I was 18 and had wanted to get my navel pierced for a few months, but, being a college student/broke teenager, didn't really have the money and so had decided to wait for a little bit until I could get the proper finances. Luckily for me, my boyfriend's sister had hers pierced and had an idea to take me to get mine done for my next birthday. She kept telling me that she knew what my birthday present was going to be and that I needed to keep my birthday (it's in April) open during the afternoon so she could ...

Peace out, man!~ A multi-navel experience. I am no stranger to the needle. At the time of this experience, I'd had 8 piercings performed. A meager amount compared to a lot of denziens of BME, but enough to give me a good enough amount of experience so that I could go into this piercing with a good head on my shoulders. It started when the bug to have some more work done landed on my back, rather than me seeing pictures of the piercing and growing a desire specifically for it. I didn't want anymore facial piercings, and I was ...

So I'm 15. I've always loved piercings and had wanted a ton of them, but the only problem was my mom. I'd asked her many a time for my eyebrow, nose, or lip done, and the answer was always the ever popular "No". I could get my ears pierced as many times as I wanted, but nothing on my face because "It looks trashy and you don't need holes in your face." One day I decided I wanted my navel pierced. After a lot of persuasion, she said yes, but she still wasn't too thrilled about the idea. I was ...

Okay so a few months ago I decided that I wanted a new piercing. At first I wanted a facial piercing (my nose, or lip), but I soon realized that a lot of people have facial piercings at my school, and I don't want one that every other person (literally) has, and where I live, facial piercings make it hard to get a job, and with the rules at school changing and new policies being enforced, facial piercings have to be removed at certain times(graduation,JROTC). So I decided to get my navel pierced. I had been thinking about it for ...

I am writing this, not because I think that there is anything different about my experience but because I want to let people know that the piercer does make all the difference in the world... I got a navel piercing about 13 years ago at a tattoo and piercing studio in St. Pete, FL while I was on vacation. My friend and I thought it would be pretty cool while our husbands got tattoos. And we thought we were so brave! Anyway, they took us in the back and I went first. Long story short, they did an awful, unprofessional ...

This tale is about my third attempt at navel piercing. I originally had my navel pierced in 2001. I was 16 at the time and everyone at school had theirs done so of course I had to have mine done as well. I had really wanted my tongue pierced, but my mum wouldn't budge so I thought that a navel piercing was better than nothing. I had the navel done and also tried to have my nose pierced but I chickened out when I had a gun shoved near my face. Finally a couple of months (and constant nagging) later, ...

My story is a little lengthy, but it includes some valid and useful advice and is a detailed account of my navel piercing experience. From the age of around 11/12 years old, I have admired the beauty of navel piercings. From the moment I saw them, I knew I would have to get one. So here I am, aged 16 with a beautiful piece of metal in my belly button! At this point, I did have 3 lobe piercings, 1 retired lobe piercing and an 8mm flesh tunnel in the other ear. I thought this would be a perfect first ...

I got my piercing done on total impulse. I was walking around Toronto with a friend who wanted something done, so we checked out a lot of studios and nobody seemed to have any openings. There was one place we kept walking by because it looked kind of sketchy, but in the end she was so desperate to get something done that we went there anyway. The piercer seemed like he knew what he was talking about, and my friend was nervous but still really determined to get something done - so, to try and ease her nerves, I agreed ...

Well, the title is pretty self explanatory, but I'll explain it anyways. My first body piercing other than my ears was my navel. This is because it's the only piercing I could get my mom to approve as she wouldn't have to see it everyday. I did not always want a navel piercing, but I figured once I got a piercing then it would be easier to convince her to let me get others. I was supposed to get my navel done for my 16th birthday present, however, the piercing studio around me won't take ANYONE under 18. When in ...

Since the craze of navel piercing began, I wanted to pierce mine...BAD!! There was one slight problem. I have an outie. Now, one could get into specifics and say it is a middle-ie, but then that could begin a long debate about whether or not there is such a thing. The point is, there were stories circulating that said those with outies cannot get a piercing. I think it was the risk of a liver infection or serious rejection and scarring. Maybe that was true, or maybe the risks are an urban legend. Regardless, I was determined to get my ...
