Belly Button Piercing

I'm trying to do this right (go to a professional), but not spend half a paycheck on one little hole in my skin. Does anyone know where the best/cheapest place is to get your belly button pierced? (Preferably in St. Mary's Co)

I know Underground is $50 and I've heard that someplace else is $60...

TIA!

If half your paycheck is $50-$60 you should probably reprioritize where you're spending your money.

Nah, I was exaggerating. I've been wanting to get it pierced for a while, but I've also been trying to keep on a tight budget. I haven't spent $50 on something for me in months so it feels like a lot more than it really is.
I have the money, I just also have this problem of over-thinking and over-planning so when I envision spending $50, I think of how that could be a tank of gas, or food for a week, or saved for the future, and I don't end up buying what I wanted. I'm trying to force myself to do something for me and stop putting it off.

Very well then. Carry on! I think some hair salons do it.

Why me??
I got mine done in 1997. I think then it was like $25 at Mystic. I just took it out this summer since I am pregnant.

It's not bad at all. I've had mine done for 15 years now and have had to have it redone 3 times due to it working it's way out. The worst part is the clamp.

Oh cool. Where is that?

All I really know of in St. Mary's is Underground, Ink Wizard and Chronic Ink...I know that there are others, but I can't think of any at the moment...

Underground did a fine job, and it was about $50 in 2004. I got an inexpensive silver ring (hoop) When my daughter had hers pierced she did the barbell. She healed better than I did.

Yea I forget the guys name that did mine. I was nervous and he was patient. There is a place in crofton that does really good work. I got my nose pierced there and my tat done there and they give you a popsicle when you get pierced!

Some places will only pierce with a hoop since it is easier to keep clean and heal. You do realize navel piercings take usually 6 months to heal and require fastidious attention in order to avoid infection? If you do get the hoop, once healed it is easy enough to switch to a barbell. Make sure the piercing is not done too shallow or the typical barbell lengths will end up being too long.
