(Without Looking Overdone)

A well-groomed moustache isn’t just facial hair, it’s a statement of style and confidence. Whether you’re rocking a bold handlebar, a classic chevron, or just want a clean everyday look, learning how to style your moustache the right way will instantly level up your appearance. The best part? You don’t need a barber’s appointment to keep it sharp—you can do it at home with the right tools and a few simple steps.

Choose the Right Moustache Style

Before you grab the scissors or trimmer, it’s important to know which moustache style suits your face shape and personality.

• Handlebar: Bold, curled ends that give off vintage charm.
• Chevron: A thick, full moustache that covers the top lip.
• Pencil: Neat and thin, perfect for minimalist grooming.
• Natural: Low maintenance, simply trimmed to stay tidy.

Not sure where to start? Begin with a natural moustache and slowly work into a style as it grows.

Keep It Clean and Conditioned

Styling starts with a clean moustache. Wash regularly with a gentle beard wash to remove food, dirt, and excess oil. A quality beard oil or balm will keep hairs soft, manageable, and hydrated, making them much easier to style.

At Bloke and Co, our all-natural beard products are designed to keep your moustache fresh without toxins, so your skin stays healthy too.

Trim with Precision

Even if you’re growing your moustache out, trimming is non-negotiable. Use grooming scissors or a precise trimmer to shape the edges and keep hairs from curling into your mouth. Always trim dry, wet hair looks longer and you might cut off more than you intended. Focus on balance rather than perfect symmetry; a natural look is better than one that’s overworked.

Style and Train Your Moustache

A good styling balm or wax is your best mate for keeping stray hairs in check. Warm a small amount between your fingers and work it through the moustache, combing it into place with a boar bristle brush for a natural finish. If you’re going for a handlebar, twist the ends outward until they curl slightly, then set them in place with balm.

Avoid Common Moustache Mistakes

• Don’t over-trim your moustache needs some fullness to hold shape.
• Don’t skip washing product build-up and food particles can ruin the look.
• Don’t ignore the rest of your face your beard, hair, and brows all play a part in your overall style.
