What kind of tattoos/piercings do you have? I need a confidence boost in getting a septum piercing!
This isn't my first rodeo. I have a helix ring, my second set of lobe studs, and my nipples pierced (tmi? oops).
But this would be my first facial piercing. I love the look of this septum piercing. Being flip-up-able for easy hiding is a bonus.
However, like most people who get face piercings, I've faced a lot of backlash from people in my life. My mother, who is absolutely amazing, hates them. However, it's her personal belief that it isn't her place to say no (how did I get so lucky?). I really value her opinion and she's warned me that quite a bit of the family will be put off.
As well, some of my friends think they're weird or gross. A lot of guys have told me they hate them. That I won't find a relationship because no one likes them.
Usually I stand up so well to peer pressure but I have to admit, I'm cracking a bit. I'm in my second year of university, so I know this is the best time to get it - plenty of time to enjoy it in case a future job requires me to remove it. What do you guys think?
