DIY Septum Piercing

[BrokenLyriicX]

Did you pierce cartillage?

[amiraye]

@BrokenLyriicX No. There's a spot where it's just flesh. It just takes finding it. Usually if you sorta pull down the septum you can feel the "sweet spot". Not everybody has one though.

Ugh, I tried to pierce my own but it didn't work for some reason. I had a 16 gauge needle, gloves and a piercing. I got the needle in, but I could't get the piercing in. :(

[amiraye]

@KawaiiPandaPen Awwww. That's part of the reason I went with the 14. 

[KawaiiPandaPen]

@amiraye Oh, okay I see that's very smart! I might try to do that tonight. Thank you!

[amiraye]

@KawaiiPandaPen Yeah. If you do the 14 there really shouldn't be any reason that a 16 couldn't go in. =] Good luck!

Also, what size gauge were your ring and needle? Because I keep hearing if you have like a 16g ring, that you should pierce it with a 14g needle, but that doesnt make any sense to me...

[amiraye]

@ItsNicolebaybie2011 Some people uses a gauge larger than their jewelry to make the transfer easier. I used a 14 gauge needle as well as jewelry,

[ItsNicolebaybie2011]

Did it get infected at any point?

[amiraye]

@ItsNicolebaybie2011 It was probably my easiest to keep from infection actually. Worst I had was a runny nose and it got pretty dry but other than that it never got infected.

A lot better done than most of the teenage girls on here with un-gloved hands and safety pins.

[voldemortlovesyou]

how big is the needle in mm ?

[amiraye]

@voldemortlovesyou It's about 2 mm.

[oliviasmom92]

Damn..you didn't even blink it looked like lol. How did it go so smoothly?

[amiraye]

@oliviasmom92 I've done all of my own piercings except the first ones in my lobes which are now stretched to an inch. It's never been a big deal to me. =]

[oliviasmom92]

@amiraye

I have all the stuff to do my own septum when I wanted to do it myself but I'm too scared to lol. Major props, girls. XD

Cleanest and quickest DIY that I've seen up here.

[amiraye]

@kelpieandbigwill Thank you. I am working towards becoming a professional piercer. I do my best. =]

[greenyKIZ]

this is too dangerous. nobody should do it his oder herself.

what are special piercers for?

[amiraye]

@greenyKIZ It's not dangerous if you know what you're doing which i do.

[silvana12988]

so pretty much just wait cuz when i got it after 3 weeks i was messing with it n fell out so i ended up puting it back in almpost fainted lmfao lol so i guess just wait till 3 mnth over is a 14 G TO SMALL

[amiraye]

@silvana12988 no a 14 gauge is standard size.

[silvana12988]

seem like ur good question when can i change my cheek piercing i had it for 4 weeks

[amiraye]

@silvana12988 When I had mine I waited 8 weeks the first time then 16 weeks the second time. It all depends on your body really though. My best advice for general would to be to wait half of the healing time which is about 6 months (3 months to change.) The biggest thing is that you're confident enough to change them. Cause it can be tricky.

[gh312345]

what size are your ears?

[amiraye]

@gh312345

they were an inch i took them out shortly before i posted this video.

[sora1axel1lovr]

@amiraye now why on earth would you do that? stretched ears are magnificent :P

[amiraye]

@sora1axel1lovr

I had a blow out in my left ear and it was extremely painful. I may stretch again but much slower.
