Top down navel jewelry offers comfort options

February 22, 2005
By:  Lori Wilkerson

Navel jewelry is one of the most popular styles of body jewelry around, but because belly button piercings vary so much from person to person it can be difficult for some women to find comfortable jewelry that’s stylish.

One of the primary problems is that some women find the dangles that hang off of the bottom ball of a curved or banana barbell uncomfortable. This is especially true for women who have a rather deep navel piercing.

If the belly button jewelry tends to get pulled into the navel itself, it can be uncomfortable and irritate the skin. The newer "top down belly ring" style solves this problem. With this, the dangle is attached to the topmost ball so that it swings free over the belly button itself. Some women prefer this style of jewelry because they say it lays flatter, too.

Top down jewelry for the navel is often hinged where the dangle connects to the ball as well for ease of movement. It’s also a popular style for "framing" the belly button with ornate lattice work or patterns such as yin-yangs.

Because it is hinged on the top ball, the jewelry doesn’t restrict movement while it accentuates the navel. So if you’ve tried dangling belly rings before and didn’t like it, try again with a few top down dangles, and you may be surprised at how different this style feels.
