Belly Button Piercing?
Im 16 and planning on getting my belly button pierced. I was wondering how long it would take to heal, how much it would cost, how old i have to be? Also how much does it hurt? I have a medium pain tolerance, ive dislocated my knee before but i dont think it the best with pain. So anything and everything you could tell me would be great thanks! :)

I also got my bellybutton pierced when i was 16, you just need a parents consent. It was $35 I believe, and it hurt pretty bad..but its tolerable and well worth it (: It is sore for the first few days, and you have to be really careful not to catch it on anything like in the shower using a lufa, on your blankets, on counters, seat belts etc. As long as you clean it with warm sea-salt water every night it won't get infected or anything. Mine was pretty well off and in a well-healed state after about 3 months (of course it takes longer to COMPLETELY heal though) And I swam with it a few weeks after getting it, which you aren't suppose to do but it didn't cause problems.
I say don't be worried about it, and go get it done! It's worth it (:
Hope i helped, and good luck <3

You must be 18 years old in the US or have parents consent. It costs about $60 and the pain only lasts for one quick second- not bad at all. I too have dislocated my knee and it is the worst pain ever besides giving birth so if you made it through the dislocation you should be just fine. :) It does take awhile to heal but it really should feel fine after a week or so. i used hibecleanse to speed up the healing for mine. I no longer have a belly ring but the hole still looks pierced. i guess that will never fade away. All and all if you want it get it you can always take it out. good luck!

I don't know about the cost or legal age for piercing of belly buttons, I'd imagine the cost varies according to the person doing it. I've no personal experience of belly-button piercing either but I know several people who have had it done recently.
Most of the piercings healed within 4 or 5 months, 2 took up to a year to fully heal. All of them said it was more painful than ear-piercing, closer to the pain of an abdominal operation but centred on one area.
Hope this helps a bit, sorry I can't be more specific. Best wishes X.
