text: can you get your belly button periced on either the top or the bottom or do u have to perice all the way? i just wanted to know. because someone told me you could either have the top or bottom done. is that true? i think that it has to go through all the way, but it has to be the top section of your belly button, make sure to get it professionally done b/c if it's put in the wrong place you can be permanently paralyzed.
