Septum Piercing

                   Beautiful, and one of my favourites. Increasingly popular among alternative fashions, the septum piercing is super cute! This piercing is named after the thin wall of cartilage separating the right and left nostril called the septum. The piercing does not go through the cartilage but usually through the tissue slightly below the septum. Pain varies with every one, but you are sure to tear up, this doesn't mean your crying, it is a natural response when your nose is hit or pierced. Down sides to this piercing is that your nose is not necessarily the cleanest place, if you have allergies during a certain season, I suggest you avoid getting the piercing then, the healing process is also some what slow, due to where it is. One great advantage of the septum piercing is that with certain jewelry, usually an open circular bar bell, it is very easy to hide by simply flipping it, to let it rest in the nose. There are many options to how you want your piercing to look, it can be small and cute, or big and in-your-face looking. I want, and love this piercing .
