Ok, since I was abut 13 years old(i'm 19 now) I've always wanted to pierce my navel, so finally on the 11 January, 2002 i did it. I live in St Kitts and her parlour is the only lisenced one here. S & S Arts and Tattoos. Anyway I had to do it standing up, it was easier. She counted to 3 and then through the needle went, no pain at all. She then slipped in my bananbell, cleaned me up and i was done. I love it so much, it's really cute. Now keeping it a secret from my mom until my birthday next month.
