i got a hypertrophic scar on my nose ring and found that crushed aspirin, sea salt, and tea tree oil mixed together works very well! it went away in about a week
Thank you for saying do not remove a piercing while it is infected, because you can cause it to trap the infection. I work in a pharmacy and have several piercings. I am the go to person when someone comes in with a piercing or tattoo questions. Their second question is always should I remove my piercing? I am like no! Please keep the piercing in, because it will trap the infection and could cause a blood infection. I had a customer come in 2 months after asking me said question. They to tell me that I was very knowledgeable and wished they had taken my advice. They ended up with an infection in their blood, had to have infusions of antibiotics and so on and so forth.
I heard this girl talking about how she got her belly button piercing a week ago and she was gonna change it that day. 2 days later she's crying asking the teacher to go to the nurse because her belly button is leaking blood and puss. I was laughing, I've had mine for 6 months and I still don't think I should change it.
Personally with me, I made the mistake of wearing high-waisted pants/shorts. It would always get irritated, and was pretty uncomfortable. Now that it's healed I always wear high-waisted stuff, and depending on how high-waisted your pants/shorts are it might slightly agitate the piercing.
I got my belly button pierced and the woman had no clue what she was doing she pierced it so close to the surface that I could see the bar fully and also she gave me no information on how to clean it or that I shouldn't turn it. it rejected very quickly I took it out before it fully pushed the rest of the way out. then I went to kaleidoscope in springfield Mo. and a guy there pierced my belly button I'm going on my fifth month and it is healing nicely.
what happens when if i lose weight while having it? will that effect how the piercing looks or anything? also I love these videos they are awesome i do not yet have one but i am hoping to get one soon.
I was so worried about getting my belly button pirced until I watched your first video on them forever ago :p but I'm absolutely in love with it, so thanks for making these !
I was told from 2 different shops that I could change it at 2 months. one of them even changed it for me, then I took it out (like I was told to) to soak it in salt water. and the other shop ( that also told me it was okay to change) that it was stupid of me...
About getting a bottom navel piercing (I got both top and bottom done =) ), I would recommend getting it pierced with a hoop or barbell with small balls (the best is the barbell, because the hoop can move too easily, it doesn't help to heal) I got it pierced with a standard barbell (with a gem on the ball inside the belly) and it keeps moisture so the healing process is longer. After 3 months (in July) I went to the piercer to get a hoop, now it's almost healed, I just love the way it looks on me. I loved my top one (which I took out because of an ex-girlfriend who didn't like it :/ ), but I prefer the bottom on me =) I really like your belly and all of your piercing they are so cute =)
I've had my belly pierced for about 6 months. I still clean it but I feel like when I do, it looks worse and the bottom ball sticks to the skin. Does that mean something is wrong? Should i get it checked out?
I'm 21 years old now and have always been a fan of belly button piercings but have been scared to get one. Not because of the pain but I'm afraid it'll get caught into things and I don't like the idea of a scar being left behind.
I got mine pierced January 10th 2015 and like the first month I cleaned it with antibacterial soap and after that I used ear care solution from claire's and it healed mine so fast I changed my ring at the 3 month mark and it didnt hurt and it was fine
+BreeAnn Barbie. I'm so sad!!!!!!! 9 months of babying my belly piercing and it just popped out of my skin! Literally it just fell out..I can't believe I had it that long and it rejected. I am a bigger girl and I wonder if that had something to do with it. Prob won't re-pierce. 😢😢😢
it took piercing mine 5 times!!!! Until I found the "right" piercer who said I should have been pierced from INSIDE the belly button and up to the top because I have a deeper "inny" belly button. He was right and it healed beautifully and it's been over two years now! Take a year for the one that migrated out to heal first!(I DID!) Absolutely DON'T change your jewelry for at least a year or even more! The longer you wait and are patient, it WILL heal and then, you can consider changing out jewelry! Good luck to you and hope this helps you!
