Handle Bar Mustache
« on: March 14, 2014, 05:51:39 PM »


I've been experimenting with mustache curling, and I absolutely love it. Anyone else rock the curled mustache look? If so, what's your routine?

I've tried mustache wax, but found that it leaves residue behind, and wouldn't hold very well. O read something a while ago about Elmer's purple invisible stick glue, and let me tell ya, I won't use anything else now. It holds all day, and washes out very well with no visible residue.

Cool look.... and really cool to know about the invisible glue stick. 

Here is another link to a tread on here about Handlebars:\

I know there is at least one other thread where guys posted some pics, but I can't remember where it is.

Thanks, I don't know about anyone else with a mustache, but I've been growing mine for 8 months, and it doesn't seem to be growing in length as much as the beard. It's tricky for sure.

The mustache is always the slowest growing part.

I have used Firemans Mustache Wax, Got-2-B-Glued hair spiking gel, and the Elmers school glue.  I agree with you, I use the Elmer's most often and it seems to work best.

It takes some practice to get the wax moustache handlebars looking right. I warm the pot of wax on the radiator for 10 mins, dab in the wax gently on the moustachce so as not pull out the hairs and comb through.

Thank you, Slymyke ... been wearing the 'bars now for about 6 weeks. Waxing them up in the morning is part of the daily routine. Think I'd feel 'naked' without them now ... lol !!!

I tried using mustache was (mostly dabbling,) and I did not like the look. I feel it's just not me anyway.
Once upon a time. The End.

LOL! That was not the voice I was expecting!  I could have sworn you had mentioned being from California.  Great video too, and I sometimes think I should get some sort of little mini wax heater because I usually try warming it in my fingers which isn't enough and then it rips out hairs.

Now I'm thinking of Dr. Who and how I am still waiting for an entire season to appear on Netflix...
