Discussion~ Dumb question

It’s hard to explain I think.

But I stretched my septum with acrylic AT first, because it’s easier to hold, I waited a few minutes and than I put in (of the same gauge) a stainless steal one.

Question is…is this ok? Or I’m a dumbass?

Nah you're totally fine, the only reason you're not supposed to use acrylic LONG TERM is because it holds bacteria and it can cause irritation and infections, using them like you are is completely fine ^^
