Each barbell is scaled to the size of the tongue to be pierced therefore there is no "actual size" barbell for tongues, this is why you need to have the piercing done by a professional body piercer who will scale and measure the tongue and place the correctly sized barbell into the piercing.

What is the chance of your tongue piercing getting infected if your three months pregnant?

generally pregnancy does not interfere with piercings. if your pregnant and you have your belly button pierced, put a zip tie or long bar in it so the piercing will not tear. its likely that if your tongue is infected that it is not pregnancy related. try getting a long bar, and see if that helps.

What size tongue bar do you use to pierce?

the best bar to use is a long one because your tongue swells a lot and if the bar is too short it can swell over the ball and cause infection or even worse. About a inch long is good but a 1/4 inch size is what i used and it was okay. it all depends on how much it swells and how you keep the swelling down. i would talk with your piercer before.


How do you get the belly bar out of the tongue piercing?

Ive done my tongue piercing couple of days ago its not swollen but my gums at the bottom hurt why will the pain go away?

It's probably because of the long bar in your tongue. Long bars are necessary because they allow your newly-pierced tongue to swell without swallowing the jewelry. If its really painful, go to your piercer after the swelling goes down to get a shorter bar. Or you could just wait till it fully heals and change it yourself.


What size jewelry should you start off with for a tongue piercing?

when you get your tongue pierced, the piercer will put in a long bar to accompany the swelling, as it does swell quite a lot. But after at least 2 weeks, you may change it to a smaller one. Also, dont keep your tongue bar out for too long, as it does heal quite quickly. It may sting at first while you change it, but just suck on some ice cubes or something. Hope that helped.
