After 2 years of longing, I finally just went for it. I done a whole lot of research on BME Zine about septums and looked at a bunch of pictures. Many of the experiences I had read detailed a “horrific pain”, while others thought it wasn’t so bad. Lying on the piercing table, I definately thought I would be in the “OMG AHHH PAIN!” category, but I was pleasantly surprised. The needle went through smoothly and quickly, with hardly any pain whatsoever. On a scale of 1-10, the pain was a 2, although my eyes did water really badly.

Overall, it was a good experience, and I love my new piercing ^__
