How to Train and Style your First Mustache 

Awesome video! I like to train my moustache with 10 lb plates. 5 sets of 5.

Who’s here for their Quarantine stache lol

Found obi 2 Kenobi

Great instructional video. I've always left the sides of my mustache grow down with my beard and trimmed in between just even with the bottom of my top lip. However, I've recently decided to start training my mustache since the hair is growing down over my lip again. It's definitely a patience game. I agree 100% about NOT trimming those hairs that are left hanging down. Doing so will not only create a gap, but take away from the fullness of a thicker bolder 'stache and create a continuous cycle of trimming them.

I used Old Spice Pomade and Honest Amish Beard Wax to train mine. At just a little over a month old mine already stays in trained place after sleeping all night. The BEARD wax doesn’t have any hold and I used mainly to keep hairs soft. The sticky pomade does a good job controlling the wild hairs as you train. It’s never to early to start training and it pays off after a month

Scott, I'm a beginner. I was looking for video just like this and got it today. Thanks a lot man

I;m working on the Tom Sellek mustache, I'm almost there. good video, thank you.

I'm glad I stumbled on your video Scott....I'm in the process of growing out my stache and goatee. Cheers and thanks!

Thanks for this video dude. Out of maybe 10 videos, yours is the one that showed me how to start training my mustache the right way. Just got my first wax in today and was having a really hard time applying it. Thanks for that. I want to make sure I do this right the first time and I can already see this is going to be incredible. Looking through more of your videos now :)

Thank you Scott! Mustache is a great training aid for those who haven't used it.

I'm taking advantage of the COVID mask requirements and letting mine grow longer than I'm used to wearing it. It's been on my lip since I was 15 and I'm 49 now. I've almost enough to handlebar it....Within the next couple of weeks it should have a nice flip to it.

At 38, I finally have enough facial hair to grow one. Facial hair like your brother in law at this point. Watched this video 6 weeks ago right when I started growing my first real mustache and dang...it helped. I 'trained' the hair with the tips and I think it worked. My hair lays to the side pretty well for the most part. I use a soft vegan pomade cut with a little bit of hot water rubbed in my hand to hold it. Nice. THANK YOU for the tips!

Thanks Scott Barnes!!

Useful. Thanks scotty, onya mate!

What a great video!! It helped me realize using a hair pomade would work better than stiffer mustache wax.

Jeah thanks man! just what i was looking for

I really enjoy your content man!

Some great advice there thank you - particularly the brushing. Cheers.

The long hair looks really good on you along with the beard man! I remember your beard video from 2014 when you had short hair. Keep on growin'. Cheers

This was really helpful. Thanks.

I like to recommend to newbies growing a mustache. Buy a Kent mustache comb. It's about $9.00. It's well worth the money. I've used one for over 35 years.

I never let my stache grow more than 3 weeks it would always drive me insane and I'd shave it off. Didn't know there was an awkward phase...now I'm ready!

Thank you for the tips. It's my first letting my facial hair grow out. I'm not sure how long I'm going to let it all grow out. I'm going to give it a shot though. Thanks once again your video helped me.

first mustache styling! right here! thanks!

scott -- thanks for your advice to emphasize the strong spots. my cheeks are really patchy and I don't think growth stimulators are going to do much -- but I try them anyway. I do however have a really strong growing chin that extends toward my neck and what I think will be a strong stache. im looking for more styling tips (ideas) for how to style just a chin beard and mustache.

I was like "Fucking Thor!!" Lmao

Thanks. Will try hair pomade as you say.

when chris evans and chris hemsworth have a child together

It’s my first time growing my mustache out and you’re right about it being difficult. Thanks for the advise 👍🏻

Cool video, very simple steps. Thank you for the great instructions. Happy November!!!

No Shave August = Successful Movember. My man!

Thanks, I got what I was looking for 👍🌷

I'm into the styling phase, because I didn't know there were phases. I'm starting here, though, because I'm sick of chewing on my damn stache.

Nice tip, thank you.

Thanks Scott, awesome video! you know, i had never thought about waxing it at night to help train the hairs...duh... great advice man. Keep up the great vids!

