It was so uncomfortable I literally held my breath lol Piercer asked if I was okay responded with “I’ll live” 😂 The following days were more painful then the actual piercing ngl
it was literally the worst pain i’ve ever experienced but worth it tbh (i don’t wanna keep saying this below,, i have a retina condition in that area of my stomach so any pain i experience there is way more intense, and no i am not just inexperienced)
i used numbing cream, worked way to well, god it takes so long to heal, mine started to get infected but thankfully i acted in time and saved it, now 5 years later i dont even have anything in it😭
everyone is different. NEVER ask or trust anyone for their pain tolerance when getting a piercing. my belly hurt incredibly bad when i got it but my eyebrow (which everyone told me would hurt a lot) felt like nothing.
for me it was just a tiny sharp pain and then nothing. was infected the next day. my fault tho for not speaking up when she told me to stay at the front and sign papers while she went to the back to prepare. I should have watched her do it. always watch your piercer/tattoo artist prepare and take out fresh needles and gloves or you will regret it!!
Even with fresh needles belly buttons are full of bacteria, and the shape of the piercing holds bacteria easier than other piercings, It's the most common type of piercing to get an infection.
They could’ve used fresh everything anyways. Belly buttons are closed, dark, warm, moist spaces. The perfect breeding ground for bacteria. Couple that with an open wound and the irritation of a fresh piercing, and it’s basically the perfect „recipe“ for an infection. The best thing to do is clean it well beforehand, wear loose fitting cool clothing, and stay on top of proper aftercare with saline spray, making sure you don’t agitate it as much as possible.
These are the reasons I get easily paranoid over infections for/from pericings and I always have to clean them every few hours until they're fullly heal
This is so important to anyone who hasn’t had any body (or ear) piercings before. Always watch your piercer get new, clean items before working on you. The place I’ve gotten all my piercings requires this for all piercings. Single use needles and rubbing alcohol are your best friends
Also, people should make sure they have the right anatomy for a belly button piercing, not everyone can have the traditional one. I had to get a floating belly button piercing but when it heals you can wear the same jewelry as the normal one, it just makes sure it doesn’t reject.
@@SSEdroid2707 there’s a lot of symptoms but basically your body will treat it as a foreign substance/object, and it will lead to infection. Also as your body views it as a foreign object, it will try to push the jewelry out, so the piercing will come to the surface of the skin over time until the skin can rip. If you google it you can also see examples. But basically, you’ll know bc the piercing will become messed up lol.
@@SSEdroid2707one of the biggest indicators is whether it’s infected or not, as infections don’t necessarily mean rejection but they can cause it. As for a body slowly rejecting it (my biggest fear) you’ll notice the piercing hole(s) having a lot more room in them (typically they’re right around the piercing without much, if any, room extra) and the skin will start to thin in front of the piercing as well (you’ll start to see and feel the bar more). Through and throughs like lobe (traditional ear piercings, one through the soft outer bit of your ear) piercings are less likely to reject than ones like nose bridge and belly button piercings. If you notice a piercing potentially rejecting, go to your piercer and they can evaluate it. You might be overthinking it (I did that a lot) but if you aren’t, the piercer can advise you on whether the piercing should be removed (helps avoid weird healing marks from where it was fully rejected, and helps prevent even more scar tissue which means it might be okay to retry once it’s healed fully) or if there is a potential way to save it.
Yeah until it heals properly (like 6 months) you shouldn't wear clothes that press against the piercing (tight belts over it etc.). I had to take out one of my bellypiercings because of the constant rubbing.
I have a high pain tolerance and I still passed out from it. The worst part was the healing process. But 16 years later I’m still rockin it and love it as much as I did when I was 15
@@AafiaAhmad-cr8le comes down to the amount of nerves you have in there. pain tolerance is def a main one but you dont need a high pain tolerance if you dont have a small amount of nerves in your belly button.
