professional, not your friend or mom*

Costs vary depending on where you go, it shouldn't be too expensive. But if it seems like 'a lot' to you, remember this is a change to your body and appearance :) It's worth it.

The person who does it will tell you how long it should take to heal. You should move it around, etc. The best thing you could do is wait until it's not sore anymore, where you can move it around/twist it without ANY pain.

So basically, follow their directions, and hope for the best.
Take a tylenol before you go to do it. :)
Clean it, change it out when you're ready, and love it.
