What would be the best method for piercing my own tongue web.
I know you're gonna say it's stupid and self piercing is bad.
I have quite a lot of experience in self piercing. I use gloves, make everything sterile and also use proper needles.
I haven't found much information about this piercing, but I love it.
I can't afford to go to a proper place, and I prefer self piercing.
Don't ''give advice'' if you're gonna say something like it's stupid!! Ewww Don't do it yourself.. etc.
Those don't answer my question. (link)

Okay..
But firstly, I need to let you know...tongue piercings are the most dangerous piercing to do by yourself.
There is an artery that runs through the tongue, and if you puncture this, you can bleed to death.
But I guess if you still want to do this...
What my friend Ashley did was take a pin and poke it through her tongue..its really that simple.
Taking care of it is the harder part:
1. Use a barbell that is a lot longer than normal barbells, because your tongue will swell, possibly twice its normal size.
2. Use mouthwash...not Listerine and not anything containing alcohol.
3. If you get an infection do NOT take the barbell out.
4. In about a month, you can change the barbell to a normal sized one...about a 5/8...but dont do this before your tongue is its normal size again!!
But, again, be careful!! This is a very dangerous piercing to do at home!!
