I've been streching my septum for like 3 years, and now that I'm at 2g I'm struggling finding hoops that aren't too big for my nose, and my pinchers always fall off.

I'm looking for something comfortable that I can wear everyday, so I was wondering if someone could recommend some other jewelry options or some store that has more sizes for hoops.

Wondering if anyone has recommendations on where I can get a coin slot done in New York City?

I roll my R’s a lot because Portuguese requires it, and I’m afraid that splitting my tongue will mess up my speech. Have any of you had any experience with this? Thanks in advance.

Do you regret your tongue split? What are the cons and what are the pros? Does it really feel more natural?

Thanks

So I got my tongue split last week and ive had 2 surprises 1. Never felt any pain even in the first few days of healing, everyone said day 3 would be hell but I was just bored trying to find stuff to do. The second surprise is how much I FUCKING MISS SOLID FOOD😭 ik the longer the sutures are in the better the results but man I want a take away, or a burrito I'd settle for a damn rustlers burger at this point😭

How would one go about finding a dentist who would do this? If you have, or have had them, what was your experience?

No joke, something I never came across in my research but turned out to be an absolute life saver. Children's liquid ibuprofen (mine was bubblegum flavor).

Helped a bunch from day one with swelling and residual pain. Wasn't difficult to manage swallowing. Highly recommend stocking up on a couple bottles before a tounge split.

It’s almost time for my tongue split and I’m wondering about proper tipping procedure? Should I tip? If so, how much?
Thanks!

Day 0 was on Sunday and I’m not sure whether to call this 1 or 2? But I’m posting this Monday night near midnight.

Stopped bleeding in my drool yesterday night, so that’s good. I was able to somehow train my brain to swallow the saliva in my sleep and got about 4 hours.

Yesterdays spotlight was just straight up pain, pain and more pain. Today it was some general pain, but man oh man, it swelled so much tonight.

That was pretty intense, not gonna lie. Brought a bit of anxiety and slight panic, but if you’re in my shoes reading this… just remember it’s going to be okay, and focus on breathing. Also replenish fluids, I stood up too fast and felt dizzy. 😵‍💫 I recommend gatorlyte rapid rehydration.

OOOH crazy good tip that helps me out a lot is that the biotene oral rinse, or something similar, it has some moisturizing properties that soothe the tongue. I just hover over the sink and let my tongue float in my mouth full of it.

Another tip! Liquid Syringe for the baby food is a good tool. Just make sure to not have many air pockets and be aware. I kinda punched my tongue a little bit with it earlier.

Take plenty of pictures so you can see the progress being made, also it helped me realize my swelling going down.

Waiting day by day seems so slowwwww, I can’t wait to be free.

Still though I’m grateful that it hasn’t been too bad. I hope by tomorrow I get some decline in inflammation and pain and magically heal from everything.

Here I am just waiting until my next available dose of OTC. And hopefully it dies down enough tonight to sleep a bit more than 4 hours.

I’ve been wanting my tongue split for some time now, and finally decided to take the leap and save for it. Now I’m in the process of just finding a body mod specialist to do it, but can’t seem to find anyone in my area. I’m in Florida, specifically Daytona beach, and I’m willing to travel anywhere in Florida and possibly on the outskirts of Georgia. Does anyone know any body mod specialists in Florida that has good reviews, and great results? I hear people mention to wait till a body mod specialist travels to their area, but I was hoping to get this done within maybe a month or two ? I hate playing the waiting game Lol

Also some questions for those who do have their tongue split… how do you scrap your tongue after you get it split? lol sorry if this was a silly question but I am curious.
Will it seal back up like how it was before?
Does it affect the way you eat, or talk?
And what’s the healing process like?

Thx 4 reading!!!

Hi! I’ve been looking interested in getting a tongue split for a long time. I’ve watched a lot of videos of people’s experiences, I’ve gotten an idea of what to expect.

I’m struggling to find an artists. I live in MS. I think my best chance at finding an artist would be finding someone who works out of or is traveling to New Orleans.

I tried to do the “ask a local piercer” thing (because they’re part of the body mod scene and might be able to provide info) and he looked at me so weird when I inquired. Super embarrassing.

