Years ago, two enlightened Kiwis realised that, when it comes to health issues, men aren't particularly vigilant. I think it's true to say, that as a general rule, we'd rather walk it off, or wait til that suspicious looking lump starts to hurt before we get ourselves checked out at the doc's.

This led the aforementioned Kiwis into creating Movember. This occurs during the month of November, and consists of men growing and sculpting their moustaches, effectively becoming a walking billboard for men's health issues, specifically prostate cancer.

So, I ask of you two questions.

(1) I myself am participating in Movember along with all my workmates. The winner this year, will be the one who creates the most creative moustche. I have some ideas, but I think it would be useful if people could give feedback. And please, don't just say 'handlebars lolol11!!'. Been there, done that last year, and really it's fairly generic. Stretch your imaginations.

(2) If any of you are capable of growing moustaches, I ask you to participate with friends or family members. You can both feel good about doing something for charity, and look good with your strapping mo'.

Let the growth begin.

(I realise I'm a little late into November, but hey I've been busy fostering some serious facial hair, so give me a break!)

Uhh looks to me that you quoted your text and not quoted others' lol XD

Bah, I can't find any "sensible" beards without pooping up different images of "Colossus Man Shows His Two-Foot-Thick Beard" in every page of Google. I have to find legit sites and actually get good images. That one was the best I could find lol XD

Freakensteiin, yes I've been having the same problem. Whilst these beards of nuclear proportions are fun, they aren't exactly Movember potential.

note no beard.


Well then, I shall be modeling a beard n the style of Gerard Butler in 300. Better?

Its a cool beard style none the less.


Precisely. 'm sticking with the idea until another comes up, although I'll take some persuading. I think it's pretty fly.

Basically everything in the first link is what I put in image form on page one. ;-)

Whatever you do, never go with the toothbrush style, if you catch my drift. Second linky tells you how to achieve those styles and what to do with them.

This one has to be the best.


Personally I thought this one was better.

I grew it all until my face was buried in facial hair. But that was a few months ago. Now, now I just plan on shaving it until it's crisp and clean. To much of a hassle this year.

Really, it should be remembered as the Charlie Chaplain. It's a shame Hitler tarnished it so. Thanks for the links.

Oh do make some effort to be original. The handlebars are a classic, and I think every ale under the age of 25 should grow them at least once to get it out of their system. But, growing them for Movember? Come on.

Do tell. The sculpting doesn't take place until the end of the month, so it's not too late to make a suggestion.