I'm so annoyed I got my belly pierced three times already. I took it out every time because I was worried my mom would find out. And now I have a big scar and I want mine done again.
yes omg!! thank u!!!!!! when I got mine done when I was 14 the top ball it startedsinking in the first week and I got scared so I just took it out :( now I have tht ball scar still but I really wanna get it done again!!
hey Bree! I'm 13 and I live in England and in highschool we have school uniform :( and part of that school uniform is to have no percings ( but I got a navel cuz you cant see it) and another rule is to have your shirt tucked in. I recently had my navel piercing done so its still heeling and I don't want to tell them "I cant have my shirt tucked in because it willhurts my navel piercing and it cant ( breath) properly" so what do I do when I have to tuck my shirt in with my bellybutton piercing and it has to (Breath) ?
I asked my piercer how bad it's hurt and she told me it wouldnt hurt and honest to god it hurt worse then when I got my tattoo on my sholder blade. Lol and after I got it pierced I had to go to work which sucked
went to get my belly button pierced, was told i didnt have the right anatomy for one, i also have a scar- so i couldnt get an inverted one... ended up getting a labret ;) i know you have a biplast labret for your monroe, gonna go check out that video again
can antibiotics cause a nonhealed surface piercing to reject ? mine was fine until I was put on an antibiotic & then it pushed itself out extremely quick.
I am really in to sports but I really want to get a belly button piercing. I am also currently on the basketball team and all threw out the year have sports. My question is if I can play sports with a new piercing. How long is the least amount of time I should wait? Thank you
you look gorgeous today, i love the side bang on you! also i have a question i don't know if i should call my piercer, so in the mean time I'll ask you. (it has nothing to do with belly button piercings lmao) so i got my upper helix pierced a few days ago and it's my first helix piercing. it was fine the first few days but now almost my entire upper ear (including the inside) is swollen and red. I know it's common for any piercing to swell and be red, but this is not just around the jewelry/hole-it's almost covering my whole ear. should I be swelling this much?? should i call my piercer? i don't know if this is a big deal or not at all. thanks for any advice :) xx
+CharStarFilms Thank you! Yes that's VERY common! I suggest icing it and submerging it in a sea salt solution for 10 minutes 1-2 times a day and it'll go down. :) Just keep an eye on it. Helix piercings are VERY touchy and can get pretty painful/swollen.
+BreeAnn Barbie thank you so much :)) also i remember you saying you were thinking about stretching your ears soon, are you still planning on it? i think anywhere from a 2g to 1/2 inch would look sick on you!
Please respond: so about a week ago😂 I got my belly button pierced and I know you said redness and puss is normal but I have a little red bump is that normal? What should I do?
+BeautyByCorinne Yes, that's normal. It sounds like you just have some hyper topic scarring. Don't take the piercing out, but you can put tea tree oil on the bump to dry it out. Over time, it will just fall off. Keep doing sea salt soaks and clean it like normal.
+KKnight34 (Kiairah Knight) I deleted that quite a long time ago now so it's forever deleted. I was getting death threats due to the nature of my tweets so I got rid of it.
+Its Ana NORMAL! i got mine pierced 6 months ago & i still get pain when i bend. i figured out a trick to lessen the pain though; i just move the jewelry down. you might be able to do something like that when you clean your piercing.
+BreeAnn BarbieI got it done when I was18 and it was perfect. Let it close when I was pregnant (32 years old) and decided to have it repierced last year-rejected after 6 months of babying. 😑😔😖😤😡 Fucker!! I crie so hard.
i got a hypertrophic scar on my nose ring and found that crushed aspirin, sea salt, and tea tree oil mixed together works very well! it went away in about a week
+Kayla A Yeah those things are great! :D
I had my belly ring for about 10 months and then it rejected. I was heart broken :(

i love when you make belly piercing videos just because thats how i found you.
+Barbie ann That's awesome!
