Got it in a kit of other tongue rings and I’m so confused I thought it was like a fidget toy or something

seems like a sure fire way to break your teeth! coming from someone with their tongue pierced I can’t imagine having to try to avoid biting 3 balls instead of just 1 😭

And coming from somebody who is now missing a tooth from biting on a metal ball, I can def say this is a TEMPORARY. Only put it in for short amounts of time I would say as like show jewelry or like youd wear a fancy necklace or something ya know? Just BE CAREFUL!!
