What is 6g septum?

A 6g septum refers to a specific size of jewelry that can be worn in a stretched septum piercing. The gauge measurement of 6g is equivalent to 4mm, which is larger than a standard earlobe piercing. This size of septum jewelry is generally considered to be in the mid-range and is often worn by those who have stretched their septum piercing past its initial size. The jewelry options for a 6g septum include various styles of captive bead rings, circular barbells, and even some styles of plugs. It is important to stretch carefully and slowly to avoid damaging the piercing and to consult with a professional piercer for advice on sizing and aftercare.
