Movember … er, November, is Prostate Cancer Awareness Month. Whether you’re in the fight against prostate cancer as a Mo Bro, a Mo Sista, or a financial contributor, Movember provides Americans a great opportunity to raise awareness and money in the fight against a disease expected to take the lives of over 28,000 American men this year alone.
If you’ve registered as a Mo Bro this Movember and find yourself in unfamiliar territory as far as your face goes, there’s no need to worry. In no time at all you’ll find that mustache starts to suit you. Not only are you making a statement about your commitment to the fight against prostate and testicular cancer, chances are your face is making a bold statement, too. A bold fashion statement.
In case you’re wondering what type of mustache best suits you, you might consult the American Mustache Institute’s Style Guide.
Here are some possibilities the AMI offers:
- The Dali, named after Salvador Dali, is narrow mustache with long points bent or curved steeply upward.
- The English is narrow divided mustache that begins at the middle of the upper lip, with long whiskers pulled to either side of the center.
- The Chevron is a thick and wide mustache, usually worn long to cover the top border of the upper lip.
- The Horseshoe is a full mustache with vertical extensions grown on the corners of the lips and down the sides of the mouth to the jawline, resembling an upside-down horseshoe.
- The Imperial is a large mustache growing from both the upper lip and cheeks, with whiskers from the cheeks styled pointing upward.
- The Painter’s Brush is a thick mustache covering the width of the mouth, usually worn short, with slightly rounded corners.
- The Walrus is a large, bushy, droopy mustache that hangs down over the lips, often entirely covering the mouth.
If you visit the AMI Style Guide, you’re sure to find a look that suits you.
Whether you choose to be a Mo Sister, a financial contributor, or a mustache model for a month, spread the word this Movember and keep fighting the good fight for men’s cancer awareness.
