In the middle of a move, I wound up with my septum piercing closing some, so a standard 16G septum piercing would no longer fit.
I was surprised just how uncommon 18G and 16G taper sets are online, and I'm HIGHLY impressed with the quality of the steel ones I ordered from Rebel Bod! Shipping took a week longer than I expected, which was the only downside, but otherwise the product itself was well worth the wait and price of ordering individual tapers. Well worth looking into for larger taper sizes for lobes!
