[@Violencejunkie]

Lmaoo me rn

[@DattRadditat]

I just want to say for those who find this video and have not gotten their piercings yet. 1.) You should always receive a full explanation before and after getting your piercing. 2.) The shop should be clean and customer service should be attentive and follow procedures. 3.) I would recommend flipping the piercing upward to heal for the first 3 weeks of having it. 4.) whomever does your piercings should NOT use a gun. All piercing equipment should be opened while you are there and NOT PREUSED OR ALREADY OPENED. And they should sterilized. whomever does your piercing should give good attention to where his marks are placed and should change gloves when appropriate. 5.) IF YOU ARE UNCOMFORTABLE, UNSATISFIED, OR UNSURE WITH THE SHOP YOU'VE CHOSEN, DO NOT GET YOUR PIERCING THERE. This shit ain't no game y'all lol I got mine done yesterday. great man, good piercing, and great environment. I will be going back to get the jewelry changed once I'm healed and so excited! but I'm no expert so make sure to look up information on it!

[@HomemakerDaze]

Yes! People keep going to the cheap places and I’m like fuck that. I have my usual though pretty expensive piercer I go too and I’m so glad I found them. She is very experienced and helpful. Before her none of my piercings healed well and I took most out. I have the best jewellery and placement now which makes a huge difference to healing.

[@mossy1476]

Exactly this!!! I went to a bad piercing shop when I got my first (conch) he bend the ring when it was already in my ear and bend it back while still in my ear. Hurt like hell. And didnt tell me till i got problems with my piercing and went back. I just went there cus my sister had gone there a few years before to get a helix. Worst decision. Had problems with it for 2 years (partially also my fault for not caring well but it also didnt have a good start) and finally decided to take it out and let it full heal a couple days ago. Already looks a lot better than it has in months

[@sophiaeverett9288]

flipping it up while it’s first healing isn’t good

[@screamxaimfire]

I agree with everything except flipping it up to heal. It won't heal right if you do that.

[@chloea9634]

@@screamxaimfire it will heal fine. The only thing is that afterwards it will tend to always try to be flipped

[@SavageHeartXO]

Your aftercare was very clear, easy to understand and follow. Thank you very much. Very informative.

[@criskai04]

The salt water cleanse feels so good... I had a huge bag on NeilMed saline packets for nasal rinsed and my piercer said that was perfect. My septum piercing feels so much better after I soak it.

[@Scythe.502]

Game: dip your septum in salt water every time he says “okay.”

[@JoeSki253]

Or “alright”

[@inkstainedwrists]

It seems like everyone says different things. My piercer said to avoid all saline water and salt soaks. Only water and anti bacterial soap 1 time a day at the end of my shower. It’s what I’ve used with my other piercings and I’ve had no problems. No crusties and minimal soreness. He said piercings that use saline/salt soaks/tree oil take much longer to heal. And he’s a very reputable piercer. His studio has won multiple awards for being the best piercing studio in Houston.

[@daivelylopez7062]

THANK YOU

[@shelbypimentel804]

my piercer also said not to do saline or salt water soaks, but I'm scared that I'm not cleaning it enough :/

how to use antibacterial soap and water? like just wash ur face like one does or soak the piercing in the antibacterial soap solution?

Same got mine today and they said the same

[@BriannaGuthrie286]

just asking because this is my only concern using soap, does it not burn the piercing?

[@Red-xe2tl]

i respect this guy so much oml he said "from the parents" man knows what's up 😂😂😂 he just wants people that are gonna pierce themselves to be safe lol thanks dude

[@nora-4933]

what i learned: - DON’T touch it and if you must, make sure your hands are super clean. - salt-water soak at least once a day. use non-iodine salt and distilled water to do this. put four teaspoons of salt into a gallon of the water and this will be the solution you’ll use. pour a small amount into a cup and microwave it for a few seconds until it’s lukewarm. put your nose into and soak for about 7-15 minutes. pat it off or rinse it. - no other products should touch your piercing besides either saltwater or a cleaning solution!

Miffy - mine hurts sometimes. But for the most part i'm there with ya on that. I got mine 2 days ago now. The first night i went to bed with it i flipped it up and it hurt.

Yes its normal if it hurts its pierced in the wrong spot its suppose to go in the "sweet spot" like yours and if it hurts really bad afterwards its something wrong they should check for infection. Yours is normal and healthy.

Gotta admit, my jewelry moved around like crazy. About every 2 hours or so I had to straighten it (the horseshoe would rotate completely). Even now, 2 months later, it still does it. It doesn't bother me but it was occasionally painful when I tried to straighten it and it had crusties on it that I wasn't aware of. I'm about to change it for the first time tomorrow.

