Basically at any age.
If you are 16+ you can get any piercing without any parental guidance. But if you are under 16 you will need an adult with you.
I have both my lip and belly button pierced. I had my belly button pierced with a hoop and my lip pierced with a bar/stud. The belly button was more irritating then the lip because a hoop piercing requires the piercer to clamp it shut and fiddle around with a new pierced part instead of just screwing a ball on. I recommend any new piercings to be with a bar/stud as it is quicker and less irritating. Put it this way, I'm going for a 2nd lip piercing and not another belly button piercing ;)
As long as you have parental consent, yes.
4 weeks :) Thanks
Yes, you can swim in a river if you have your belly button pierced. However, if it is a new piercing, the general advice is to wait at least a month before swimming as the wound needs time to heal.
What kind of person would ask this question,but ii would defintily get a new phone.
No you shouldnt. the chlorine in the water can over dry a new piercing.
getting in a hot tub would not hurt a new belly button piercing, but your not supposed to. you should wait at least 6weeks after you got the piercing to sit in water. (I know this because i have ma belly button pierced. i have it pierced all around =)..) Anyway, i suggest you put a water proof band-aid over it or tape or something to cover it up b4 you get in the hot tub.

You usually will just have a plan curved barbell. Gems and dangles can get caught easily and that's horrible for a new piercing.
Actually nothing, just be sure you wash the area very well to prevent powder from going into your new piercing.
Getting your belly pierced isn't bad! It hurts a little if you knock it, i can understand where your mum is coming from, if you don't clean it properly then it can get infected! shes only looking out for you! just tell her the good points about it - like it looks good and you can be more happy and confident! why not even let her go along with you to get it done, she might allow you then and feel more involved within the situation.
It is NOT RECOMMENDED to go tanning after any body piercing. When lying in a tanning bed, the jewelry that is in a new piercing will heat up and burn your raw pierced skin. This is not good for the healing process. I'm not sure what happens if you do, but to be on the safe side, DON'T TAN WITH A NEW PIERCING!!!!