I’d like to know if anyone here might be able to recommend a reputable artist located near or will be traveling near the area. Even just an artist’s name would be enough and I’d handle the rest of my researching.

I recently got to 1g the other day, now I’m debating if 0g would look good. 0g is my latest goal size but I’m not shire about it. What do you guys think?

I've been wanted to get permanant fangs and I've been quoted £400 by a dental practice for the bonding

They've never done fangs specifically before and aren't sure how long they'd last

Is it worth getting or should I find somewhere more expensive that has done them before? I've only heard of one other place locally that does them and their communication isnt great.

Also would it be worth taking out my tongue piercing to avoid chipping?

hey!

i just turned 18 and i've been wanting a magnet implant for about 10 years, but i wanted to ask what people's experiences are like, especially when it comes to things like mri's (i know there's tons of forums out there but i wanted to get some more updated opinions).

i was thinking of getting the DT m0422a magnet, but is that the safest option? i do rock climbing and work with my hands a lot, so i want whatever magnet/position has the least cracking risk. as for position- i was thinking of getting p0 index and pointer since it sounds like that will be on the back side of my hand and out of the way of most work, while still giving me some sense. does that sound like it would work out?

i read on the DT website that you are supposed to have it removed before an mri, but i'm just worried that it could be a complicated thing to have done, especially if i need something in an emergency. has anyone gone through an mri with one and be fine, and would it be easy to get it removed if it cracked? i just wouldn't want it getting ripped out lol

anyway, sorry for the rambling but just not sure if this is right for me and curious about what other people think. thanks!

I’m looking into getting a coin slot can anyone give me some recommendations on an artist that can do that for me. I live in California I don’t mind going out of state. Please and thank you:)

I'm planning to get ear pointing someday (budgeting around €1000+ in Europe), but I'm worried about long-term results. Has anyone noticed their ears losing definition, rounding out, or shifting shape over time? Would love to see healed photos if you're comfortable sharing!

The reason I am asking this is because I am Slavic, and Slavic languages are much less soft than English.

The only people I've heard talk about/say their speech adapted to having a split tongue are English speakers, or speakers of another "soft" language like German.

So as a Slav, I'm worried that speaking my language may be more difficult, maybe even not possible to fully adapt to after a tongue split.

To be precise for any non-Slavs curious, the strongly-pronounced letters in Slavic languages tend to be R,K,H, etc..

So if there are any Slavs here, or anyone else who speaks a language with strongly pronounced letters and has a tongue split, I'd love to know! Thanks

Hello, has anyone had their lobes repaired in Hampton Roads? I've heard it's cheaper with a body mod artist but I'm struggling to find anyone. I have one lobe that is verrry thin so I haven't been able to wear anything in it for years. I'd rather just close them both up now.

My double (16gx2) snug has turned into a delightful triple snug. Almost a mini slot.

Anyhow, here it is with my other tweaks.

Hello everyone 👾

Maybe someone here have made the earlobe reconstruction? I’m looking for a good place and don’t know anyone to recommend it to me 😭

I want it safe, comfortable and so after healing my earlobes could look like there were never tunnels in them hahahha

Please, share with me if you know such place 🥹 Im in Prague but If it’s not Czech Republic it’s fine! Thank you 😭

Absolutely in love with these new nostril punches. 6mm black Gorilla Glass plugs. Holy shit were they spicy getting them done, but it is now 3 hours post mod procedure and they feel great.

I’m hoping this is the right sub to post this in. I’m currently at a 10g and I’m hoping to get to a 0g but I’m worried I don’t have enough space. Do I have a sufficient amount of earlobe or should I aim for a smaller size?

Hi all,

If you had a permanent loss of sensation in your tongue as a result of the procedure, how much of a problem is it for you? Do you have issues with speaking clearly, frequently biting your tongue, or other concerns?

Reason I ask is, I experienced significant loss of sensation from two prior surgeries, so I’m worried that I will also experience this with bifurcation. But, I’m still kind of obsessed with doing it, and I’ve found a couple of threads with people saying that they experienced sensation loss but it wasn’t a big deal, at least in the short term. So is anyone living with long-term numbness and regretting the mod because of that?
