Thanks for that, brought a couple of cuckles. So many possibilities! Your perfectly right sir, a 'tash should be essential to a gentleman's appearance,

Many, many times I was the only guy around who had one. They tried to make me shave it in the Air Force but they couldn't because regulations allowed it. I put up with a lot of grief for my Burt Reynolds/Magnum PI macho man era lip decor but I've always worn it with pride. It seems that other guys were always telling me to shave it. Jealous perhaps? Women have always responded favorably. I think they like a man who isn't afraid to do something different. Having seen Burt, Tom Selleck, and Sam Elliott without theirs, my wife has told me I'm not allowed to ever shave mine.

I used to buy Oregon Wild Hair on ebay, but I had to use both clubman and the OWH to achieve the look I wanted. For example, I curled the stashe using clubman, then went back over it with the OWH to make it stay put. If I can find a wax that does both, then I'll stick with that brand lol.

Alas, I started growing mine back a month ago but shaved it off last week. I don't know why. I had one for several years that rivaled the stashes you boys have grown. The fact that the recent regrowing was coming in grey might have deterred me for a while.
