Here's a fresh floating navel from earlier this month featuring a titanium claw-set synthetic white opal from @industrialstrength - ** A floating style navel piercing is necessary when the navel goes flat when sitting. The disc on the bottom doesn't disturb the natural motion of the tissue (like a ball or gem would), which helps it heal more efficiently. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Plus a shot of the exclusive 'I got pierced by Rich' sticker! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 @safepiercing #safepiercing @iconic_tattoo_detroit @briotechusa #piercingaftercare #navel #navelpiercing #floatignavel #floatingnavelpiercing #opal #piercing #bodypiercing #piercings #jewelry #fashion #piercingsofinstagram #piercingoftheday #associationofprofessionalpiercers #detroit #casscorridor #michiganpiercer #puremichigan #wsu #waynestate #ccs #collegeforcreativestudies #modifiedmichigan (at iconic tattoo & body piercing) https://www.instagram.com/p/CWdi5EHrh1t/?utm_medium=tumblr