Good tips , Thanks

I suppose I’m not exactly a newb as regards facial hair, but I definitely am as regards anything other than the “wildman” look. I’m going to try out this training “jazz”. Up until a month or so ago I just trimmed my stache to keep it out of my mouth.

thanks very helpful

Growing the horseshoe moustache , getting funny looks downtown , people like it , others say get rid of it , but im not!! Part of my identity now! Seems to be a stigma against moustaches/ beards here in Ireland. Great video Scott ! BTW seems you have the Viking/Scandinavian DNA genepool , here in Ireland it's common for men to have brown hair with ginger colouring facial hair. Though i have the medium brown hair and facial hair with blue eyes.

great video thank you

Nice tips man

Thank you its really helpfull to me 👍

Thank I'm a fir timer and your video super helpful thank you

Your video was super helpful for me. Ever since I was able to grow facial hair I have been in the military and now that I am out I am catching up on how to do all this stuff. My facial hair I feel is super scraggly and I have been trying to figure out how to tame it. I use beard balm and oil I also have a stubble balm and beard shampoo and conditioner that I have been using to try and promote healthy growth. Yet my beard is still wild and uncontrollable. Any more advice would be greatly appreciated.

I’ve made it to week 3 for the first time. I usually get fed up and shave but I’m toughing it out. It’s just barely long enough to make tiny little tips on the ends I’ve always wanted a Wild West gunfighter type mustache so hopefully I make it all the way. I couldn’t find mustache wax anywhere so I got some honest Amish beard wax from wal Mart. Hopefully that will work ok??

Thanks dad!!

2019 moustache in the works ! thank you !

Good advice - I have a great beard and want to train the stache to complement it, hard to not rim but I see the wisdom . To be honest I could watch you talking about anything... :-)

Hopefully I can train mine. The ends naturally sweep outwards but everything under my bose grows down and curves to the middle.

Great video, thanks! What pomade would you recommend?

Good stuff!

Hey Scott, Small question. Been growing out my beard since November and got good volume, the cheeks are nicely filling in and stache is coming out solid ( All thanks to you and beard brand videos

Very nice video. Thumbs up!

Intense tunes brother

one month into my beard journey, this was very helpful

growing one myself..what ive learned is its more about letting the hair get long from the top down so you can shape it in one long swoop as it were..personally i like the iconic dali statche because its quite narrow/streamlined yet the ends are fantastically long, not a fan of growing a super thick statche - only to have the same handlebar effect, i'm guessing it has to do with the way you trim it AFTER its got the desired overall length/thickness,..not yet certain how i can achieve that because i know growing it long from the top means the statche is going to get thick/wide all over but then i dont want to trim everything very short and just let the ends get long either. Not sure how dali nailed it..could it be that he had a much higher stache line underneath the handlebars than most? in other words did he twirl it much higher up than those that twirled it , say at the border betweeen lower/upper lips? hints? Cheers.

Thanks, man. The video I was looking for. For some reason the green screen bug actually made the video feel more hanmade and personal)

Sure, straight hair...easy peasy!

I’m 71 years old and have a coarse curly white beard and mustache. I would love to have it straight and manageable. I’m trying to grow a beard with a heavy wide mustache. I started my mustache a month before starting my beard. I like the mustache to be the accent on top of my beard. I don’t have the heaviest or fullest of mustaches. I have a curly, coarse and wiry mustache the hairs stick straight up curly. I’ve tried wetting my moustache then use a hairdryer to straighten, also tried uppercut easy hold and Clubman Pinaud mustache wax, nothing seems to work. What would you recommend? I really like your videos. Thanks

Very helpful. My beard grows fast but that first month or month and a half...surviving it can be a challenge. Most helpful was having suggested we not trim the mustache because what you say is true, "little hairs" will always be there and the look is disappointing the result more disappointing because, at least in my case, I grow weary and shave. Once again, I am growing the full beard. You length and style of beard is what I prefer, nothing long but a moderate growth. I don't wish to look like Dave Letterman or Grisly Adams, nor even good old Walt Whitman. I have lines I wish to hide at 70 years of age; also, our "salt patch," as you have described the lip goatee part of a beard, I assume that is what you mean by salt patch, well...all of the beard when you are my age is salty. I have some brown and red still present in my beard and I rather like that. The challenge is always to let the beard grow. At my age I have also to be careful about how I dress. When I was a teenager I could wear anything and get away with it: jeans with a hole were fashionable, as they are today, especially when worn by attractive young women; I don't see older women in them, and men appear to be homeless; while growing the beard i have lived in fear of someone reaching out with a dollar in his or her hand. If humorous, and it is, it is also part of why some of us older guys don't grow beards. Okay, you have feedback and I complement you for not being long-winded about it but personal. Your comment on growing the mustache is of particular interest. I have no difficulty growing one; it is fashioning it, being patient, maintaining it, and not trimming it. Best to you, and yes, I have subscribed. Peace and good wishes, Nick Campbell, Atascadero, California.

