A belly button piercing is one of the most popular piercings of all, especially among women, and is also very popular as an introductory piercing.
The belly button piercing (regular) is the classic of all belly button piercings, so to speak, and is inserted into the upper skin fold of the belly button.
Decorating the belly button has a rich history. In the past, the belly button was richly decorated in many cultures, but with paintings rather than piercings.
A pierced navel, on the other hand, was not captured in a photograph until relatively late in the 1970s. Later in the 1980s, the Gauntlet Piercing Magazine PFIQ (Piercing Fan International Quarterly) dedicated a series to navel piercings for the first time and thus officially introduced them to the specialist public.
The belly button piercing gained great popularity a little later when it was seen on various models and pop stars, for example in the music video (Cryin') by the rock band Aerosmith.
