Question

I WANT TO GET IT FOR MY B-DAY im barely fixin to turn 17 AND IM NOT SURE IF I SHOULD!!!IS IT TOO EARLY TO GET MY BELLY PIERCED IF IM BARELY

Answer 1

i think 17+ is a good age.

Answer 2

Well Im 18 now, and I got mine done when I was 13 years old. For some reason my mom actually let me since I was a really good student and all around good kid. Anyways, 5 years later I still love it! So as long as you are okay with it (and your mom won't freak out) I think it's a great idea. Just make sure to get it done at a professional place and to take care of it. A little secret I learned, is to take two tablespoons of sea salt (sold at grocery stores) mix with one cup of water. Put in a cup. Bend over and stick the cup to your belly (so that it circles your belly button) kinda suction it, lean back so the water hits your stomach and belly button (if its suctioned and held on your stomach it wont drip or anything) for 5 minutes once every other day for 3 months after you get it pierced. Ive never ever gotton an infection.

Just the fact that you are asking says to me Yes..it is too early.Belly piercing though not necessarily permanent will leave a scar that willnot go a3way. If you are not sure then don't do it. I have nothing against belly piercings but I do hate the scar mine left.I had to remove the belly ring durring pregnancy and it closed up and looks terrible now. Preganacy stretched it all out and i hate how it looks.B4e sure it is what you want for a long time before you do it because it WILL scar.

Not really. Don't do it on a whim though. Make sure you've looked into the pros and cons first. Find out how much care it will require at the onset and what you may need to avoid at first (like sleeping on your stomach). Definitely talk to some people who've had it done and do some research on the web. If you decide to do it, make sure you go to a clean, reputable place - preferably a place someone who had a good experience can recommend. Good luck, hon.

Answer 5

in simple terms wait it out. all and sundry who will make an exception for you isn't somebody you elect for piercing you. while you're seventeen, you have decrease than a 300 and sixty 5 days to attend. that's properly worth it. you need to consistently bypass jointly with your mom and father, yet via fact that they're in yet another state it sounds like it is not available. additionally please do no longer pierce your self. you do no longer very own an autoclave, so there is not any thank you to perfect sterilize each little thing you would be utilising. that's totally risky.

Answer 6

LMAO! NO!!! It is not too early. I was ready to get mine done at 15 but I decided to wait untill I was 16, I'm 17 now. My dad dosen't know that I have had it pierced for several months, lol my step-mom and my mom took me. It kinda hurt, but not too bad. I definitly do not regret it!

Answer 7

If you have any doubts about doing somethign to your body i dont suggest doing it.
Although i am a lover of piercings and have had many.. if i ever have a second thought i hold out till i know for sure. Soemtimes it only takes a couple days and a few i have waited almost 2 years b4 i committed.

Answer 8

No its a good age. You wont enjoy it later in life so do it while your younger so you like it longer. You'll probally get rid of it around 24-26 yrs old

Answer 9

If u want one, what's holding you back? No way is 17 too early lololol
