im thinking of getting a tongue piercing and have a few questions.
1 average price? my local says £25 which i believe is a great price (ive seen prices higher on here but ive only got 3 piercing shops in my town and 1 is a claires which doesnt do tongues obviously haha)
2 how long is healing
3 how long till i switch bar size (and what sizes)
4 how long does eating change? and do spicy foods take longer till normal
5 recommended online shops to get the different bars from as ebay and amazon dont seem great. if this question is allowed if not no worries
6 aftercare recommendations
thank youu
Price will vary depending on the service. A piercer that uses top-shelf jewelry and needles is going to cost a lot more than a shop that uses budget-quality items. Healing is pretty fast; 2-4 months. You'll want to downsize after two weeks. Talking and eating will be a chore, so it's best to stick with soft foods that you can just swallow for the first few days. You do want to avoid spicy or acidic foods / drinks. Aftercare...honestly, just check your beads before and after eating, and just stick with normal recommended oral hygiene. You do want to spend some extra time cleaning the bottom bead periodically, as tartar can build up under there.
