You’ll probably see these uploaded again after I add my watermark and all that, but I was really excited about how this tongue came out. This is after we freshly downsized it , about three weeks from the initial Piercing date. It’s looking beautiful.
Pierced freehand with a slightly modified needle, using a 5mm super low profile black cubic zirconia gem bead, 12 3/4 barbel, and. 6mm m&m on the bottom.
Downsized to a 9/16 barbel.
You’ll notice I rarely get photos of tongues. The reason why is they typically swell pretty quickly during the initial procedure, and with the technique that I use for them little bit of bleeding is pretty common, and I very rarely upload piercings that have blood in them.
(most of the work I do rarely bleeds, though there’s a few explanations- like tongues or surface piercings. And tongues typically bleed because of the technique I use.  For the Piercers who are curious about the technique- if I’m not using a Kiwami or katana needle, I am modifying my needle, hence slight bleeding. IYKYK)
Can you tell I’m passionate about Piercing? I can nerd out all freaking day. My clients definitely know this. 😂
