Are you ever too old to get your belly button pierced?

I got my ears pierced for the first time when I was twenty five years old. But I have never gotten my belly button pierced. Never wanted to do so. Wouldn't really fit in with my image as a mom. I guess if I were a teen and could wear the hip hugger jeans, then a little belly ring would be cute. Would you ever get a belly button ring?

I have mine done and have had it for awhile, at least 9 years. I am almost 30. I don't see anything wrong with anyone of any age getting it done. At 25 I was still wearing those low cut hip hugger jeans. heck, in a month or so I am hoping to fit back into them!

I would say your ever to old to get your belly pieced, thats like asking if your too old for a tattoo or something. Your never too old for anything even stuff like this. I would love my belly button pierced but due to medical reasons I cant have piercing or tattoos (not that I'm brave enough for them!!)

i personally wouldn't simply cause i know i'd probably accidentally rip it out. i'm very active and i just know it'd catch on something. but too old?nah.if you want it,go for it.it's your choice.

My mother got my ears pierced when i was in elementary school... and that i think is the only part of my body that will ever be pierced... i sometimes cringe when i see women and even men show they belly button piercing... and i think that is just so inappropriate... well... call me conservative... and i think i am... when it comes to body piercing...

I had mine done when I was about 24, it looked really cool, I loved it and there were so many different styles that I could have. I had to let it go though after the birth of my third son as all the stretching had pushed it out of shape. Also my belly is all wobbly through childbirth and so it would not look nice anyway. If my belly was straight and nice though I would definately have it done again!

I've thought about it, but I wouldn't want my daughter thinking that she wants one. I have already had a talk with her about tattoos and piercings. She can't get any until she is 18 (that's the rule my mom used) and she understood. She's definitely not a teenager yet, so we'll have to see what happens then. She's pretty intelligent and knows the right from the wrong.
