What’s the idea?
Unlike the hair on your body and head, your mustache is always moving with you whether you’re chewing, talking, drinking or smooching. Using good quality wax allows you to keep everything in place but without any stickiness or residue. Mustache wax is a more solid pomade applied to a mustache as a grooming aid to hold the hairs in place, especially the tips. It is safe to be applied near the mouth. The hold depends on the hair thickness and length.
How to apply?
Mustache wax keeps your mustache in style and food free. You might not get it right from the first time but don’t give up. Here’s how to do it:
- Use the back of your thumbnail to scrape off some wax.
- Transfer the wax to your index, and rub it with your two index fingers until it is soft.
- Apply the wax to your mustache with both hands, with a soft movement from the center to the end of your stache, so you train the hair to grow in the right direction
- Comb your mustache with a mustache comb to distribute the wax evenly.
- Repeat whenever needed.
Tips: If you are looking for a natural look, do not use a big amount of wax, and don’t twist the ends. Some like to blow dry the mustache on a high heat to blend the wax in. I personally do not do it. If you want a handlebar look, you’ll need to apply more product and twist the edge hairs into a point. Depending on the length of your stache, you may want to grab the hair at the base as you twist so you don’t rip out any mustache hairs. However, if you want a handlebar mustache, you will definitely need to apply more wax and style your mustache into the desired look.
Training my mustache?
The pattern your mustache grows into is pure genetics, which is why you need to train it to keep it out of your mouth and into the style your want. Believe us when we tell you that if you don’t, the mustache will take a life of its own. The two main methods are combing with a quality mustache comb and using our mustache wax.
