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).

well, i have just turned 14 and i have had my tounge pierced for my 14th birthday and it didn't hurt 1 bit. After it was pierced for about 1t minutes it hurt and was a bit sore, but that passed. and now it looks great, i can't eat solid foods though and i can't talk properly.
