Tounge Piercing


Question Posted Friday July 11 2008, 1:00 pm

I just got my tounge pierced 2 days ago. I was told that I need to keep the long barbell that they put in for a month, and I will then be able to replace it with a shorter barbell. However, I've tried to see if I am able to unscrew the barbell ball on my own but I've been unsuccessful in doing that. My friend told me that in time it will loosen so that I will be able to, but I am not sure. In a month, will I be able to take it out on my own or will I have to go back to the place for them to remove it for me? Should I got back to the place now and tell them of my difficulties?
Thanks in advance for the help..

Some places pierce with barbells that require a tool to be unscrewed, meaning you have to go back to get it changed. you may have one of those. but if they didnt tell you you had to come back, then you probably dont have that.

also, tongue rings are obviously gonna be slick because it's in your mouth. if you dont go back to the place, try to find some latex gloves. they let you get a grip on the ball rather than your fingers and usually the ball will then twist right off.

I personally don't have my tongue pierced, but when I got my bellybutton pierced, I tried taking it out early to put a new one in. I tried everything to unscrew that ring, and I just couldn't get it. I then later realized that on that particular ring, you had to unscrew the bottom ball and not the top. I'm not sure if that's the same with you, but maybe give it a try?

If not, I would call the piercing place and ask.

There is a reason why they want you to leave it in or a certain amount of time You can open yourself up to all kinds of problems. Go back to the place who did it and talk to them.
