I cut off part of the tongue to improve my kissing skills – I’m better now than I’ve ever been in my life
One influencer described in detail how she cut out part of her tongue to improve her kissing skills.
Rochelle Garrett, who has nearly half a million followers on Instagram, better known as Xehli G (@xehli), recently opened up about how muscle has affected her life.
The 22-year-old, who is believed to be from Brazil, had her lingual frenulum (the tissue that connects the tongue to the bottom of the mouth) cut, as it was too short, which could cause problems with eating and chewing.
But the social media personality claimed it also affected her confidence because she struggled with flirting and couldn’t enjoy being kissed.
Since having her lingual frenulum removed, Rochelle said she’s never felt better and can finally enjoy hugging with others.

“(Until I had the surgery), I felt like I had never kissed anyone,” she said. It’s a really unique feeling. It was (the kiss) so much better than any other kiss I’ve ever given in my life.
And now my tongue seems to be loose when kissing – before it was blocked. Everyone who’s ever kissed me must have thought I didn’t know what I was doing.
The creator previously shared that she was bullied for the way she spoke and received harsh comments from trolls online, which also inspired her to get tongue surgery.
Rochelle admitted: ‘I was bullied when I was younger because my speech was so serious.

I should have had this surgery when I was young, even the pediatrician recommended it, but my mother felt sorry for me at the time, because of the pain.
“When I was growing up, I was afraid to do it and that’s why it took me so many years.”
Rochelle documented her journey on social media while undergoing the painful procedure, with one clip garnering more than 46,000 likes.
