Now that we have reached the end of October, there is one event that everybody is talking about - Movember! Movember is an incredible charity that raises awareness regarding men’s health and covers a variety of significant topics. There are a number of ways that all can take part in Movember, from runs to workplace challenges and of course the most common way of growing a moustache. If you decide to go down the moustache route, we have a few tips and tricks to get you groomed and ready for Movember.
Now, before we go onto the products to keep your moustache looking on top form during Movember, there are a few rules that we must cover first:
Rule One
First of all, it’s not too late to sign up - so make sure you do this by visiting Movember.com and signing up. However, you must start by the 1st of November with a completely clean-shaven face.
Rule Two
The second rule is that you must grow and groom your moustache for the whole of November
Rule Three
Cheating is forbidden and this includes: beards and fake moustaches
Rule Four
The only rule left to cover is to make sure you raise awareness - whether you do this by shouting about Movember on social media or adding stickers to your car window, just tell everybody.
Growing Your Moustache
In the early weeks of Movember, focus on encouraging faster hair growth. The easiest way? Just leave your facial hair alone. As it grows, you might feel some itching—this is totally normal. The longer your hair gets, the softer and less irritating it will become.
As your moustache grows, comb it in the direction you want it to grow. This helps train the hair to take the shape you’re aiming for.
Skincare is just as important. Exfoliate your face once a week to unclog pores and promote hair growth. A great option is our Wahl 5 Star Moisturiser, which keeps your skin fresh, healthy and ready for the best Movember look.
Styling Your Moustache
Now comes the real challenge—keeping it looking its best. Just like the hair on your head, your facial hair needs care too.
There are plenty of products out there designed specifically for moustaches, but we highly recommend Osmo Berber Oil. Made with argan oil, it nourishes, hydrates, provides control and leaves a polished finish, ensuring your moustache stays styled and looking great all day.
After Movember
If you decide to keep your moustache after Movember, regular trips to the barber are a great idea. It might seem odd to trim your facial hair if you’re growing it out, but it’s actually essential. Just like head hair, moustaches can get split ends and trimming them keeps your look clean and tidy.
Whether you keep your moustache or shave it off, give yourself a big pat on the back. You’ve completed Movember and most importantly, helped raise money and awareness for an amazing cause.