@@AafiaAhmad-cr8lehigh pain tolerance won’t help if you have a lot of nerves there, also it just depends on how intensely you feel the pain. If you feel it intensely, a high pain tolerance isn’t going to help.
mine was just kind of uncomfortable to get done 🤷🏻♀️ i didnt get any infections, only normal discomfort you’d expect from a new piercing and it healed with no problems. Some would say im one of the lucky ones but i think a good part of why mine went so well was that i wore loose clothing and gave it time and space to heal instead of immediately styling it, which i see a lot of people doing. If you’re going to get your belly button pierced, of course make sure youre going to a reputable piercer but also, be gentle and thoughtful with your choice of clothes because at the end of the day your body is trying to heal a new wound and having fluff and bacteria all up in it definitely wont make it heal any better!!
Yes it hurts, and your anatomy has a lot to do with it, if you're too thin it hurts from tightness but if your belly folds it adds constant pressure to it (it will heal just slower and with more care)
i have a very low pain tolerance and i said that to the girl who pierced me, she was very nice and patient with me. what we did (worked for me, may not work for all) was that she wouldn’t tell me when she would pierce it, she just told to me to breathe in and out and did it on one of my intakes of breath (if the makes sense) it hurt but the worst part was the week after, i couldn’t sit down or stand up like normally and had to be very careful with how i moved, but after the first week i was fine.
I have a pretty high pain tolerance and mine still hurt😅 also glad I'm not the only one who had to be careful when I sat down and shit ended up having to take it out like a week later cause it was pierced wrong
@nikkidglr yea it definitely sucked but j I soo get the pregnant lady thing and I never buttoned my pants when I dint have to cause my pants where so high waisted lmao
The only time mine hurt, was re-piercing the last 2 times... over scar tissue from it ripping out 3 times before. Little advice, if you play volleyball or soccer, don't pierce it during season lol
as someone who got mine done, it felt like a very concentrated period cramp. rather than a sharp pain, it was a deep pressure pain, which imo felt worse than any others ive gotten- but it did feel great about 2 hours after unlike other piercings which are sore for days!
i got mine done in the same session as a cartilage piercing and the cartilage piercing brought a few tears to my eyes. the belly hutton was nothing compared to that. but that's just my own experience, everyone's pain tolerance is different.
It does kinda hurt, it feels super weird. But what really hurts is the piercing rejecting but the starter piercing getting stuck because it was misthreaded so your boyfriend has to help you get it out with pliers.
It depends on how your nerves are in that area, how good the piercer is, and what your natural pain resistance (not like how much you can tolerate but how strongly you feel it) as to how much it will hurt 🤷🏻♀️ but the good news about piercings is even if the piercer wants to fix the placement (like it’s not quite right to how it should look or they’d like it to look) it still doesn’t take long. Maybe a couple seconds of sharp pain if they get it the first try, a couple seconds then about thirty seconds of adjustment and repierce if it needs to be fixed. Anyone can manage that, I believe in you. Do it for the aesthetic you want
i did mine on my own when i was 13 and ended up not piercing enough skin but everything went fine never got infected the pain during was a 4/10 and the healing process was perfect didnt hurt one bit 💞
I have a low pain tolerance. The best way I can describe it was: sharp, immediate sting and a slight “pop” when the needle broke the skin, and then gradually worse stinging. A 6/10 on my personal pain scale. I kept my eyes open and the pain made my vision go white and I felt so incredibly hot, like a cold sweat. After the jewelry went in I took a minute to come to and managed to stand up though I was a little shaky. I’d say it’s worth it just because I like piercings but the pain can definitely be super intense for some people lol
I did It once and It was probably one of the most painful things I've ever experienced. The guy told me to breath in and out and bla bla bla but I probably will never get It again. I think this depends on your belly button shape and the quantity of fat on the area. If you have a small belly button with small fat It'll be easier to pinch on the skin
I'd say it was less painful than my regular lobe piercings (but they were done at Claire's 🤪). I went to a professional piercer and my bellybutton was literally nothing and I have a low pain tolerance. It took maybe 2 minutes and I walked out the door feeling fine :)
I got mine done yesterday & all I can say is I might be a wuss but altogether I do have 8 piercings in my ears and I thought it wouldn’t be as bad but I passed out on a bench afterwards but I don’t like needles but altogether out of 10 as the highest I would rate it a 7/8 on the pain scale but honestly I do not regret it one bit i love it 🩷
It’s crazy some people didn’t feel theirs. Mine hurt like hell. It was sharp, but different than my other piercings in the way that it actually hurt for a while afterwards. Like with my ears it was a small pinch then nothing, but my belly button hurt for weeks!! Healed really well. Was never really infected but lymph drainage is normal and it definitely looked a little gruesome at times. 6 months later it’s basically completely healed and I couldn’t be happier!
My best friend and I got ours yesterday and honestly it doesn’t hurt at all! I definitely think it’s true when people say it depends on the person cause my best friend on the other hand passed out and says she is super so yeah definitely keep your pain tolerance in consideration
I think it depends on how pierced you are As a first piercing it probably hurts a lot but as someone with their helix, septum and nostril pierced it was more of a stabby tingle
When I got mine it straight up bled for days and any little tug would cause it to re-bleed, I couldn’t even sleep on my stomach which is my favorite way to sleep. But in the end I can say it’s worth it because the discomfort and pain didn’t last forever.
I didn’t think it hurt so bad initially, but the recovery process was super difficult since clothing kept moving it around. After about a month it didn’t hurt anymore though. Just make sure to always rotate and clean your new piercings, even when it hurts!
Getting my belly pierced was manageable with the endorphins, but having them put the initial barbell put IN immediately after the piercing was FAR more uncomfortable.
Well I did mine myself and I can definitely say get it done professionally TRUST🙏🙏 it will be way way faster that way and probably won’t hurt that much
i got mines this January for my bday and its already healed. the initial piercing didnt hurt at all for me and the healing was sometimes uncomfortable when it got caught on my clothes but thats it for me.
got mine done yesterday and i was so scared but i honestly felt nothing. I was so surprised haha. Inserting jewellery was the worst bit for me but not painful just uncomfortable. It's after the piercing that's worst. Mine really hurts rn
I have my septum, ears and nostril pierced. My belly button was the least painful. I didn't even feel the needle go into my skin. It was so quick and painless. It was sore the next day though, then it still gets irritated when my pants get caught on it. My septum was the most painful. But, the painful part was the clamp for me. My nose felt so bruised. I got my septum 2 weeks ago. And it's still very sore, I have to be gentle when scratching my nose.
I really want one , but I’m a lil nervous about the pain , I’ve gotten the industrial done and it wasn’t that bad so I’m wondering if I could take it lol
for me, the piercing didn’t hurt at all, i actually had to ask my piercer if he had already put the needle through because i had no idea. the healing though.. nothing hurts more than bending down and the waist of your pants hitting the piercing. it’s been 4 months since i got mine and it’s still not fully healed
Never felt anything when i got mine done at 16 . I awkwardly lied on the table for a few minutes after waiting for her to start until she said "you can stand up anytime you'd like" didn't feel anything at all.
I just felt how the needle was going through but it was weird because it didn’t hurt a bit! Literally just felt it crossing my skin layers hahaha my only recommendation is to squeeze the liquid out if it starts getting inflamed (not infected), obviously with clean hands and tissue! I had been squeezing out the cheesy smell gunk and one day I was like “I should stop doing that” so I stopped and 2 days later it hurt really bad and I had to release all of that gunk buildup, even blood came out and it squirted everywhere it was gross and smelly LMAO
I swear getting my nipples pierced hurt less then my belly button! The healing process was pretty bad for the nips but that belly ring got caught on EVERYTHING!
The worst part of ANY piercing is the aftercare 😂 I didn’t feel most of my piercings when they happened, but I felt them for the 3-6 weeks it takes to fully heal.