Doing that could get cotton stuck in the piercing/in the blood though, and it could increase the risk of infection. :/

[@no-ul2mg]

@@Cardiax can i use a rag? like a rag that is smooth, that won't get caught on the septum

[@Cardiax]

@@no-ul2mg Like a microfiber cloth? I wouldn't ask someone like me for advice on this. I'm not a piercer, just a CNA in training who loves body modification. That being said, a rag might work, as long as the fibers in it are very, VERY tiny. You'd want to reduce the amount of damage to the injury while it heals so the smoother the item used to clean it, the better. You'll want to avoid the risk of snagging anything on the scabs and bits of jewelry and any jagged, uneven skin. If you use a cloth, be sure to wash it thoroughly after every use, using a fragrance-free soap. (I forgot about this "rule," and I realized that my nose started to get really painfully irritated when I started using a soap with fragrance in it. After I switched back to a fragrance-free face wash, the irritation went away.) I'd suggest washing it by hand as well, as machine washing can damage fibers a lot quicker. For my own piercing, what has worked for me is just not using any third-party items. I just use my own fingers. lol Since my nostrils are really small though, I can only really use my pinky fingertips. PS: I love your username. lol

@@no-ul2mg I just got mine done 3 days ago and I was told just use a qtip and dip that in saline solution that you get from the drugs store, it's been doing really well thus far- dont need to "soak" it, just clean it and get the crusties off, reposition and leave it until the next cleaning- just be gentle. Also was told don't flip it up if I don't have to- and I don't so I'm not going to until it's all healed. I don't really have many crusties, not like the first day.

I got my septum done a few days ago and I was so worried. I searched for videos, and this was the only one that was actually helpful.

[@scribbles9495]

Man, I'm so happy I decided to look up proper aftercare, my piercer told me to use dial antibacterial soap and zero-alcohol listerine and I knew that didn't seem right.

[@its_agxny666]

My piercer gave me this bottle of spray by a company called “Neil med” it’s specifically for piercing aftercare, she told me it was safe for my snakebites and my septum

[@louisefouquerel-skoe2070]

that's what I got too I think that its just saltwater spray

[@MakeupBySoniaa]

I've had my septum pierced for about a month now and I just went to get it changed to a smaller circular barbell. I have a bump on the left side and I've been doing salt soaks and when I don't have time I swab it really well with the solution. I started using tea tree oil to help because people told me it would. How long will it take to go away? I can't wear it at school and it is slightly painful to flip up on the one side. Do you have any advice to get rid of the piercing bump?

[@ryansmith8574]

following for future advice lol im thinking about getting mine done lol i can afford it, its deciding whether i want to afford it haha

[@huntressaddict]

for the future (if you haven't already done the piercing), don't use tea tree oil or oil at all with bumps. it doesn't help, irritation bumps will dry up and fall off on their own @@ryansmith8574

[@persephonescharmvlog5842]

so... no soap? just salt water soak?

[@Bluejay8633]

I’ve had my septum pierced for like 3-4 days now and my piercer told me to use neosporin and saline solution, I’ve also had a strong itching sensation for the past two nights but it only comes in at night and doesnt last all night. Any suggestions or corrections for this?

[@carb_8781]

honestly, i've gotten the itch with all of my piercings. when it's healed it will go away.

[@hossv1147]

Cool simple and straight forward. Just got it pierced. Pretty damn happy I finally did it.

[@bassaddict8984]

Get mine done in a month. Thanks for all the advice 👍🏻

[@isabellamontez3546]

It’s a good thing I saw this video as soon as I came home 😅

[@okcurrr5573]

My piercer accidentally went through a small bit of cartilage, I hope it heals like normal🤞

[@bitchesgonbebitchesluvthemhoes]

Dude so did mine! Shit hurt so bad

[@maaikequest3760]

Mine is right next to my cartilage, I can feel it rubbing against it sometimes, so freaky.

[@belladelgado1829]

Mine rubs as well, it should be fine might just take extra time to heal. Piercers normally aim for the “sweet spot” but sometimes don’t hit it

[@EdnaBlossoms310]

Maaike Quest I think mine is right below also, idk if I should get it re pierced or wait 😫

[@okcurrr5573]

Edna mine healed and honestly it’s fine it’s not sore and it doesn’t cause me any problems so as long as you take care of it it’ll be fine:)

[@celestialturtle6665]

Thank you! I’m getting mine done tomorrow so I appreciate the straight forward directions:)

[@JinxRebel69]

i got my septum pierced 8/14, and the place is really well known for being the best piercing place in my area. the guy told me that i didnt need to do anything other than get rid of any gunk on it. i asked about salt water soaks, and he told me that the salt would just dry out my mucus membranes and not to use it. but everywhere ive read on the internet says to do them. i havent had any problems other than soreness, though i have been cleaning it with water. any advice about soaking vs not soaking?

[@GabrielaGonzalez-ec2le]

I just got my septum done two days ago, and they told me to use neosporin! Which I have been, twice a day. Thank you for the information! Also, how can I tell if they did it too low? I feel like the piercing was done too low, but IDK really. I'd appropriate it if you respond. Thank you again!!

[@djlarryb68]

Thanks for the video! I’m going to have to keep mine hid at work. I was going to get it pierced yesterday but wasn’t sure. Came back to KZbin and got reassured that I can prolly do this. Thanks!

Did u hid it right after u got it ?

I need help asap!!! Getting my septum pierced next week, I cannot have it visible for school so I have to leave it flipped up whilst it heals-is this okay? PLEASE ANSWER ME SOMEBODY

[@138josefina]

Young Baddie get it and flip it up, till it heals.

[@michellebeaudreau2113]

Yes but keep it up then don’t keep flipping it

[@uncanny8279]

I use the H20cean after care spray. But once that runs out I'll try your method for sure.

[@emilycerny4631]

Got mine done 2 weeks ago and its crusting. I try to move it to clean it and its painful and hard to do so. When i get it to rotate there is crusting on it. Is it infected or is this normal?

[@ladylyssa5130]

I think that's normal. I just removed all the crust, then cleaned it regularly.

[@izamaryramirez3121]

It's normal if it's crusty. Run some warm water over your nose and the piercing so that the crust can get off.

[@emilycerny4631]

thanks guys! The crusting finally stopped!

[@jenniferbonilla8373]

The crust is most likely a scab and thats normal well...it doesnr matter now lol but its part of the healing process so it hurt cause you were tearing the scab away, which it could get it infected

[@AmayahBeauty18]

What color was your crust

[@ryleemock1384]

I got my piercing 4 days ago and my piercer never informed me to not move it. So my dumbass was moving it around thinking it would help it heal easier, and to prevent scabbing around the piercing. Now I'm here with a painful piercing, about to clean this shit the right way. Thank you!!

[@BruhNqzv]

“Umm” count: 46

[@LogicalGamingUK]

My piercer gave me a product called "Pressions" with an "X" behind it and it's "Dermatologist Tested". It's a spray for your piercing, supposed to use it 2 times a day and after meals.

[@keifferyazzie9094]

Literally got my septum pierced but the piercer had the wrong needle and messed up. He tried three times to put the jewelry in but it didn’t finally he got a bigger needle and it finally went in. I was bleeding and it was kinda traumatic. A bit painful because of how many times he put the needle in. Nonetheless it’s in and it’s okay other than putting it in:’)

[@ellarymazerov7976]

I got my done today and my piercer told me to move it a lot while it heals and it’s starting to get really sore and I’ve been spraying it with the saline solution they told me to buy but like It’s really starting to hurt to move now so I wanted to look up after care one more time to double check and I’m glad I did because now I no I shouldn’t just be moving it around all the time

[@indecisivesimp-leton6236]

I just got mine and the percier was good. I was scared and she was very calm which helped a bunch. I flinched a bit at the first poke and she explained it would be a one and done. She didt sugar coat about the pain either. Said it would hurt, it did, but i shed less tears then i thought i would Snot stings in it though.

[@Urbanbodyjewelry]

yeah that initial sting isn't so bad once it's over and gone ! congrats on the new piercing and sounds like it went well :) what made you get this one? something you've been wanting for a while now or?

[@samanthayoung3835]

I got my septum pierced 2 days ago and my piercer told me to keep it up and to only flip it down whenever I'm cleaning it (she recommended 2-3 times/day) my nose is kinda swollen and she told me to use 70% alcohol - antiseptic alcohol - to clean it (i don't know if you've heard it before but it's meant to be used in hospitals to sterilize things and bruises) so should I really flip it down when cleaning it? cause throughout the day i noticed that there are crusts and a bit of blood that's already dried out ps: sorry about any spelling and/or grammar mistakes, English isn't my first language 😊

Can you flip it up and leave it hidden during the healing process?

[@khloemcardle1792]

I’ve just had my septum done and I have my placement next week. I know they say wait 6-8 weeks for it to heal. But my piercing is too big to flip up and I wanted a smaller one. Do you reckon if I go back to my piercer they’ll put in a smaller one? It stings bad and I kinda wish I could just pull the balls off and then flip it up but the balls wont budge either

[@NerdyWithGlasses11]

khloe’ mca my piercer is having me come back in 2 weeks (just got mine done today) to get a smaller one in, so I figure if you go to the same lady you’ll be good

[@LucieLocket]

What about chamomile tea? I had a bump on my cartilage piercing so i added 100& chamomile tea to the seasalt water solution and had great results with that, but that piercing is about a year old now, would chamomile be ok on a fresh septum piercing?

[@_TIO]

I'm not sure if this helps at all, but a while back my parents had to get dental implants and the dentist said that the chamomile helps prevent infections (especially in the mouth), so I guess you could apply it to a septum piercing?

[@nagywywy]

My piercer said to care for it with aloe vera or chamomile tea, so yeah, go for it!
