Go to a piercer ask their opinion.
Tongue piercing.. tongue length...?
I have a "short" tongue too! haha. And I have my tongue pierced. I had it pierced a little further back then normal because I am a woodwind/ brass musician, and obviously need my tongue to play and couldn't have it interfering with that.





But a piercer will be able to tell you for sure. It also goes by the veins underneath your tongue- if they are large and "spider webbish" you might not be able to get it. I have that issue too, and couldn't get the Venom, which I really wanted- but was able to get just a single traditional tongue piercing.





Good Luck!
Reply:It doesn't matter how long your tongue is.


Since yours is shorter, the piercer might have to pierce it slightly off center but it will still look really good.


It just depends on where the tongue web falls under your tongue.


But you can still get a tongue piercing if you want.
