Having nine piercings, and none of them done within the past two years, I came to the conclusion that I was way way WAY overdue for something new! My "to-do list" included: rook, lower navel, industrial, and nose, plus some others. So I decided to do some research. More like a TON of research. I always do this for any piercing I plan on getting, just to make sure I get the most accurate, helpful information out there. You can never be too prepared, trust me. If it were not for BME I probably would not have any of my ...

I saved up money to get my navel piercing and now I'm pissed because I think it was done wrong. The place I went to was pretty grungy, but my friends had gone to this place before and said it was okay so I went ahead to get my piercing. I didn't really take into consideration the environment because I was so excited. For one thing, the piercer was a JERK. He was young, probably in his late-twenties and completely ignored our presence while talking on the phone. He gave us a lot of attitude and acted as if we ...

My parents had never really been into piercing, and weren't particularly happy with the idea of me having a lot of them. I was really pleased when I turned 16 and could legally have piercing without parental consent, and jumped at the opportunity to do so. They'd only ever let me have single holes in my ear lobes, so when my 16th birthday was coming up, I knew I wanted my navel pierced, partly because it looked good, and partly because my parents wouldn't be able to see it and be bothered by it. They weren't particularly happy about my ...

Well I have been wanting my belly button pierced for a while now. In face I have been wanting it since I was 13. A girl on my bus had it and from that moment I fell in love. My mom had always been cool with the idea, only because she knew I was scared of needles... Now my fear isn't bad and I have defiantly been bit by the piercing bug. When I was 14 I got tattoos and then last summer my brother pierced my ears twice himself. Plus after my whole I hate needles thing, I had ...

I had wanted to get my navel pierced since I was about 12 years old. Back then my Mum had offered to pay for me to get it done but I was afraid of the pain associated with it so I declined. By age 18 I decided it was definitely what I wanted. At the time I was dating a guy who didn't find piercings attractive in the least so I didn't get it done. While body modification is important to me, in my eyes he was more important than getting a piercing so I was happy to go without. ...

I have a whole list of piercings which I am planning for the next couple of years and I chose this as my starting point. Although a standard navel is basic and hugely popular I am not anatomically suited for an inverse (my 1# choice) and I thought it best to start with something easy to gauge my body's ability to heal itself before I embarked upon my more complex ambitions. I basically have a slit for a belly button, so a standard 8mm bottom ball was out of the question and after ridiculous amounts of reading up on BME ...

I'd been wanting to get my bellybutton done since I started getting body mods at age 18, my first being a tongue piercing. Since then, I've accumulated 2 tattoos and numerous ear piercings, but no other body piercings. I was sent home from work early one day, and I figured, "What the heck? Let's do it!" So I got home, woke my boyfriend up, and set up the appointment. The studio I went to has an all right reputation, meaning, my friends that had gone there weren't very impressed with the place or the work done. Anyway, I set my ...

I've been thinking about getting a belly piercing but something has always been stopping me... like how I'm not sure if my parents will let me, my insecurities of my tummy as it is, not a very washboard type, in fact, far from it...and the pain. I've got 6 piercings actually, 3 on each ear. 2 cartilage and an earlobe on my left ear, 1 cartilage piercing and 2 earlobes on the other ear. All of them are done with piercing guns, I choose them despite how many times I've been told that piercing guns are not good or safe ...

I've been forever divided by two worlds. In my mind, I'm a unique individual, just trying to get by in life without too many problems. I don't let anyone tell me who to be, what to do, or how to be myself. And yet, I grew up in what you would call the "Dirty South." Born in Chicago, I have city roots. It makes me culturized and intelligent. But I was whisked away to sunny South Florida, where I spent most of my childhood. We never had money, so we lived in what you could call the worse areas's of ...

Well ever since grade 5 I'v wanted my belly button pierced, and I'v bugged my Mom for it for so long! But in grade 7 I guess all the bugging paid off, because she finally was going to let me, after 3 years of bugging! I was so happy, I got my belly button pierced last May and everything was going fine it was healed and everything. But then about a month and a half ago I was at my friends and the top ball came off and unfortunately I did not have an extra ball, so I had to ...
