Umm...yeah. I've been hearing about this whole "bagelhead" trend for the past few days and finally had to do some research because I honestly didn't think it was a real thing.
But unfortunately, the Japanese have decided to up their weirdness factor by coming up with this ridiculous body modification fad. There are literally thousands of pictures, of those who proclaim themselves bagelheads, strewn all over the internet.
Okay, so the look itself is pretty bad. But even worse than the result is what these bagelheads do in order to look like they have something living under their skin. Using a saline solution drip, bagelheads are injected by professional piercers in a specific location, which causes a ton of inflammation and swelling. Then the area can be molded and dented in to their liking. Using food dye, you can even color your bump!The process takes about two hours. And it only lasts for one night.
Totally worth it, right??!
Now one thing to keep in mind is that using this technique can be used virtually anywhere on your bod. People have been seen inflating their boobs, booty, arms and everywhere you can imagine to get a cartoon-esque look that drives the opposite sex wild…or makes them run away screaming.
Side affects may include headache, infection, skin stretching, a pressure sensation, a slight case of wonky eye, oh yeah, and a swollen body part that looks like it needs some cream cheese.
I can't even believe that people are doing this! If you want a new look for a night, throw on a temporary tattoo.
Looking for more disgusting details? Here's a video that shows the entire, horrifying process:
