Tongue piercing....
 

Thinking about getting my tongue pierced and wondered if any of you lot have had this experience,and if you wouldn't mind answering some questions?....
How painful on a scale of 1-10 was it?
How long did it take to heal?
Was the aftercare difficult?
Did it make you dribble or anything for a while after?
What piercing studio did you have it done at?
Would you recomend having it done or not?
and exactly how useful are those vibrating tongue bars? :D

I have had my lip pierced twice and wouldn't mind having it done again-not as painful as people make out etc.....is this as true of the tongue?

TIA xXx

hi i havnt had it done myself but my daughters friend had it done at zodiac in blackburn. they peirced it with a large bar then she went back a week later to have a smaller bar put in and the large bar removed. she couldnt eat for 2 days and she talked abit funny lol.

Re: Tongue piercing....
 

Is she still talking a bit funny? I have noticed that with people with pieced tongues.

Sod that :eek:
At least when your get you ear pierced you can shout Ouch to help with the pain a bit, have you tried saying Ouch with someone holding the end of your tongue with a pair of pliers :D

Alright, I know you just tried it - now try saying F in elll that hurt :rolleyes: :D

is it not annoying when you get food stuck in it....LOL

its annoying when people keep flicking their tongue and messing with it., personally i wouldnt have it done, whats the point in having a stud in the middle of your tongue, and it looks tatty:rolleyes:

You will find that ageing causes enough 'mutilation' of your body, without volunteering to add some when young :D
Not a good idea , methinks

I had my tounge done a few years ago and have only just taken it out, It didnt hurt much really the guy who did it said its the easiest place to pierce like piercing butter! it was a little uncomfortable after and your tounge does swell a bit you dont get food stuck in it!!

As long as you make sure you keep it clean theres not much after care needed, only thing that did me was i chipped my tooth because the small bar they put in after was too big they put a standard 15mm bar in and i needed a 12mm for that to fit snug. Once your used to it you cant tell its there and you wont talk funny when you get the small bar in. Just make sure you check the bar now and again to make sure the balls in the ends are tight cause they can work loose then you could swallow it!

I got mine done in preston where i live so couldnt recomend anywhere for you sorry.

as one who did much to regret when young, dont think its a good idea, think it looks cheap also.;)

Re: Tongue piercing....
 

i wanted to have one done but the funny thing is that every time i went to the shop i panicked and ended up having a tattoo instead, i got 3 tattoos lol

Re: Tongue piercing....
 

I haven't had it done but know someone who did, she couldn't eat for several days and talked funny for a few weeks, dont think she kept it in for very long either.

Re: Tongue piercing....
 

i would imagine a tattoo hurt more than your tongue peirced even though i havnt had my tongue peirced but i had a tattoo done on my back of my first grandaughters name and it killed lol. :D

Re: Tongue piercing....
 

I wouldn't fancy it myself, I don't see the point....but whatever floats your boat Misskitty. :D

A colleague of mine had it done a few years back. The initial swelling was uncomfortable, she was dribbling and spitting for about 2 weeks and could only eat soup during this time.

When the swelling went down she was ok.
