16G Black PVD Opalite Stainless Steel Septum Clicker

Super cute, I’ll give it that. However, the mechanism to actually get this through your piercing is so difficult—maybe my septum is too wide, but I barely had room to even navigate the loose hinge through my nose. I have never had such a difficult time with a nose ring. That said, I can deal with a little difficulty. What I cannot deal with is poor build quality. I know this is a $17 piece of jewelry, but how does an opal fall out within *two* days of wearing it? So irritating because again, it is really cute but now it looks lopsided and broken (because it is). Next.

Problematic hinges

I have bought two of these. One in each size. The first, smaller one the hinge on it was extremely loose and hard to get into my septum because of it. The second larger one had the totally opposite issue, it was so stiff I was only able to open it about 1/4 the way. They are also very hard to open, especially when in my piercing. However, they are super cute in.
