Septum tunnels?

I’m asking this massively in advance, and it’s probably a dumb question, but anyway. I’ve just gotten my septum pierced and I’m planning on beginning to stretch it once it heals. I’d like to put a tunnel it when I get to the size I want, but my searches for “septum tunnel” aren’t turning up much of anything… So I’m guessing I just get a regular tunnel, like the ones I’d use in my ears, in the size I want. Am I right?
You are indeed.
Some tunnels will come in different lengths too - the shorter ones fit nice and comfy. I have a ss 4mm internally-threaded ‘top hat’ tunnel in mine and it is so comfortable I forget it’s there.

Awesome, you rock. I love being right.
Dean on October 7th, 2008 at 11:10 amI just had my septum stretched to 8g with a standard industrial strength 3/8″ tunnel with double o-rings. It seems to be a little harder to keep clean than a simple staple retainer, but it’s very unobtrusive and I will continue to stretch using tunnels until I reach 2-4g. Like lobes, if you have a particularly thick septum you may need a slightly longer tunnel, but I have a good 1/16″ slack in my case after o-rings.
