Nostril Hair Extensions Are Going Viral Right Now

OK, I've officially seen all the beauty trend weirdness I need to see for 2017. I'm ready to move onto 2018 — please and thank you. Sure, October just started, but January can't come soon enough. Here's why: A picture of someone with false lashes glued around her nostrils just popped up on my Instagram Explore page, and I'm now questioning everything I know about beauty. The person behind the nostril hair extensions only has 193 followers. I don't understand how her post made its way into my algorithm, but I might need to delete my Instagram and start again.

Someone who goes by @gret_chen_chen posted the soon-to-go-viral photo Wednesday. She literally curled a falsie around the opening of each of her nostrils and called the look "nose hair extension." Excuse me, I need a moment to let that sink in.

With brow art trends at their peak, it was only a matter of time before someone tried to take viral beauty trends to another part of the face. (Eyes and lips are so 2016.) Extreme contouring aside, noses really haven't had their time to shine. So does this mean more people will start gluing other weird beauty shit to their schnozzes now? Only time will tell.

The more I look at these nostril hair extensions, the more I'm into it. Let's be real, it's got a chic Twiggy vibe that cannot be ignored. I'm convinced that @gret_chen_chen and the creator of braided brows are on a higher level of genius that society needs to take some time before fully appreciating — you know, like Picasso or Van Gogh.