Mine was okay to be honest it did sort of hurt but the pain was very brief and then it was okay after. It was really sensitive for like the first 4 days though
Personally it was over pretty quick for me honestly the clams hurt more than the actual piercing cuz the piercer was really quick and warned me beforehand to make sure i was prepared
my friend pierced mine & usually i think i have a pretty high pain tolerance to piercings, but honestly my belly button hurt more than my septum. to the point that i literally passed out in my friends bathtub 😭 but then again i honestly think it was just nerves idk
i get hurt really easily and am so scared of needles,, but my belly piercing was so not bad it actually is exactly what they say, ur just gonna feel it for a second, it’s totally worth it! think about a bad thing u made and think that this one second of pain if cuz of that bad thing ( that’s my secret 😚)
I’m 13 and haven’t got a belly piercing (yet) maybe when I’m fifteen, but I got a lip piercing. It didn’t hurt while getting it done but the after pain is horrible! Especially with things being more complicated then they used to be, like accidentally chewing the bar of my piercing while eating and feeling my skin rip, but you wont even notice it theres after a month or so. I’d say worth it for the cute piercings I get to were with them though
Frehsman year I was skipping class in the bathroom and a group of girls pierced their belly buttons in the next stall over. A group of 4 walked into the handicapped stall, then I heard a "this won't hurt" right before another one screamed lmao.
I have a horrible pain tolerance but mine didn’t hurt at all. Not even the needle going in which shocked me. My ear piercings (lobe and cartilage) where a million times worsw
it didn’t really hurt for me all that much, it was just really awkward and felt REALLY weird. like i think i was too distracted by having someone stick their finger in my belly button than the actual needle going through it lmao
My sister got hers done it didn’t hurt while getting it done but after the recover she was in a large amount of pain for a couple of days and could only wear crop tops but she stuck through and is now the owner of a lovely belly piercing
It was kinda like a small bee sting. Or the hpv vaccine, like it hurt but not in a way were it made me do anything more than a little wince and I'm thirteen, so u guys should be fine, honestly it's basically over before you even have time to prepare yourself, so you'll notice but it's si quick the pain won't even matter
it doesn’t hurt that bad i’ve had it twice bc first time i did it myself and let it close up and then second time i got it professionally done and they both weren’t bad
Mine hurt a bit like 6/10 some others might hurt more or less but it was soooo worth it it's so pretty and summers coming up too sooo but if anyone's having second thoughts it's really worth it! You might have pain for a day or 2 but that's alright so worth it might be the best choice in my life
It was so uncomfortable
I literally held my breath lol

got mine done yesterday and i was so scared but i honestly felt nothing. I was so surprised haha. Inserting jewellery was the worst bit for me but not painful just uncomfortable. It's after the piercing that's worst. Mine really hurts rn
I have my septum, ears and nostril pierced. My belly button was the least painful. I didn't even feel the needle go into my skin. It was so quick and painless.
It was sore the next day though, then it still gets irritated when my pants get caught on it.
My septum was the most painful. But, the painful part was the clamp for me. My nose felt so bruised. I got my septum 2 weeks ago. And it's still very sore, I have to be gentle when scratching my nose.
yeah that shit hurt
not unbearable but deff more painful than i expected.
I really want one , but I’m a lil nervous about the pain , I’ve gotten the industrial done and it wasn’t that bad so I’m wondering if I could take it lol
for me it just kinda stung for a couple of hours until i basically couldnt feel it anymore
for me, the piercing didn’t hurt at all, i actually had to ask my piercer if he had already put the needle through because i had no idea. the healing though.. nothing hurts more than bending down and the waist of your pants hitting the piercing. it’s been 4 months since i got mine and it’s still not fully healed
Never felt anything when i got mine done at 16 . I awkwardly lied on the table for a few minutes after waiting for her to start until she said "you can stand up anytime you'd like" didn't feel anything at all.
Does not hurt at all
I just felt how the needle was going through but it was weird because it didn’t hurt a bit! Literally just felt it crossing my skin layers hahaha my only recommendation is to squeeze the liquid out if it starts getting inflamed (not infected), obviously with clean hands and tissue! I had been squeezing out the cheesy smell gunk and one day I was like “I should stop doing that” so I stopped and 2 days later it hurt really bad and I had to release all of that gunk buildup, even blood came out and it squirted everywhere it was gross and smelly LMAO
I literally didn’t feel it at all 😂 I was so surprised 😂 but even getting my seconds didn’t hurt, so it definitely depends on the person 😊
7/10 on the pain scale 😂 didn’t hurt much after just had to get used to not laying on my stomach for a while
I swear getting my nipples pierced hurt less then my belly button!
