  1. wHy Do U tAlK LiKe ThIs?


  2. okay i dont get it!

    in some questions you say your 15 in others your say your 14 and in some other questions you said you were 13.. so the real question is how old are you really? and why do you in some questions say your a red head when your actually a blonde? your soo fake and you need to stop saying what people want to hear..!

    oh and in another question you answer "YES!

    don't listen to the other people. i'm a professional hair dresser at holiday hair in PA.

    trust me. "

    how can a "15" year old or how ever old you are be a professional hairdresser?

  3. if your getting it pierced and your only 15 and good piercing place will as for a guardian to sign for you.

    so you should probably get it done with your dad

    it doesn't hurt

    DON'T use jewellery from Clair's for the actual piercing... let it heal first, you should just buy the jewellery from the piercing salon and i prefer a curved barbell

    You should really as your questions regarding healing time and cleaning from the person who does it but if i remember mine took about 2 months and i cleaned it 3 times a day and then once with a warm saline solution instead of a cold one with a tip.

    and if you take it out you may get a little scar but my firend has one and its not noticeable

    hope i helped a bit you had SO many questions



  4. 1. get it pierced professionally with a curved barbell. it will take less time to heal than a ring.

    2. you can buy replacement navel rings at claires, but they will all be the same size.

    3. don't wear tight clothing and don't lift your shirt around her.

    4. it hurts a fair bit more than a 3rd ear piercing. it will be pierced with a needle, not a gun.

    5. tips: don't do it yourself. it will definitely become infected because you don't have the right tools.

    6. a sea salt spray called H2Ocean, or a salt-water soak. the salt-water soak: take a small cup that you won't use again, and fill with water and a tablespoon of salt. put it against your piercing and lay down with the cup on the piercing for 2 minutes. do this 3-6 times a day.

    7. you can buy piercing retainers, which are clear plastic pieces of jewellery. http://www.custommetal.net/155/

    8. the navel takes about 4 months to a year to heal, so it all depends on your body and how well you clean it. you can changes the balls of the navel ring at any time, just do not remove the barbell.

    9. it will leave you with a whole in your stomach, which will eventually become a permanent scar.

    10. salt water soaks. if you take it out for good, you won't have to clean it, but you could continue with the salt-water soaks.

    11. not if it is done by a professional.

    12. you need to go to a professional, there is a clamp that is used to measure the appropriate size of whole, as well as distance between the two wholes in your stomach.

    13. GET IT PROFESSIONALLY DONE. you will hurt yourself, it will become infected, and you will scar your body forever if you do it incorrectly.

  5. Dont pierce it yourself because its more than likely it will get infected and that could lead to blood poisoning etc

    Plus theres a technique in piercing and a special needle used. It needs to be done in a sterile and professional environment. Im not lecturing you but it would be a big mistake to do it yourself. if you want it that bad then save up or ask your dad.. Just dont do it yourself

  6. Oh gosh....hun you do not know how bad it hurts there's no way  you can do it yourself! Please think about this, first of all if you pierce it the wrong way, it will reject. That means if the piercing isn't deep enough or on the right angle your skin will actually push it out! That will leave you with a torn bellybutton and and a nasty scar when it heals. This can even happen if you get it professionaly done! So deffinately don't chance it doing it yourself! Also as much as you don't want to hear it, at 15 you're still growing in a lot of ways, in three years when you're an adult you could be taller, fatter, thinner, ect. and that can really mess up a body piercing! Trust me you don't want a messed up looking bellybutton it's nasty some of the after effects from not taking care of it or doing it too you or the wrong way. Wait till you're at least 17 and have someone take you to a reputable place to get it pierced, mine only cost 30$ with the ring included. Deffinately don't get a belly ring from Claires! They have cheap metal and it will cuase a bad reaction especially to a new piercing, if anything get one from Piercing Pagoda they are good quality! It takes 6 months to a year to heal and you have to clean it with anitbacterial soap twice a day. You can change the piercing after a month but you must always have a ring in otherwise it will close up. Trust me on this though please wait and don't do something you'll regret!

  7. okay so dont pierce it your self

    it will most likley turn out crooked like mine and you'll have to get it taken out

    so research and buy the right needle get any ring you think is cute and match it with the needle

    LET A FRIEND DO IT, if you cant get it done profesionally :)

    do some research.

    dont make a big deal about it and it wont hurt that bad :)

    hope i helped and you honestly do need to stop TaLKinG LiKE ThiS

    hope i helped :D
