If the piercer hits a vein (this would be due to an error on the piercers part, lack of attention to what he/she is doing) the piercing will seep blood. This is not a good thing but much better than the piercer hitting and artery which will pump blood with little sign of it stopping. This generally require a trip to the hospital to have the piercing cauterized to stop the bleeding. So before you run into issues find a good professional piercer and do your research!!

Can you bleed to death from a tongue piercing?

Actually yes you can. Some people have a third vein running down the middle of their tongue and when one gets a tongue piercing it is done in the middle of the tongue. So when the needle pierces it it will bleed more than tongues w/o that third vein would. But you can still get a tongue piercing if you have that 3rd vein. All professional piercers know how to control bleeding. It's in their training
