Bait With Your Heart


Hey, how about that? Long-time friend of BME and full-time Mexican Mutant, Phineas Gage Louie, just stretched himself up a two-gauge septril piercing! “Biggest ever?” he asks. What do you all think — anyone ever seen a bigger septril than this? Not that it’s a contest or anything … but, y’know, if it were, Louie, like, totally wins.

A bonus shot of El Mutante with a clearer look at his hu-yuuuuge horns and other various facial accoutrements, after the jump.

    very cute! The horns fit his face very well, and I really like the stretched nostrils and microdermal placement.

    Kaitlin is a very luck gal!

    Vern: To answer your question, the piercing just made my eyes water. As for the stretching of my septril, I think having my nostrils stretched helped out a lot. I couldnt imagine trying to insert a taper or transfering jewelry. Like any piercing the stretching sucked a little.

    Ok to answering the questions how about the septril works. First I pierced and stretched my septum. So now there is a bigger hole. Then you pierce that skin and it goes through and sits in the septum. I wear a single flared color front plug from Gorilla Glass. I hope this makes some sense. Its easier to show someone in person.

    hellonightmare: Steve Haworth did the procedure. He cleaned up all the scar tissue that was built up and sutured the holes closed. Not a pleasant procedure at all!

    I’m actually glad to see the lip plates gone, I’m not a fan at all, and they detract so much from a lovely smile! The septril is interesting, I never would have thought of that one :p Septums are my favourite piercing though and I thought Louie looked great with the large pincher-style jewelry.
