Viral Trend Alert! Fake Belly Buttons Are Being Sold As New Hack For Women Who Want Longer Legs
A new bizarre trend has caught the fancy of the internet. Fake belly button stickers are being sold to women who want their legs to appear longer.
You don't have to go to an expensive salon to make your legs appear longer. Makeup experts have come up with a more affordable way than surgery to "lengthen" their legs by using a sticky belly button sticker.
Why Are People Using Fake Belly Button Stickers?
Here's how it works: people with shorter legs simply attach this fake belly button sticker above their real one, and then they pull up their skirt or pants to hide the real belly button. You can find tutorials demonstrating this technique gaining popularity on the internet, especially within Asian communities.
And there you have it; the person now appears to have long, lengthy legs.
According to The Star, some enthusiasts of this "height hack" even apply makeup around the sticker to make it blend in more naturally.
Where Did The Trend Originate?
What began in China has now spread to the rest of the world, with eBay offering these "belly button tattoo stickers.¡± They even provide images of models showing the before-and-after results of using these adhesive stomach stickers.
Social media was swift to praise the benefits of this visual trickery. In popular TikTok videos, users enthusiastically share that they are "totally into" this hack because it makes their legs appear "10 times longer."
And it's not just a made-up story. In the accompanying videos, women demonstrate the technique, which indeed appears to add inches to their legs.
In another YouTube short, a famous South Korean content creator talked about how these tattoos were already a hit in China and have great potential to make it big in the South Korean market since people usually hop on quickly for such gimmicky viral trends in the country.
Though it may seem a bit lighthearted and amusing, this trick is much cheaper than other methods for lengthening your legs, some of which can cost over five figures.
