To septum, or not to septum...

Really tempted to get my septum done. What do you guys think?

Bit worried I'll look a complete doofus...

OMG! To septum! I say do it. It's easy to hide (if you need/want to), and mine was a super easy healer. I've had mine for a while now and I don't regret it one bit.

Re: To septum, or not to septum...

I'm loving it so far. I had a septum keeper put in so I could 'flip-up' to hide it but now I'm wishing I had proper jewellery put in! Not sure how long until I can take it out and try new jewellery.

I am pleased I had it done :)

Re: To septum, or not to septum...

i've been really tempted by septums recently. i never used to like them. i don't think it'd suit my face, though.

throw up some pics, dude.

Congrats on getting it done! :) Bit of advice: don't flip it up and down during the healing time; pick one position and keep it there 'til it's healed. Flipping it up or down a couple times won't kill you but don't make a regular thing out of it.

Your piercing should be healed enough for a jewelry change in about 8 weeks.

I have 1/2" lobes and 11 piercings: left helix x2, both conches, both nostrils, septum, navel, and VCH.
My lobes are small but I know a lot about stretching and how to do it safely, so message me if you have any questions!