:)
I removed all temptation of changing mine and didn't buy anymore bars until mine was fully healed!! ☺️
+Caitlin Reid Me too! :D
I heard this girl talking about how she got her belly button piercing a week ago and she was gonna change it that day. 2 days later she's crying asking the teacher to go to the nurse because her belly button is leaking blood and puss. I was laughing, I've had mine for 6 months and I still don't think I should change it.
belly button piercing*
+Crowley Banana Exactly! That wasn't a very smart decision on her part! Rule #1 is to never change a piercing when it isn't healed yet.
Personally with me, I made the mistake of wearing high-waisted pants/shorts. It would always get irritated, and was pretty uncomfortable. Now that it's healed I always wear high-waisted stuff, and depending on how high-waisted your pants/shorts are it might slightly agitate the piercing.
I've had mines for 2 weeks now, it seems to be healing well. I can move it in any direction and it doesn't hurt at all :D ps your eyes are pretty❤
+Amy R_xo Thank you.
I got my belly button pierced and the woman had no clue what she was doing she pierced it so close to the surface that I could see the bar fully and also she gave me no information on how to clean it or that I shouldn't turn it. it rejected very quickly I took it out before it fully pushed the rest of the way out. then I went to kaleidoscope in springfield Mo. and a guy there pierced my belly button I'm going on my fifth month and it is healing nicely.
When is rejection rate at its highest for belly button piercings? and can it still reject after healing?
I don't even have my belly button pierced, but I really enjoyed this video! Btw really loving your hair!☺️
what happens when if i lose weight while having it? will that effect how the piercing looks or anything? also I love these videos they are awesome i do not yet have one but i am hoping to get one soon.
I was so worried about getting my belly button pirced until I watched your first video on them forever ago :p but I'm absolutely in love with it, so thanks for making these !
+Julia D You're so welcome!
My belly piercing healed really well. It was my septum piercing that rejected :(
I was told from 2 different shops that I could change it at 2 months. one of them even changed it for me, then I took it out (like I was told to) to soak it in salt water. and the other shop ( that also told me it was okay to change) that it was stupid of me...
Yay! You answered my question! ☺️
+StevieElizabeth475 YAY! :D
i wore high waisted jeans like 2 days after i had itpierced and for me it was totaly fine but isupose it just depends on you :)
stopped studying to watch the video😍💓💝❤
+just.a.crybabyx
Love how u talk about how to take care of our piercing etc! Thats how i found you too :)

you help me so freaking much with your videos because i get a belly button and with your videos i know a little bit what i can get
I'm 21 years old now and have always been a fan of belly button piercings but have been scared to get one. Not because of the pain but I'm afraid it'll get caught into things and I don't like the idea of a scar being left behind.
+L K Yeah I know what you mean. If I ever take mine out I'll for sure have a scar.
+L K The scar won't be that big or noticeable. I took mine out a few months ago and there is now just a tiny little scar from where it used to be
thank you so much for posting this I was just doing some research on my piercing bc I just got it pierced and this really helped a lot😊
+maraleex3 I'm glad it helped! :)
I got mine pierced January 10th 2015 and like the first month I cleaned it with antibacterial soap and after that I used ear care solution from claire's and it healed mine so fast I changed my ring at the 3 month mark and it didnt hurt and it was fine

+OurOceanSecrets ! you might be able to carefully & loosely put a bandage over your piercing to keep it protected from your school uniform.
I asked my piercer how bad it's hurt and she told me it wouldnt hurt and honest to god it hurt worse then when I got my tattoo on my sholder blade. Lol and after I got it pierced I had to go to work which sucked
+Hannah Nicole Yeah it sucked for me too! haha
Yay new video ☺️☺️☺️
+Tiffgod YAY!
Mine was pierced with externally threaded jewelry :O
+Jackie Mulders That's okay! So was I! Every shop is different. Nowadays internally threaded is mostly used.
went to get my belly button pierced, was told i didnt have the right anatomy for one, i also have a scar- so i couldnt get an inverted one... ended up getting a labret ;)
i know you have a biplast labret for your monroe, gonna go check out that video again
Yay I was waiting for this video! I really want to get my bellybutton pierced haha!
