    Mine hurt like a 3-4 its wasn't that bad out of my belly button, tongue and tragus. My tongue was the easiest. The only thing that sucks is that for the first week you have to reteach yourself how to eat. You bite down on the bar a lot if you eat slow you should get the hang of it after the first week. I hope you love yours like I love mine.

    For me it didn't harm in any respect. I felt it, however it was extra like a tiny tiny little sting. For those who make sure your eyes closed and also you consider of some thing else (or just rely to 10) you'll be able to have no idea customarily. I was honestly within the center of thinking "omg I can't turn back now. I are not able to even discontinue her. Omg why, what if....Oh". I didn't recognize the needle was once by way of or whatever. Nevertheless, some pals have their tongue pierced and they say it damage when it used to be pierced. I particularly really consider it depends upon the person to be honest. Nevertheless, whether the piercing hurt or not, after it can be executed there's no affliction. Simply suffering with the swelling/trouble speakme/no eating. That is additionally specific for everybody. Some persons are first-class the subsequent couple of days, others are nonetheless struggling in a weeks time (like me!). Not 100% definite however I consider you have got to be 18. In UK anyway. I've noticeable American youtube movies of 13 year olds! Would get away with 16-18 with parental consent? Just right good fortune anyway. :) PS: I just learn anyone's reply saying it is like biting your tongue. It can be really now not. I would ready myself for like a 12 months via biting the middle of my tongue with a dogs. Used to be nothing like it. Desirous about it now, a needle is tiiiiiny in comparison with the tip of a teeth. Do not worry.

    I have 7 or 8 piercings and that one didn't hurt. But it is scary because the tougue is thick. It will be swollen and you'll have trouble eating and talking. But it will not be painful !

    it feels kind of gross more than pain, it will swell up after you leave the piercer

    eating is uncomfortable and talking is kinda weird

    one thing about getting your tongue pierced is that you have to be very careful not to crush your back molars. i had to have 2 molars pulled because i crushed em chewing
