In their perpetual pursuit to “out-weird” the rest of the world, the Japanese have resorted to perhaps the stupidest body mod fad of all-time.
No, those kids up there in the photo aren’t suffering from progressed brain tumors. Rather, they are bagelheads: people who modify their body so that it looks like a giant bagel is growing out of their skin.
The look is accomplished through the use of a saline solution drip, which is injected at your local tattoo/piercing shop by a professional piercer. The injection causes massive swelling, which can then be molded and pressed into the shape of your choosing.
Naturally, the Japanese chose the logical shape of a bagel.
Apparently, if a skin-shaped bagel isn’t enough for you, you can add food dye to give color to your bump. So, with a few dots of black food coloring, I guess you could easily transform your plain old bagelhead into a much more delicious cinnamon raisin.
The fad isn’t relegated to just the face. Low-IQ Japanese in Tokyo and Osaka have also been injecting bagels into their boobs, arms and ass.
Thankfully, the bagels only last for one night before your body gobbles up the saline solution and your skin returns to normal. Still, possible side effects include headache, infection, stretched skin, the inability to wear a hat and getting laughed at by everyone who looks at you.
So gross!
Om nom nom
there’s always someone out there to do it…lol
Freaks try to be noticed. This is the only way to them to be noticed.
well, you’re right. this is pretty weird.
By far the most retarded thing I’ve ever seen. Dumbasses.
Why is this written as “The Japanese”? Sure, it’s strange but you see people doing stuff like this in the US and Canada all the time. Not like most or even many people in Japan think this is fashionable or normal.
Are you kidding me? I totally want to grope that bagel! right. WTF. No one in their right mind and completely sober would ever get that done. Nasty.

Idiocracy
People taking advange of lower level IQ people, who are in d e e p need for acceptance !
the people appying the saline should be banned and fined !!
If those r bagles, can they just finish it off and add some big slices of lox.
Then maybe we can completly not see thier faces !!
kind of makes u think, anyone even remotly good looking, would pass on this. a trend for the japanse ulgy.
i got my ear pierced!!! if you want to see a picture of it, just hit me up!
It’s more that STUPID…it’s an abomination!!
Hey! How about the ?Ubangi’s? of Africa with their large distorted lips, somewhere in ?central? Africa?
I was in Japan shooting a fashion show for World Swimwear and I hve to say the club seen in Japan is pretty freaky. This bagelhead thing would be great in a Hollywood movie, or even on Halloween. These guys eyes are swollen! Looks gross and painful.
can cream cheese and loxheads be far behind?

You really didn’t do your research very well before posting this story. Bagel heads was just a fun term made up by a person on a bulletin board called Fucked Gaijin when he first reported and cited the original story.
The people who do this DO NOT call themselves bagel heads.
I wish that journalists would actually do a bit more research before posting this sort of name as fact. It isn’t that hard to do. But I guess why let the truth get in the way of a good story.
Dear Goddess.
Lighten up, lest I call you a lox-head.
Yrs,

damn asians. first pearl harbor, now this?
mayamayamaybe we can find soolluution?
WE DA POLEECE
DA POLLLEEEEEEEEEEEEECE
No, the story is inaccurate and poorly researched across, across most of the Western blogosphere. The folks at The Bagelheads appear to have figured it out by observing what eastern bloggers/sites were saying about the alleged “Japanese fad.”
It wasn’t a fad at all, only a small example of activities within a minority body modification community within Japan (there’s one in almost every country). And they don’t call themselves bagelheads.
Kind of funny how people who have most likely never been to a country outside their own jump on a picture and a badly reported story. I hope the JP news has pictures of people in your countries and say you all look like idiots too.
WOW WTF. NO ONE DOES THIS IN JAPAN. ARE U INSANE??? as if the world isnt discriminating enough already….
