Ok, so ever since I was in the seventh grade I have wanted my belly button done. Well, because of a mother who saw no reason to have it done I could not get it until I was eighteen. This time between seventh grade and when I would turn eighteen seemed to last like an eternity. But then finally my eighteenth birthday finally rolled around. I was totally stoked on the eve of I could hardly freakin sleep. So on my eighteenth birthday me and a friend went to a local shop with a good reputation to get it done. ...

I had it all planned out, I was going to get my long awaited navel done on my trip to Edmonton. I had been thinking about it for what seemed like forever. So I finally got the courage to do it. One the days leading up to my trip I thought about what it would look like, how much it would hurt, so on and so forth. Everyone told me it barely hurt, and that the clamps were the worst part. I was ready, I was so gonna do it! Theday we left I had a knot in my stomach ...

So it all started the Thursday before Easter holiday. I was at the store where my boyfriend works, goofing around, when he comes up with this tiny silver box and hands it to me; I gave him a puzzled look, like "what's the occasion?" with a playful smile on my face and opened up my very random gift. Inside, was The cutest, most precious navel ring. It had a rainbow, very hippie like... exactly what I wanted. "But er.. one thing babe... my bellybutton isn't pierced" he smiles and gives me those mischievous eyes that say "well, maybe you should." ...

I don't know why I felt so attracted to getting my navel pierced because I'm not a scally or a chav or anything like that but it just felt really attracted to getting it pierced. I already had my tongue pierced, nose, and multiple ear piercings including tragus, cartilage and various lobes. So I wasn't new to piercing. I'd never had an infection or anything rejected and I was pretty confident about this one and thought it would be an easy one, which it was. I decided to get it done quite soon because I don't like waiting for months ...

Since I was about 10 all I have wanted is a navel piercing, but restrictive parents have kept this from happening. It wasn't until last year that I realized it didn't matter anymore, I was 16, the legal age to get a piercing without consent, I didn't know however that most studios still wouldn't do a piercing at 16 with no parental consent. I am a very impatient person and can never wait for anything. I decided I would get it done no matter what. Unfortunately my naivety led me to a young girl making a folio of piercing and ...

The Story... I am now 15, and had been begging my mom for 2 years (since grade seven!) to get my bellybutton pierced. Being a nurse, I heard the good old 'are you kidding?! that will get infected, and then affect your internal organs... you can die!' talk. Yes maam, I put up with that talk many a time until first semester exams rolled around and I discovered the PERFECT chance to make a deal. One Friday (and a week before my birthday) I took it upon myself to mention to my mom that I was off dance that upcoming ...

I can't believe it was actually a year ago that I got this piercing. My old roommate and I love piercings and had always talked about getting something new together. It was just talk until I got fed up one day and just said "Let's GO!" I had been trying to figure out what my "something new" was going to be, deciding between a conch, a lower navel, or something a little more extreme, I finally chose my lower navel. Having had my standard navel for at least 5 years, it was time. My ex roommate chose to make her ...

I got my first navel piercing when I was 18. It didn't hurt at all. I was really surprized that I had felt nothing during the entire healing process. This story is about the risks associated with a navel piercing, and my efforts to make my body stop rejecting the piercing. As previously stated, my first navel piercing was done when I was 18. I should have known by the piercer's superior attitude toward me that this piercer was a bad one! She prepared the utensils, and I laid down as she marked me. She used a cork to catch ...

I'd always been fascinated with navel piercings, but had never really considered getting one as I can be very sensitive to pain. However, I found that I could tolerate a fairly large amount of pressure on the needle so I had had a 'poke around' many times, playing with needles in the upper area of my navel, but had never actually piercing all the way through or putting jewellery in. I think I just liked the feeling of breaking the skin. I'm not sure what exactly changed my mind, but one day I decided to go and get my navel ...

Last thing I remembered was a huge pinch in my stomach and a shiny metal bar being stuck through. My new 7th piercing. Let's see how this moment in my life started. Freshman year, what a pain. Since I was about 13 or 14, I wanted to get my navel done and Alyssa and I were like "we are so getting it done this summer." That day in the summer never happened. We wouldn't have known what we got ourselves into anyways if we were getting it done. June..regents..July...August...Sophomore year! At this time, I pretty much forgot about getting a ...
