I got my belly button pierced a few weeks ago. I went to the place an it was a really clean looking place it smelled of rubbing alcohol my friend took me since she had hers done the year before the people looked like typical people only the whole tatoos and piercings everywhere on there bodys. My friend and i went into the room and they have a bed like you would see at the doctors. they cleaned it with iodine and made sure it was all steril. they tell u to lie on the table flat my friend held my arms up the clamps didn't hurt like everyone says they do. For me it really wasn't much more then slight pressure...like a pinch. then they told me the needle was goin in it was like a pin prick nothing more it hurts but not that much you really psyic ur self out first thinking it will hurt but it's not wat u think... well no i look at it and my belly button it gross still they say don't put paroxide or anything like that just clean it with anti-bacterial soup turning the ring to get the soup in the whole...contact solution works well too. but my belly button is still red and pusses and it is kinda hard around the hole but other wise it doens't hurt at all untill u really turn it ..in the mornings sometimes there is skin and dried puss and such all around it and it hurts a bit to turn it.. but the real pain is when u sleep on ur stomach. So i think you can get ur belly button pierced but think a long time and plan it for a long time and consider all the options b/c it can get infected which mine has but it can get treated too... and it look really cool
