To grow a curved mustache, you'll need to combine consistent grooming with training the hairs through combing, waxing, and styling.
Steps to Achieving a Curved Mustache
Here's a breakdown of the process:
-
Let it Grow: First and foremost, you need to allow your mustache to grow long enough to be styled. This typically takes several weeks or months, depending on your natural hair growth rate.
-
Combing for Direction: Begin training your mustache hairs early by combing them in the desired direction of the curve daily. This helps to encourage them to grow that way naturally. Use a small mustache comb for best results.
-
Trimming for Shape: As your mustache grows, you'll need to trim it to maintain the desired shape and prevent it from becoming unruly. Focus on trimming the edges to create a clean, defined handlebar look.
-
Waxing for Hold: Mustache wax is key to achieving and maintaining a curved shape.
- Application: Warm a small amount of wax between your fingers to make it pliable.
- Styling: Apply the wax to your mustache, working it in evenly. Use your fingers to shape and curl the hairs into the desired curve. For a classic handlebar, twist the ends upward and outward.
-
Finger Styling: After applying wax, use your fingers to refine the shape and create the desired curves. This is an ongoing process, and you may need to restyle your mustache throughout the day to maintain the shape.
-
Maintenance: Regular grooming and styling are essential to keeping your curved mustache looking its best. Comb and wax it daily, and trim it as needed to maintain the shape.
By consistently following these steps, you can train your mustache to grow and hold a curved shape.
