Septum Piercing: A Guide to Styling and Choosing Jewelry

If you're considering getting a septum piercing or already have one, you might be wondering about the different types of jewelry available. While the classic horseshoe is a popular choice, there are many other options that can add a unique touch to your look. In this article, we'll go over some of the pros and cons of a septum piercing, as well as some of our favorite jewelry styles at Lulu's.

Pros:

• A septum piercing can be a beautiful and eye-catching addition to your look, with a variety of jewelry options available.
• You have the option to hide the piercing if needed - for example, if your job doesn't allow visible piercings or you want to keep it hidden from your parents. Simply tuck the horseshoe into your nose to conceal it.
• The pain level of a septum piercing is generally considered to be low, around a 2 on a scale of 1 to 10. Most people report that the clamping process is the most painful part.
• This piercing is relatively easy to heal, as long as you take good care of it and avoid touching or flipping it up too much in the first few months.

Cons:

• It's important to avoid touching or flipping up the jewelry during the healing process to prevent irritation.
• The septum area can become dry, so it's a good idea to use lotion or Neosporin to help keep it moisturized.
• As with any piercing, it's important to avoid exposing it to water (such as in pools or oceans) to prevent irritation or infection.
