Fast approaching, is the month of furry face forests. Each year we join men all over the world, to raise awareness of testicular cancer, by becoming the coolest cats on the block. As usual, we have been asked about moustache ideas for Movember, so coming up are five face forests for you to flourish.
This year is of course no different. What will be different is our level of excitement, and the extent to which we’re getting involved.
We will of course have the usual Movember Walls of Fame in our shops displaying the best soup strainers, and a free shave off at the end. Additionally, there will be a dedicated section of the website keeping you up to date with all we’re doing and how our Chaps are getting on.
For a little inspiration, we thought we’d look at our favourite styles of flavour saver that we’ve seen over the years and offering you some moustache ideas for Movember.
The Pencil Moustache – Level: Tricky
Is it time to draw a line under it, who nose? The Pencil Moustache takes its name from its appearance, just a thin line across the top lip. Appearing like a line drawn with a pencil, you may recognise this little face lace on the spooky face of Gomez Adams.
Not the easiest look to pull off successfully. It’s going to take a steady hand, regular upkeep and probably a week or two of steady growth to really get it popping. These work great for those whose dirt squirrel doesn’t quite meet in the middle.
The Monopoly Guy – Level: Simple
You may remember him from such punishments as “Do not Pass Go”, “Do not Collect £200” or simply “Go to Jail”. The Monopoly Guy has been a thistle in the toe of many a board game enthusiast for years.
The requirement is a full lip of hair, grown out like the handlebar. You complete the look by twizzling the ends of your manometer with a bit of wax and giving it an upsweep. Kind of like a letter ‘w’.
The Walrus – Level: Intense
I am he as you are he as you are me, and we are all together. Have you ever fancied taking a step towards becoming the walrus? Well, now is your chance.
The Walrus is like an overgrown Chevron. Thick, bushy, but passing over the top lip, it’s a real showstopper. More giant slug, than facial caterpillar, the Walrus was most popular in the early 1900’s. Theodore “Teddy” Roosevelt swept the floors of the White House with his.
To accomplish the Walrus in one month would be quite the fete. It’s one that may need a run up. The thickness is going to take a few months growth. So maybe one is best left for our bearded brothers who brave the shave to compete in the push broom heat.
The Horseshoe Moustache – Level: Moderate
Known for good luck, a horseshoe maybe just the answer you were looking for. If that’s the case, then look no further than the horseshoe moustache.
Probably one of the most recognisable styles, the horseshoe runs across the lip, then down either side of your chin. It leaves you looking like you just took a big old slurp out of the gravy bowl. For examples of the horseshoe, you might Google image search such legends as George Michael, Paul Rudd or, you can just imagine Hulk Hogan in your own mind.
Fairly easy to pull the horseshoe off, so long as you have consistent growth between your lips and chin. A little bit of shaping, and hey-presto, you’ve got a lucky nose neighbour.
The Chevron – Level: Easy
The Chevron is the classic. Just a full-on bushy lip. Not much required for maintenance but will likely need a run up. A full bloom, using light trimming to keep it at bay around the lip area, the Chevron fills the gap between nose and top lip.
They’ll never dust a full cookie if your lip-cap doesn’t meet in the middle though. Therefore, it’s important to know your mo-bro before heading down this avenue of the Chevron as your bristle baton of choice.
What We’re Doing
As we mentioned, this year we’re going a little further than last, and keeping you updated throughout the month in a dedicated corner of our website. If you’re getting involved, head down to any of our locations so we can get a snap and add you to the Chaps & Co Movember Wall of Fame. Hopefully our moustache ideas for Movember have given you a little encouragement.
We’re offering prizes for our favourite nose bug, so be sure to get involved. Again, we’ll be offering a free shave to those who want to whip their wig weasels away at the end of the month, so get yourself booked in.
For a little more fun, there are 16 crustache puns woven into this article for you to find. See if you can locate them all and let us know on the socials.
Don’t forget the reason we come together for this fantastic cause, and get to #KnowThyNuts
