Would it be better to get your navel pierced with a barbell or ring? which is be!


Question:

Would it be better to get your navel pierced with a barbell or ring? which is better for preventing infection?


Answers:

I don't remember the site I read it on, but before I got my navel pierced I read up on barbell vs rings, and I found a lot more stuff leaning towards a barbell being less likely to get infected. Which makes sense because it has less of a chance to get caught on stuff (but still be careful when putting on anything particularly prone to snagging..such as anything with mesh or fishnet, etc..) I've had mine for over a year and never had a problem. Well the only problem I ever had was it got a little red and itchy when I took my barbell out and forgot to put it back in after about ten hours and it almost didn't go back in..So I used vaseline to get it to go in better - big mistake. But if you take care of it it should be fine. Plus I think most people would say a barbell looks a lot cuter and there are many more styles where as with a ring you pretty much just have the captive ring to choose from. Good luck!
