Question: How old do you have to be to get your tongue pierced?

Answer: According to Arizona Law (A.R.S. § 13-3721) it is a class 6 felony for anyone to pierce any part of anyone's body if they are under 18 without their parents present (the only exception are your ears). So you can get your tongue pierced if you are under 18 only if your parents come along (a note is not good enough).

I really don't have a problem with piercings. I know that it's not my decision, but I'm not with the toung piercings. Well it's your body. I wouldn't go too far thougn. I was watching t.v. and this one guy (he was punk) was getting his TOUNG SPLIT IN HALF!! He wanted it to look like a snake's toung. He didn't have anything to numb it either. He said that it hurt bad, but it was worth it. There was so much blood in his mouth it was crazy. The guy who did it for him simply took a little knife and started to CUT IT IN HALF. How does he eat?! DON'T GET YOUR TOUNG CUT IN HALF PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
