It was about 2007 as i'd just started college. And I was intrigued by piercings but too scared to get one done. My parents didn't agree with it, but, with college ID in hand, I went to get my first piercing.
I decided on a navel piercing as it was hidden and the piercer
http://www.pierceartist.co.uk told me it was the least painful I could get.
The piercing itself was fine, no pain at all, nothing bad. It stayed healthy for about 4 months and then started to migrate which was painful as hell! I finally decided it wasn't worth the effort and took it out. Never had it re done but would really like to!!!