+Briisabellaxoxo Go for it! :D
YAYYY!!!
can antibiotics cause a nonhealed surface piercing to reject ?
mine was fine until I was put on an antibiotic & then it pushed itself out extremely quick.
yayyyy new vid it came out right on time khuz I wanna get mines done
+Katherine Esperanza yay!!!
I am really in to sports but I really want to get a belly button piercing. I am also currently on the basketball team and all threw out the year have sports. My question is if I can play sports with a new piercing. How long is the least amount of time I should wait? Thank you
how old should you be to get it done i love watching you
you should be at least 15 or 16 because by then you're more than likely done growing at least that's what my piercer told me
Age varies based on location .. but usually 18
+Samantha Turner I would recommend 18 to get it done.
you look amazing
Loved this video
+SprinklesOfRosie Aw thank you!
You are so beautiful Bree♡
+Katarina Olberg Eide aw thank you!
Good video BreeAnn!!;) ❤️
+cherries4100 Thank you! Love you Charo thanks for the support with everything.
+BreeAnn Barbie ur more than welcome doll!!;) love u 2 ❤️💋
excelente video. saludos
you look gorgeous today, i love the side bang on you!
also i have a question i don't know if i should call my piercer, so in the mean time I'll ask you. (it has nothing to do with belly button piercings lmao)

+BreeAnn Barbie thank you so much :)) also i remember you saying you were thinking about stretching your ears soon, are you still planning on it? i think anywhere from a 2g to 1/2 inch would look sick on you!
My piercer pierced my belly button with an externally threaded piece of jewellery and I'm the same as breeann so
+Crazy Creator Yeah that's okay! :) Every shop is different.
would you ever get a PO box Bree?
+Crowley Banana Possibly. :)
awesome video bree! ily! Do you want to become a piercer?
Please respond: so about a week ago😂 I got my belly button pierced and I know you said redness and puss is normal but I have a little red bump is that normal? What should I do?
she has made a vid about that "keloids and hypotropical scarring" (sorry if i spelled it wrong)
+BeautyByCorinne she talks about it in the video (if its a hypertrophic scar) at 05:20
could be hypotrophic scarring.
a 5:23 into the video she talks about this. i hope this helps!
+BeautyByCorinne Yes, that's normal. It sounds like you just have some hyper topic scarring. Don't take the piercing out, but you can put tea tree oil on the bump to dry it out. Over time, it will just fall off. Keep doing sea salt soaks and clean it like normal.
I heard some people can't get daith piercings because of their ear shape/size, is that true? Love your videos
+Larissa van 't Westende Yes that's true. I almost couldn't get mine done for that reason. I was lucky.
loved the vid
+Samantha Turner Glad you enjoyed it!
I love these . Make more 😂😂
great video!
+Brenda Rodriguez Thank you!
cool😍
+Lina Ali :)
Why don't you have a twitter account anymore? :(
+KKnight34 (Kiairah Knight) I deleted that quite a long time ago now so it's forever deleted. I was getting death threats due to the nature of my tweets so I got rid of it.
+BreeAnn Barbie Oh that blows. People have to ruin it for everyone
I just got mine pierced and it really hurts when I bend down, is that normal?
+Its Ana NORMAL!
i got mine pierced 6 months ago & i still get pain when i bend.
i figured out a trick to lessen the pain though; i just move the jewelry down.
you might be able to do something like that when you clean your piercing.
I want mine back dammit!!!!!!😫😫😫
+Nyc D GET IT!
+BreeAnn BarbieI got it done when I was18 and it was perfect. Let it close when I was pregnant (32 years old) and decided to have it repierced last year-rejected after 6 months of babying. 😑😔😖😤😡 Fucker!! I crie so hard.
