My first tongue split healed up clean, feelin' good about it

I did my tongue split about 6 weeks ago with a friend in her kitchen. Read online that it's too risky for DIY but we followed a guide from a mod forum step by step. Was scared it'd heal crooked but it's straight and I can actually move both sides separate now. Haven't had anyone notice yet in public and lowkey wondering if I should be more open about it. Anyone else do a tongue split and have trouble eating certain foods after it healed?

Most things in life are like that, people online always scream about worst case scenarios but in reality a lot of DIY stuff works out fine, kinda like how half the stuff you worry about never actually happens. Your mileage may vary though, some people get real unlucky.

Used to think DIY body mods were reckless but this actually changed my mind.

5 weeks in and sushi rolls are my enemy now, keep getting rice stuck in the gap and having to fish it out with my tongue. Totally worth it though, pizza and burgers taste way more intense with the extra surface area.
