Should or not: Septum piercing

Yes, I am thinking about getting one but if there's anyone who has done one before or knows more about it.

I have a couple of friends with piercings on different places on their faces, others being on the nostril, ear or even on the eyebrows. I haven't heard them ever talk about their experience but I might try ask. Despite this fact I am informed about the healing process.

To be more specific I am looking for a clicker (not necessarily though) septum piercing, not too big, just small enough to "hug" the front septum. As you may understand I don't want it to hang off my nose.

So what's your opinion of them, suggestions etc.?

 

Quite informative.

Thanks for letting me know about your opinion.

Potatoes.

Of course it's all about my choice. I am never getting affected by others' opinion (of course not talking about constructivism as it's always needed). Yes they can be taken off at any time either because they are clickers or taken out by a professional. And again I know a professional to whom my younger girl cousin got her ear pierced.
No, I am not piercing my cartilage. Please check this:

A traditionally placed septum piercing is not in the cartilage that divides the nostrils. Instead it rests in a sweet spot (a location optimal for piercing) in the soft, membranous tissue just below the cartilage but above the skin. On most individuals this will be well up into the nose, toward the tip. The traditional placement passes through minimal tissue; in fact, it is some of the thinnest skin that is pierced on a human body. The piercing should be positioned in this location for comfort (both during the procedure and for the wearing of jewelry), ease of healing, and optimal concealment.

TL;DR: If I ever get to pierce it I will have it be through that "sweet spot" and not the cartilage. Some people may not have that sweet spot resulting to a "through the cartilage piercing". Glad to have a sweet spot.

Of course I am going to choose the closest to what I like to wear during the healing process and later buy a new one that I like to have as an alternative.

Again, thanks for your opinion.

Your quality on your job is defined by your work not your appearance. If it's very necessary I could always take it out (well some types can be taken out) or flip it the other way.

Thanks, you could just simply give an opinion as always.

Good to know.

Never heard this before; will sure do a research on that. Thanks for letting me know.

I will re-paste this for you:

Yes, fully agreed.

Good to know. I always think both sides.

 

Okay.

 

Good to know your opinions of them. To be honest I mostly imagined it as a "seeking for information, experiences and suggestions" thread over an opinion thread.

 

Sure.
