There are very few people that can successfully pull of a pencil ‘stache without attracting the attention of Chris Hanson. Salvador Dali did it, Raoul Julia was able to do it occasionally, Prince became a sex symbol with his, and of course John Waters has been rocking his for decades. Now when many of us were kids, especially those of us with dads who had a mustache, a pencil could easily transform into a mustache. Just stick it under your nose and curl your top lip. It was the memory of doing that as a kid that led IAM: Ominous Angus to get this finger tattoo. To him it’s a reminder to never grow too old.

Mo-Movember
I asked for Movember photos, and they’re starting to pile in. This luscious moustache paired with a septum piercing is just the first of many more to come.
Piercing by Dearest Jane.
The Refined Gentleman
He is a man of impeccable tastes. Always knowledgeable of the finer things in life. And you can always spot him in the crowd as the classiest looking, probably sporting a dignified mustache . To give an example of such refinement, The Wong Fukin Person has sent in this photo.
To see the non-blurred version of this dapper looking young man, you know what to do.
You probably recognize the hafada jewelry from the last time we saw Wong. It’s just a shame he didn’t send this in last month because I probably would have used this photo for a Movember Monday.
Movember Mourning
Well, this is the final Movember Monday post for the year. It’s been a great month, and we’ve seen a lot of fantastic mustaches. For some people the end of the month means a day to shave away that band of brilliance upon their upper lip, yet to others it becomes a point of pride, a light in the darkness, a place to grow not only an epic mustache, but a beard as well! So while Movember is finished, Bearduary is just around the corner, so get those beards growing!
Now to celebrate the end of the month, lets take a look at one of the finest mustaches that has been submitted in the past month. While I don’t know the name of the gentleman pictured below, I do know that the claw scars on his shoulders were done by IAM: Dark freak from Brazil.
No-shave November
With all this talk of Movember, it’s sometimes easy to forget those among us who don’t just grow in a mustache in November. Take KingFrankWaits for example, he’s rocking an expertly curled ‘stache that blends in well with his beard. I’m guessing that the purplish mark around his nostril piercing means he just had it done shortly before this photo was taken.
He also looks like a genuinely happy guy, which is always nice to see. And given how many e-mails I got this month asking for some bearded boys, I’m pretty sure there will be some other happy people when they see this photo.
More Movember Madness
With every mustache there is the chance for a beard. ICollectTheDead shows us just how much that is true. Looking very dashing (and a little psychotic) in his suit, he’s proving that one can have multiple labret piercings and a beard without the two conflicting.
The madness isn’t over yet. Coming up later today, my choices for best mustache and beard combo, as well as best overall mustache for the month.
Movember Impmovisation
So what do you do if you don’t have a mustache but you want to get in on the fun of Movember? Simple, follow Babasom’s example.
When in doubt, use your big septum to improvise a mustache.
Movember = No Shave November
So while today has been all about the mustache, we must not forget about the best form of facial hair, the beard!
Thankfully with No Shave November upon us, a lot of beards are starting to show up in the galleries. And with every good beard, a mustache is sure to follow.
Now, seeing as how this is a beard post, and knowing how much the ModBlog readers love their bearded men, I figured might as well post an image not only of a beard, but of a bearded zombie lumberjack.
Big thanks to Overkill for sending in this photo of his Halloween costume. Or was the the photo of his normal attire?
Movember isn’t just for the boys
Ok ladies, just because the majority of you can’t grow a mustache, that doesn’t mean you’re exempt from submitting Movember photos.
Check out Overkill‘s friend. She’s found a way to show her support for Movember.
Head on over to the galleries to see a couple more photos that Overkill uploaded recently.
The Movembearded Lady
Intheyearmmmmlv sent in this photo of a bearded lady tattoo sporting an excellently twirled Mo. The artist is Dave Kruseman from Forever Yours Tattoo Gallery in Douglasville, GA.
There’s been so many really good Movember submissions so far this month, but there’s still lots of time left. Remember to send in your mustache (and beard) related photos.
