Bad first time navel piercing experience, ready to get another?

I'm getting an inverse navel piercing in a little over a week, and I must admit I'm a little nervous for a good reason. I already have a standard navel piercing (done 6 years ago), and for some reason when I got it done, the piercer took 10 painful seconds to get the needle through me...why might this have been? Most people I know who had this done said it only took a second to actually get pierced, so I was wondering why mine might have taken longer. I'm hoping it's because the piercer at the time (he's gone now) was having an off day, but naturally, now that I'm ready to get another type of navel piercing, I'm a little nervous that it might've taken so long because my skin is just that thick and tough there. Is that possible, that some people just have "hard-to-pierce" areas?

i had the same problem. everyone's body is different. everyone's skin is different. the girl piercing me was VERY experienced and knew what she was doing it was just my body giving HER and me grief.





in my case i have a small belly button... so it was hard to clamp and even harder to get the needle through. so it took her four tries before it went through... normally it takes one. she was more surprised than me. i was terrified cuz i am scared of needles and almost got sick and almost passed out, lol.





but i love my piercing. i'm glad i did it.
Reply:No need to be nervous, I had an inverse peircing done bout 3 years ago. It took the guy about 10 minutes to put the ring in , I think it just depends on the person who is doing the peircing.
Reply:Sounds like the piercer was either new or just didnt have a clue. It shouldnt take that long for a needle to go through unless you have alligator skin. Dont let it bother you. Its not like you are going to the same person. I understand why it would scare you. Honestly, I think when you get this done and see what a good piercing is like, you wont freak out anymore. Good luck!
