Looks like I'm one of the many who's gotten their septum pierced recently! I went to Progressive Piercing in Chicago to get mine done at 12g. I was really nervous since I've heard that the septum is one of the more painful piercings, but I was amazed by how little mine hurt. It felt like a nosehair got pulled and that was it! I didn't even tear up. No pictures since I've got the retainer flipped up until it's healed, but it's definitely my favorite piercing so far!
