Ashamed to say I was one of those twats getting their belly button pieced aged 17. Doesn't look great these days. If I had some important belly button occasion, say graduting from belly dancing school or naval college or summit, I'd probably buy these.
The hole in your belly button will heal up and close. Just be thankful you weren't manipulated into permanent decisions like cutting off healthy body parts. I think the acid I took in the 70s kicks back in sometimes.
I thank God every day my parents stood behind me when I was on the internet as a child, and also that I did not get some shitty band tattoo. Also grateful that I did not hang around anyone who abused prescription medicine, bc that is half as bad as scooping out your thighmeat to make a useless dong flap.
