    None about the piercing itself, no? As I'm sure you know, when it comes to the tongue, there are millions.

    I've been hearing horror stories about metalmorphosis

    My sister in law got her belly button pierced there about 2 weeks ago. She's had no problems. She actually said that the staff were really good at putting her at ease(she hates needles).

    On the other hand I have also heard that celestial ring in the stephens green centre is very good.

    Good luck with the tongue ring, LS. I got my tongue pierced a year ago and have never regretted it.

    The piercing itself is painless but the days after are uncomfortable while trying to eat, its nothing too bad at all.

    I recommend The Celestial Ring. People who work there are so nice. I got all my stuff done in there, tattoos and piercings.
    Very clean, very friendly and helpful

    I've gotten most of my piercings (if not all?) done in Metal Morphosis. They dont seem to be as compassionate about it than other piercing places.

    From now on though I'd choose Celestial Ring (value, great aftercare, and good folk) or Bodyshock (reliable, confident, and the girl behing the counter is hot!)
