Belly Piercing Guide: A Chic and Stylish Statement

Belly piercings are a timeless and trendy way to highlight your midsection, offering endless opportunities for self-expression. Whether you’re drawn to the classic navel piercing or want to explore unique variations, a belly piercing adds a touch of elegance and individuality to your look. Here's everything you need to know about belly piercings and a guide to the different types.


Types of Belly Piercings

1.     Classic Navel Piercing

  • Description: The most popular style, placed just above the belly button with the jewellery hanging down over the navel.
  • Jewellery Options: Curved barbells or dangles.
  • Healing Time: 6 to 12 months.

2.     Lower Navel Piercing

  • Description: A piercing placed below the belly button, opposite the classic navel piercing.
  • Jewellery Options: Curved barbells or small hoops.
  • Healing Time: 6 to 12 months.

3.     Double Navel Piercing

  • Description: Combines a classic navel piercing with a lower navel piercing, creating a symmetrical look.
  • Jewellery Options: Curved barbells or a combination of barbells and dangles.
  • Healing Time: 6 to 12 months.

4.     Side Navel Piercing

  • Description: Positioned to the left or right of the navel for a more unique appearance.
  • Jewellery Options: Curved barbells or hoops.
  • Healing Time: 6 to 12 months.

5.     Floating Navel Piercing

  • Description: Jewelry is inserted at a shallower angle, creating the illusion of "floating." This method is ideal for those whose anatomy doesn’t suit a classic navel piercing.
  • Jewellery Options: Curved barbells or flat-back studs.
  • Healing Time: 6 to 12 months.

Healing and Aftercare

Healing times for belly piercings range from 6 to 12 months, depending on the type of piercing and individual factors. Proper aftercare is crucial to avoid irritation or infection:

  • Clean Daily: Use a saline solution to gently cleanse your piercing.
  • Avoid Irritation: Refrain from wearing tight clothing that may rub against the piercing.
  • Be Patient: Healing takes time, so avoid changing your jewellery too soon.