Gor some stuff from badass beard care online. They have samples that are free you just pay for shilling. Grown it out off and on but this will be the first time i have actually styled it. Monday to be exact lol thanks for the tips Odin Son. 🤘

Could you recommend some beard and stash products?

Hello, Nice to see you again. Let your hair grow !! It's nice but the shorter hair is better for you. I hope to see you soon with a beautiful long mustache like the beard :-)

I noticed I have my granddads moustache so I'm gonna start settling it the way he always did

I came across an alternative to this method. I call it the 'get the fuck over how pretty your moustache is and get on with more important things' method. It's deadly!

I can't stop watching at your beard

Hairspray works better than pomade or wax and washes out waaaaay more easily. Best way to use it: using a moustache comb, spray hairspray into the comb and apply to your stache...while simultaneously using a blow drier. Do one side at a time for best results. DO NOT TRIM...EVER. If you trim once, you’ll always be trimming-the key is letting it grow.

I never knew being a man involved so much product

I'm ten days into my first tash, so tempted to shave.

Really important important I get this mustache right. Mine sticks out to far, not even dreadlock wax holds it. The other firemen are laughing at me

So I’m just really curious about what happens in November! Is there a mustache competition coming up?

Can you use a beard wax instead?

Can you do a video on shaping a circular beard

You sure make it easy on the eyes. Love the bluegrass banjo in the background.

Holy shit what a difference

Hey I had a question I started to grow out my beard for about 1 and 1/2 weeks and I have a small beard but my hairs are kinda light and you cant really see them and my beard just generally doesnt look good. Is there any way to tell if it is going to look good or should i just wait? Also because my hairs are light and hard to see unless you look close would that fix with time? Thanks

Obi Wan, Thor and Jesus had a baby and its you

Have had and abused stache for years. It was "just there" but it was never really a good looking stache because well have never been bothered. Wanna change that.

My beard no shit grows to where his is in just 4-5 weeks only much more thick and full. It's very thick and until now (31 yrs old) I've never wanted to grow it out because it can be quite painful to me and my old lady. I'm 8 weeks in and I'm already getting so many compliments and asked how long I've been at it. I can't even imagine 6 months from now it would be Gandalf style. I don't know why my hair and beard is so thick and grows so fast but every barber I've been too has been amazed and complimented the thickness and health of my hair (it's down past my shoulders) and said that straight shaving me was tough bc my beard was so thick and I'm so wiry. It still hurts if I don't condition it and put a liberal mount of oil on it 3 times a day. So for people out there wishing they had thick beards.... Don't be jealous because it's not very pleasant especially in the early stages.

See I wanna keep mine whenever the hell I get a thick enough mustache I wanna keep it trimmed not hairs going everywhere like most people but for now I'm 18 and beard gsme ok and mustache game kinds bad

I know im late to this vid but can anyone recommend good wax for beginners ?

What is qrong with white balance...

My son has a mustache and beard. Can’t get past the Wimpy (I’ll gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today) stage. It seems to stick straight out.

Couple more months it could be tombstone cool

The problem with me is that my mustache is my weak spot but everything else is strong. Oh well...

Thanks for this! RU-vid is full of wacky handlebar mustache barbershop quartet advice. If it's not that, it's the hipster wannabe man bun crowd. Yikes. Nice to have a straightforward video and advice on a basic neat well tailored styled beard. Again, thanks!

My beard grows perpendicular to my skin instead of growing downwards. What should I do?

That softspot in the moustache is a big problem for me XD

Oh hey Thor

The beard is kids play, the moustache is very hard for beginners

Nice beard and stache very nice

Man out here looking like Alex from Call of Duty

You look like “Arthur” from Red Dead Redemption 2 😅

What about your second mustache?

What if your mustache grow straight up

just started growing mine out on a whim a few weeks ago but it still looks shit. going to shave it off cause I can't represent.
