ok, so a year or even more ago, i went and got my navel pierced..
all went well, because it healed fast and didnt really get infected..
i was very happy with it, untill someone commented negatively on it
they said that the ring seems to be hanging by a very tiny section of skin, and wondered why it was like that//
i have never noticed this before, but did take a close look at it, and saw that the person was rite..
now i cant even figure out if it was pierced like this.. or if it became like this after some time
this didnt really bother me, untill i got some very vERY nice belly rings for my birthday..
i tried them on, and their problem is that the stick is too long.. so it definetely does not look good on me since there is so little skin to hold it..

rite now, my pircing doesnt hurt or anything.. and i have left it out for months at a time, and the hole didnt close even a tiny bit

so now im wondering if i can just pierce it again.. because i do want it to look nice..

also, any suggestiins on closing up the piercing? i have tried but.. no luck..

Naval piercings take a long time to close once they've healed. You should be able to pierce it again, but be prepared for it to hurt more than the first time; you're probably going to be piercing through scar tissue, which I hear hurts like hell.
