All eyes on you; Diamond Belly Rings will make you get noticed!!

I find diamond belly rings sexy. They draw attention to a womans belly which is the cradle of life and very alluring!
Body piercing has been practiced for the last 5000 years. As it was then, it is used as a means of personal expression and recently, as a fashion trend.

On the other hand, navel piercing is a relatively modern invention and dates back to the Egyptian Pharos & members of their families who were permitted to pierce their navels.
It was a class or status thing and commoners who pierced their navels were put to death.
Its only in very unique circumstances where a “common” girl was born with a “perfect belly button” was allowed to have it pierced & therefore elevated social standing.

The navel is now become one of the most popular piercing thus the popularity of diamond belly rings.
Your navel is a depressed scar where your umbilical cord used to be & it tends to collect dirt same as your ears do. It can get fungal infection when not cleaned regularly even at the best of times.
Once pierced in order to put a belly ring in it, extra care must be taken with cleaning it to prevent serious infections.

If you don’t already have a navel piercing, know that it will take between 3 months to 1 year to heal once pierced due to where it is on your body.
Its the middle of your body which moves a lot, clothes will rub on it & even the detergent you use if harsh can have an effect on it
The healing time depends on your weight, diet, general health, profession (if you move around a lot or not) and how much care you take care of your navel.

One of the ways for you to speed up the healing process is to get barbell style belly rings as they get knocked around less so heal faster. You can also change them yourself without the need for pliers which you need to change normal diamond belly rings piercings.

Below are some steps to take to ensure your navel heals well

* Don’t use scented & harsh soaps. Use a mild antibacterial soap or sea salt and wash your navel twice a day.

*Make sure to always rotate your diamond belly ring so that your skin doesn’t heal around your ring & tear the inside of the wound when you do move it after a period of time. This will hurt and can cause you to get an infection.

*Wash yourself well after heavy exercise or heavy sweating as sweat is acidic and will irritate the raw skin on your navel when its healing.
Use a small amount of tea tree oil which is anti-bacterial as a lubricating agent to keep the belly ring moving & reduce the inflammation or rawness.

*Avoid wearing any tight clothes which can rub against your diamond belly rings & cause irritation. Wear natural fibers as much as possible & also clothes which will aerate your belly as much as possible.
This will enable your belly ring to get sunlight which helps dry the skin & helps you produce Vitamin D which promotes healing in your body.

When you get pregnant, you have several options to follow. You can either remove your diamond belly ring & put it back after you give birth. The down side to that is the belly ring hole will close.
You could also keep it until your sixth month when you can remove the belly ring and put a piece of fishing line in your ring hole to keep the hole open.
The other option though not that pretty is to get a larger belly ring as your pregnancy progresses due to your skin stretching.

You might be asking yourself, is it work the work. I say YES!!! The end result justifies the process of having diamond belly rings & looking fab whenever you flash your belly!!
