FAMOUS FOR STACHE-URE CREEPY

OR CUTE

Silent lm star, slapstick

comedyThe Toothbrush. Chaplin

is best known for his oft-reprised role as the Tramp,a character who wore atailcoat, derby hat and asmall tuft of black whiskersunder his nose. According tohis autobiography, Chaplin

devised the faux ’stacheto add age to his characterwithout hiding his facialexpressions.

1Off-screen, Chaplin was a

handsome, clean-shaven silverscreen star. But most peopletoday would not recognize himwithout the Toothbrush, whichis also less-pleasantly associ-ated with Adolf Hitler.

Extra-large Walrus

Thicker, less sinister pencil. In Gable’s most

famous role as Gone With the Wind’s Rhett Butler,the man nicknamed the “King of Hollywood”sported a cleanly coiffed ’stache that probablywould have looked sleazy on a less attractive man.But Gable’s classic good looks were somehowelevated — yes, elevated — by the presence of facial hair. Few men can say the same and for that,we’d like to crown Gable “King of the ’Stache.”

Pennybags has been seen

with the same ’stache since

1936, as the mascot for oneof the most popular games in

the world. He owns thislook.

is just an odd-looking Britishcomedian with three names.The mo is essential to mak-ing Borat as skin-crawlinglystrange as he is.

Being the most

iconic video gamecharacter of alltime, arguablymore recogniz-able than MickeyMouse and lovedby virtually anyoneborn after, say,1970.

So unique and recognizable, you could call i t

“The Mario.” Notable for being black when Mario’shair is actually brown.

’STACHE STYLEDEGREE OF

DIFFICULTY

(OUT OF 5)

For a small strip of hair that for most men average only a few inches, there’s a surprisingly large number of waysto style a moustache.

Thin or thick, curly or straight, droopy or perky — the

choices are endless.

 As the whiskers start to grow in on the upper lips of many men this Movember — when men grow mous-taches to raise money and awareness for Prostate CancerCanada — we thought we would take a minute to reflect

on some of history’s most iconic mo’s.

Thin and unbridged

across the philtrum

(the cleft between

nose and upper lip),

this is a mo that

requires grooming.

We can onlyimagine that

getting a

mo to curve

in perfect

symmetry is

harder than it

looks.

Is there even

any stylinghere?

Requires hairy

genes and lots of

testosterone

rather than exten-

sive grooming

Few real people can

grow a moustache

that perfect.

Requires lots of

maintenance and

a complete lack of

self-consciousness

Needs regular

maintenance and

a steady hand

It takes a super-

steady hand not

to shave that

puppy off each

morning

If you could grow a

moustache longer

than your arms,

you’d be in Guinness

World Records
