@ Asha I had my vertical labret done and I kept it in for 4 days. It was so annoying to say my favorite word FUCK...the damn piercing kept flicking against my teeth. It was an interesting feeling. If you've already done your septum then this shouldn't be too bad.

@ Dorian - The septum was def one of my more painful piercings. My eyes watered but it's my favorite now! I love how I can flip up the ring if I want.

I got my septum. Didn't hurt at all. just teared up, but that's natural reflex what with sinus and all.

@dorian I got my septum...like red rebel said if you go to a piercer that pierces in the soft spot (called the sweet spot) it will not hurt any more than getting your lobes. Your eyes will water but i just think that is a natural instinct.
RED REBEL Comment by RED REBEL on November 29, 2009 at 7:52pm
@dorian: my partner had it done and he said it didnt really hurt. he, and most people, have a soft spot. if you place your index and pointer fingers just inside your nose, about a quarter inch you'll feel it. that's where they pierce and it made him tear up, but he felt no pain. granted this is a second hand account... @W.F.: i am a firm believer in tapers! love the d.i.y. feel good factor too :) i use gloves and some type of water based lubrication. when i started out i used ice to numb, but i don't even bother with it anymore. hope this info helps you both...peace

anyone with tapers have advice on doing your own.

Hey sexies. Does the septum inflict as much pain as I've heard? any advice?
Asha Barbie Comment by Asha Barbie on November 28, 2009 at 10:42pm
i really really REALLY want my vertical labret piercing but im so scared to get it done! i already have my septum, my navel, my tongue (although it is coming out soon) and 6 in my ears. Im just wondering if anyone has this and if it is a good piercing or does it become a nuisance. Thankie

Yo everyone, just joined the site, mad excited to be here. Two tatts, one on my inner wrist, the other a big tribal piece on my back. Going in to the shop tomorrow to talk about my next bit of ink! Adinkra symbols, fractals, and geometric patterns are what I'm interested in, and I'd love suggestions.

thanks dudes.
im so ready to start my sleeve. i really want to keep the mathematical elements going and add in some other loves. like i want a HUGE space ship with all kinds of distorted geometric shaped planets around it.and then i want to get a matrix wrapped round my elbow and SOMEHOW encorporate euler's identity(if you dont know what that s look it up! coolest thing ever) and the periodic table.lol
