Hi Bethel,
If it is done by a professional piercer who is experienced in tongue piercing, the procedure is very fast and can be said to be not that painful as expected or should we say scared! On the other hand, keep in mind that the swelling afterwards can make you feel a bit uncomfortable as it may affect your eating and drinking for a few days.
HEALING TIME
It is generally 4 to 6 weeks depending on the aftercare. To avoid the infection and control the swelling, try putting small ice cubes on your tongue. Cleaning your piercing four times a day is crucial. It is best to use an antiseptic solution or an aftercare solution. At first, you are pierced with a bigger piercing to compensate for the swelling. To prevent the potential damage to your teeth, after it is healed completely, change it with a smaller one. Try speaking at minimum at least for the first days, avoid hot or fizzy drinks. Bad news for smokers! Keep away during the complete healing time!

No. The ear piercing gun and stud are designed to be used on earlobes only. The tongue is a complex group of two major muscles joined by connective tissue and convered by over 10,000 tastebuds and pain receptors. Tongue piercing is intended to go between the muscle groups at least* (*at minimum) to a depth of 3/4 of an inch from the tip of the tongue. The ear piercing gun will not have the reach nor will the studs be long enough to allow for the swelling the will take place after the piercing is done.

Tongue piercings do not hurt much. Even a tongue web or double tonuge which seem to have a higher pain level, do not hurt too much. As ar as I 've experienced, an ear piercing hurts more than any other piercing. I am plannig to have a conch piercing and just read at site rightpiercing dot com that it hurts too much if I plan to have an inner and outer conch at the same time. Emily
No the level of pain you have during the day time is the same level at night, and the pain will decrease as the piercing heals and the swelling goes down. The previous answer was highly incorrect and has been deleted for that reason. Leave the jewellery in and follow your after care instructions and the piercing will heal just fine.
The initial piercing is not painful. The only thing felt is the pressure of needle. The clamp on the tongue hurts more than the actual piercing. The healing after is the painful part. The tongue will swell, and the muscle will be sore. As the tongue adjust to the metal and heals itself from the initial tear and swelling, the pain will subside, generally over a few days following the piercing. By experience, a piercing in the upper cartilage hurts more than a piercing in the tongue.
A tongue piercing is a piercing through the tongue or any part of the tongue, including the web underneath.

Get it anyway. The pain lasts seconds, your sick piercing lasts forever!
i have both. pain wise my tongue hurt alot more. it was a sharp pain and my tongue was swollen for quite awhile afterward. tattoos only have a constant tingle-like sensation when your getting them done
Pain levels can vary from person to person, but generally a tongue piercing is rated around a 5-6 out of 10 in terms of pain. The discomfort is typically brief and manageable.
It all depends on if you have a high or low tolerance for pain. If you can't stand pain, the piercing will be very high on a scale of 1 to 10.
Drink or eat really hot or warm drinks it makes the pain sooo much better
No. A genital piercing includes any piercing on or around your genitals. Not your tongue.
