Fuck ham crowns and snackwave sweaters, because the hot new trend sweeping China is #sproutcore aka sticking beansprouts on your head.
Yep, apparently men, women and children are all dressing up their dos with barrettes adorned with fake plants -- a phenomenom that's well documented across social media by the accompanying #sproutcore tag.
As for how this bizarre trend first cropped up (lol), there are competing theories with some believing it was inspired by a cartoon character on a show called Pleasant Goat and the Big Big Wolf, while others cite cosplay as the initial impetus. Either way, we're very into this loopy, legume-y look. Check out some more snaps below.
