Question

Would a tongue piercing affect my speech?

Community Answer

Question

After I get my tongue pierced, when can I change to an invisible ring?

Community Answer

Technically you can change it anytime, but not yourself. Go to your piercer (or any piercer) and have them to do it for you.

Question

What do I have to eat when I get my tongue pierced?

Community Answer

You can eat soft foods for the first day or so, but after that you should be able to resume eating your normal food. You can also consult with your piercer if you have additional questions.

Question

What about a horizontal tongue (snake eyes) piercing?

Community Answer

Use a plastic retainer piercing. Otherwise, you can't really hide that type of tongue piercing.

Question

Can I get a nipples piecing if I have very small nipples and will they get big?

BodyBlingPiercings

Community Answer

Yes, you can get nipple piercings even though they might be small. After getting the piercing, your nipples will swell a bit, but it will go down as you correctly clean the piercings and as they heal.
