Since the launch of Movember more men are embracing facial hair, at least for one month of the year. However those blokes are rank amateurs compared to the competitors at the World Beard and Mustache Championships.
You’ll recognize many familiar hairstyles here, from the Fu Manchu to the Handlebar Mustache. They’re the sort of facial hair we rarely see in the real world, which makes this video all the more fascinating.
It must take some serious dedication to create such weird and wonderful facial hairstyles. Thank goodness that these championships exist so these men can get the credit they deserve!
