I have had my septum peirced for about 3 months, it was peirced at 14 guage. I was wondering if anyone has had expeirence in stretching their septums. I tried but it hurt too much becuase it's different from strecthing your ears lobes, which is the only experience i have in stretching. anyway if anyone would be able to help me out that would be great. i would like to stretch it up to 10. and i am not willing to get a dermal punch... its too scary for me.
I got mine pierced at a 14 aswell a couple years back and I stretched it to a 12 a couple months later and then a 10 then after that an 8 but I changed it back to the 10 because the diameter on the hoop was to big for my face. I plan on stretching it to an 8 again soon, might even go to a 6 we'll see... I didn't find it that painful, well I guess if you stretch it to quick it feels like getting pierced again but I love that feeling so I don't complain. Suck it up Trust me you'll have no regrets. I can't stand anything smaller than a 12 for septums now it just looks lame. To thin I think.
My ex has a 0 in his septum...i remeber that it hurt like hell and took a while to get it there...just keep slowely getting bigger and bigger.
I'm planning to get my septum pierced soon (probably at 12ga) and in future I will stretch it to 8ga. what do you think about seamless septum rings (without bead, just a continuous circle)?
i have a bull ring or horse shoe, whatever you call it, it's small, well 14 guage. so enviormental_junkie, did you use a taper to stretch it, or did you just punch it through? should i do it in the shower, becuase i know that's the easiest time for your ears. i just wnat it at a 10 and that will be big enough for me. i mean if i can't stretch it, it'll be okay, but it would be wayy cooler!
i agree well, atleast thats my plan. im sticking with the natural 14g i cant remember what its called, but after the septum is stretched enough, you can actually pierce the bottom of it, up into the old hole.
haha, thats ok, it happens to the best of us just dont let it happen again! and this is what i was talking about. its called a jungle
haha don't mind my carny eyes, it wouldn't look so wierd if you could see the whole picture but ANYWAYS! that is a septum pericing, the cartiledge between your nostrils. it hurt but i love it.
hey guys, im new here. but i can help you! i currently have a 0g septum. i pierced it myself at a 14g, and slowly tapered upwards.
