As a woman it sometimes feels like we spend our lives waxing, tweezing and just generally upkeeping our body hair. So, in recent months it has been a refreshing change to see woman embrace going au naturel, growing out everything from brows, to armpits and legs – we were all for the empowering look.

However, Instagram user gret_chen_chen has now taken the beauty trend one step further by showcasing ‘nostril hair extensions’.

Before you start the panic, the bizarre look isn’t actually real, Chen glued false eyelash extensions to her nostrils in order to create one very hairy and creepy look.

Scarily enough, it’s catching on with people eager to try the unusual trend.

Several Instagram users have already posted snaps, rocking some added nostril hair. Meanwhile, Taytay_xx has even created a YouTube video on how you too can achieve the look.
