Question,
What do you do for work that allows for so many piercings
I get so much crap about my gauges at work, it's annoying
I take my septum ring out, then the only piercing that's really obvious is my nose piercing, which is the least offensive facial piercing to ever exist. My web piercing is under my tongue, so it's not really ever visible. I make sure all of my gauges have cute plugs in them instead of tunnels, which I think is less noticeable/offensive. At one particularly conservative job I had in the past, I changed them out for some that could be mistaken for normal earrings and it just looked like I had unfortunately large lobes. I think I used two cubic zirconium plugs for the smaller ones and a cute little flowery dangle plug for the big one.
I work as a graphic designer, docent, and student. A lot of my work is done from home, and thankfully I think most people in the design industry don't care much at all. Recently I've even been leaving the septum ring in. They're so common nowadays that I don't think anyone even bats an eye unless you work customer service. Right now I've got a cute little rose gold hoop in my septum and not even old people seem to care.
How was your experience with the web piercing? Thinking about getting one myself
It really doesn't hurt at all, but the forceps are a bit much. And the anxiety of something potentially being dropped down my throat was pretty considerable for both me and the piercer. Thankfully that didn't happen and it all went really smoothly. I couldn't even tell when the needle went through.
Your septum is so cool! Also your lip color is on point
