I would say 6 months to be on the safe side. And if you want to change it after about 4 or so months, then have the other ring ready and switch it quickly. I've had mine for about 5 years, and now I can keep it out for weeks and it still doesn't close.

How long before a new tongue piercing closes?

It doesn't take long before a new tongue pierce hole closes because when you open and close your mouth your hole in you tongue just gets used to having nothing in it so i would say about 24 hours before it closes.


How long it takes 4 a tongue ring hole two close?

I had my tongue pierced twice.. once for 1 year and took it out for about a year and got it repierced about a year laer and my holes never closed up completely because i just reopened it myself and it has been almost two years...So i guess it depends on the person because my friends's closed after two weeks.


How long does it take for a six year old tongue piercing to close?

Well, its really hard to say because everyone's body will react differently, and it depends on how your body heals. A tongue piercing is considered an open wound right up until you let it close. After five years mine is still considered that. I have had mine for about five years now and I'm so used to it that when i take it out, i forget. I have gone a little over two weeks with it out and it didn't close or get smaller. I had a tongue ring for close to four years and it took a couple days at most. I don't think it actually matters how long it's been once it has been more than a year or two.


How long will you have a lisp after getting your tongue pierced?

You'll have a lisp whilst the tongue is healing, when the swollen has gone down you should be fine, however, some peoples lisps stay after getting their tongue pierced, my sister is. I'm going through this step at the moment i have a lisp and cant speak or anything

How long do I have to keep a tongue piercing in before you can take it out to hide it from my parents?

I took mine out about a week in and replaced it with a clear bar, but they tell you you should wait a minimum of 2 wks before you remove the original bar. You can't keep the bar out or the hole will close. It's only a matter of minutes before it will close so I don't advise you to take it out and keep it out. Just replace it with a tongue retainer. You can google them. Also, it doesn't matter how long you've had the piercing, your tongue heals quickly and the hole will close. I know someone who had their tongue piercing for 10 yrs but when she took her tongue ring out it only took about half an hour before the hole started closing.
