Many people make the mistake of choosing the most attractive ring for their first piercing. However, if you do this then you could end up putting yourself at risk of a nasty infection. Just as when you have your ears pierced, you will usually be given a simple design to wear until the piercing has healed.

However, if you would like to choose your own belly ring then you can; you just need to follow some basic rules.

What Belly Button Rings to Look For

When searching for the perfect first time belly button rings, you need to look for certain materials. One of the most common is Bioplast and it is ideal because it has a non-stick surface. It is not uncommon for crust to form after you have had your naval piercing. If this isn’t cleaned then it can cause an infection. Some belly button rings attract the crust and it sticks to the surface, making it hard to remove. Bioplast navel rings eliminate this problem and they are more hygienic to wear.

Another good material to choose is titanium. One of the best things about titanium belly rings is that they are quite light to wear. Stainless steel is a good material to opt for, but unfortunately they can be slightly heavy. So if you are not used to wearing a belly ring then it could be a little too uncomfortable. Also there are many fake stainless steel rings out there which could cause a reaction to the skin. This means that you have to be extra careful when choosing stainless steel belly rings.

So when you do choose your ideal first time belly button rings, make sure that you choose from the materials above. So many people do not realise that their first ring is an important one. You cannot just choose any old design as it could cause problems. Overall if you follow the advice above you will end up having the best belly ring to suit your needs.

You can buy a belly button ring of your choice before you go to the studio!

You just have to know which materials don’t react with body tissues and allow your navel piercing heal quickly.

Below I’ve listed the best options for first time belly piercings.

Choose from:

Gold

Stainless Steel

Bioplast

Titanium.

Gold Navel Rings

Choose 14k gold or higher when buying yellow gold. Choose nickel- free white gold. Gold rings are durable, safe and extremely stylish. Our range starts at $29.99 and there  is free worldwide delivery. For the ultimate in elegance, check out the new Gold and Diamond collection, all of which are above 14k and nickel-free.

Bioplast navel ring

According to mainstream body jewelry opinion bioplast is the best choice for your first time belly button piercing. This material is great because of its biocompatibility and flexibility. If you use this material, your fresh piercing will be less likely to get infected and swollen – bioplast is proven to have great healing qualities. And if you’re allergic to metal body jewelry, I recommend bioplast navel rings as the best from non-metallic belly button jewelry.

Stainless steel belly button rings

Belly button piercings made from steel are fine for your first time navel piercing. This metal used in body jewelry is hypo-allergenic alloy. There are a few other metals added to make it resistant to corrosion and prevent rusting. Stainless steel is most widely used metal for making belly ring shafts – the balls and dangles come in many other materials.

In fact – if you want to buy a steel belly piercing, you don’t have to search for “steel belly rings” or try to find a category saying “steel”. Most of belly jewelry is made from steel unless it says “gold”, “titanium” or “PVD coated” etc.

Titanium belly ring

This is a great choice because it is a very strong metal and is nearly as twice as light as stainless steel. I recommend titanium belly rings – there are people sensitive to steel whereas titanium is a pure metal and isn’t mixed with something else. In addition, titanium body jewelry comes in colors, but watch out! – not red or black. If you see a black belly button ring and it’s said to be titanium, it’s more likely a stainless steel plated with titanium, which is not the best choice for the first time belly button piercings.

So – let’s conclude with what you have to do to get the belly ring before making to the piercing studio.

Choose a belly button ring made from one of the above mentioned materials.

Make sure it doesn’t have any parts that can’t undergo sterilization – acrylic or flexible plastic dangles and balls.

Also, be prepared to take care of your piercing! H2 ocean (below) and cleaning swabs are highly recommended.

Buy it!:-)
