Captive Bead Belly Button Rings – We don’t sell clip-on belly rings, but we can share a trick for making it look like you have your belly button pierced that’s totally pain-free. Just buy a captive bead ring, pop out the captive bead, and then slide the gap between the two ends of the ring over the flap of skin that forms the upper rim of your belly button cavity. If it’s too loose to stay put, just squeeze the two sides of the captive ring gently to narrow the gap and make it fit snugly but comfortably over your belly button. Voila! You can also check out our variety of navel clicker rings. The clicker mechanism has a hinged closure, which allows for easy insertion and removal of the jewelry.
Tip: Make sure to put the captive bead somewhere safe. That way, if you ever get your belly button pierced for real, you’ll have a great starter belly button ring. Don’t fret if you lose the captive bead. We sell replacement captive beads, too, if you ever need one.
