I recently got my tongue pierced and have been looking around the internet for tongue bar designs. I've also been looking for nose studs and navel bars (i have all 3 pierced) but wondered if anyone had any recommendations on websites / shops? :)

Most tattoo and piercing shops have a really good stock of different ones, or at least in my city they do.

Honestly, I'd go back to the studio where you got it done, especially for your tongue.
Any time I've tried to buy tongue bars online, they're too long or just don't "feel right", I like to be able to examine it in person, and the person who pierced it will probably be able to give you a good recommendation of bar length and stuff.

Same goes for the others, the quality's always immensely better and they're just... nicer, although you'll likely pay more, it's definitely worth it, especially if you have metal allergies.

You can get perfectly good quality ones online actually, both me and my sister have used http://www.bodyjewelleryshop.com/ if we've ordered online and they've been great with orders AND whatever we've ordered has stood the test of time.

i've used this website before too, and it's perfectly fine but i find buying studs/bars online really risky. i think you need to go into a shop, see the quality of the product and stuff. especially as piercings are such a breeding ground for infection, you wanna make sure yr getting top stuff.

Go back to your piercing place, they should have some.

I suggest jewelry shops. That would be the best at least your pierced area won't get infected. I had mine twice and it's gross.

http://www.bodyjewelleryshop.com/ are reasonably priced, used them a few times. Also http://extreme-body-jewellery.co.uk/index.php.

Plus, there is always cheap body jewellery on Ebay.
