Your septum is the small strip of skin that is between your nostrils, just before the cartilage of the nose. Septum piercings are also known as "bull rings" as they look like the ring a bull has in its nose. The good thing about a septum piercing is its ease of being hidden. If you get the area pierced with a circular (horseshoe) barbell, you can flip the piercing upwards into the nostrils and hide it completely. For this reason, a septum piercing is a great piece of body jewelry to have for someone who wants to conceal the piercing for work or other reasons.