The healing process was pretty bad for the nips but that belly ring got caught on EVERYTHING!
mine hurt but totally worth it. except the fact that it’s crooked
I find that peircings in generall dont hurt to much just a pinch but when they touch it to clean or acsess it better it hurts a lot
The worst part of ANY piercing is the aftercare 😂 I didn’t feel most of my piercings when they happened, but I felt them for the 3-6 weeks it takes to fully heal.
Healing takes forever but actually getting it pierced was less painful than piercing my earlobes
Mine was okay to be honest it did sort of hurt but the pain was very brief and then it was okay after. It was really sensitive for like the first 4 days though
it only felt like a tiny pinch for me. didn’t hurt at all
Personally it was over pretty quick for me honestly the clams hurt more than the actual piercing cuz the piercer was really quick and warned me beforehand to make sure i was prepared
my friend pierced mine & usually i think i have a pretty high pain tolerance to piercings, but honestly my belly button hurt more than my septum. to the point that i literally passed out in my friends bathtub 😭 but then again i honestly think it was just nerves idk
I've only heard people say two things: "worst pain ive ever felt" or "i didnt feel it at all". I personally didnt feel anything, thank goodness lol
I got it done when I was 16 I have a lot of piercings and this one definitely was a piece of cake
It literally doesn't hurt. Slightly uncomfortable, but painless.
does it hurt more than getting ur cartilage pierced??
Man it was the most pleasant experience for me. It was 1,2,3 easy and healed quick too. I feel bad for people who say it hurt.
i get hurt really easily and am so scared of needles,, but my belly piercing was so not bad it actually is exactly what they say, ur just gonna feel it for a second, it’s totally worth it! think about a bad thing u made and think that this one second of pain if cuz of that bad thing ( that’s my secret 😚)
I’m 13 and haven’t got a belly piercing (yet) maybe when I’m fifteen, but I got a lip piercing. It didn’t hurt while getting it done but the after pain is horrible! Especially with things being more complicated then they used to be, like accidentally chewing the bar of my piercing while eating and feeling my skin rip, but you wont even notice it theres after a month or so. I’d say worth it for the cute piercings I get to were with them though
Frehsman year I was skipping class in the bathroom and a group of girls pierced their belly buttons in the next stall over. A group of 4 walked into the handicapped stall, then I heard a "this won't hurt" right before another one screamed lmao.
For me it was okay, it didn’t hurt that much but trying to get the ring in hurt a lot, it also made me really dizzy
I have a horrible pain tolerance but mine didn’t hurt at all. Not even the needle going in which shocked me. My ear piercings (lobe and cartilage) where a million times worsw
Honestly when you pulled out the needle i know i will never get to belly Peirce ever. With tah pull right there HELL NAHH I WOULD-
Hell yeah the healing is worse tho
it didn’t really hurt for me all that much, it was just really awkward and felt REALLY weird. like i think i was too distracted by having someone stick their finger in my belly button than the actual needle going through it lmao
Man I always hate the "beauty is pain" stuff
My sister got hers done it didn’t hurt while getting it done but after the recover she was in a large amount of pain for a couple of days and could only wear crop tops but she stuck through and is now the owner of a lovely belly piercing
It was kinda like a small bee sting. Or the hpv vaccine, like it hurt but not in a way were it made me do anything more than a little wince and I'm thirteen, so u guys should be fine, honestly it's basically over before you even have time to prepare yourself, so you'll notice but it's si quick the pain won't even matter
My mom litterally BLACKED OUT!!
it doesn’t hurt that bad i’ve had it twice bc first time i did it myself and let it close up and then second time i got it professionally done and they both weren’t bad
Mine was great, it honestly tickled, hurt a bit after though and bled alot
It didn’t hurt until I sat up, then all the soreness and pain hit like a bitch.
Do clip on ones work or fall off?
Also do clip on ones ones hurt??
Im not allowed belly piercings yet
I got mine three years ago, and it was literally a 1 out of 10 I didn’t even feel anything
Mine hurt a bit like 6/10 some others might hurt more or less but it was soooo worth it it's so pretty and summers coming up too sooo but if anyone's having second thoughts it's really worth it! You might have pain for a day or 2 but that's alright so worth it might be the best choice in my life
