My Handlebar Mustache Hack | Greg Berzinsky 

I didn’t have elmers so I used an industrial epoxy… I haven’t been able to open my mouth in three months. 😐 Kiddin’; great vid, great hack, great ‘stache, great job! 🙌

"rather extravagant ways" is an understatement. They form shapes with beards not even good architects can match.

I just started taking my mustache to competition this year. Now I am gearing up for the National Beard and Mustache Championships. Your videos have been super helpful in helping me hone my technique! I appreciate what you do!

Great video. I remember, as a punk rock kid, elmers glue was the secret to a sturdy mohawk. Next video will be about how to dye your beard with Kool-Aid ;)

Greg, STILL, One of the best Hacks...EVER!!! I Continue to use it Every Christmas Season!

Incredible ‘stache ! Thanks for showing us how it’s done.

now i can sniff glue all day, cool

I obtain the same result with a wax for hair. I think Beardbrand should change the formula of their wax, we want strong hold, not medium hold =)

Excellent improvisation!!

Thanks for the tip! I'm not much of a moustache person but willing to give this a try.

COMING SOON: Beardbrand Glue Stick - $20 REPLY

Bro, I'm a man in my early 40's & I enjoy your content quite a bit & always come always with a smile.. 🙏🏻🙏🏻 God bless brother

I uses Elmer's Blue School Glue for my hair for years, I totally dig using stick on the beard lol.

I have some wild hairs in my 'stache that I've never been able to tame. I might try the glue stick to finally tame them. Thanks for the tip!

Killer stache and beard!!!

DAAAAAMN. Great tips.

Wow! I would have never guessed. Going to beusing this the next time I want to really put my handlebars out there!

handsome chap ! Working on that type of mustache myself !

What a stud!

Epic hack, Greg!

Well I'm glad we got those straightened out.😅

Thanks 🙏

Great video man 👍 . You should rock that look all the time, you look good and up scale that way.

Perfection.

Thought I would hate it........ I love it

The Epic Moustache is Great ! Thanks Greg !

I'm lucky enough to just twist and train mine to look like this. I still wanna try the citrus products tho.

I KNEW IT! I've used since a year the solid soap to make the mustache stiff! I'll try with a nice flavoured glue ahahha

Very neat vid I found over the years for nice hold and really stiff ways to get the hair to hold well is a product called murrays pomade wax It's very inexpensive and comes in a nice size orange can. One can lasts about a year for me and costs typically around 3 bucks. It was typically designed for use on afros but once I was turned onto it by friends we have used it for years with great results The product I bet would work well for those curls too If my stache gets big enough I will have to try Thanks for sharing

Not surprised at all. As a young punk back in highschool, i used to use Elmer's gel glue to style my hair. The key aspect of it as well as the sticks, is that it's water soluble, so it dries hard, but it breaks down when you wet it.

Excelente video.

I would have never thought about using a glue stick. I love it.

You looked like Daniel Day Luis in that older photo from the competition.

WELL DONE, THANKS FOR THE 411 VERY INFORMATIVE, RAH! WELL DONE

Good sir

hey, for me the product from Recamier/Salon-In "Firming Pomade" works perfectly, I use it at the morning, after the shower, dry my beard and mustache, apply oil beard and balm and then this product to molding my curls; and at night my mustache still firm like a rock.

Holy Moustache Batman. Speechless. I've now seen it all.

Hey Greg, what product to you use in your hair? I haven't found anything that can hold mine as perfect as yours!

Glue stick uses PVP (polyvinylpyrrolidone), the same component hair spray and hair gel uses to stiffen the hair.

I like the handlebar curls, trying to get my bf to wear this look but not having much luck here :(

So THAT is the secret for the wild staches! Damn, this just blew my beard back.

Thumb's up buddy!

I do this 4 times a week and honestly, If I condition and take care of my hair in between it doesn't seem to suffer at all.

mind blown

THANK YOU, I have had an On again Off again relationship with Facial Hair. My wife and daughters like when I have a full beard. The reason for the On/Off relationship is not to try and piss off my wife or make my youngest daughter cry... (has happened) it's because I don't know where to go to get a proper trim and a few places that offer bird trims charge a lot... SO... I try and do it myself and I screw up so badly that I get pissed off and shave it all off to start again. Thing is I am getting older and the hair on my head and face take longer to grow so now I just let it grow wild. I stumbled onto your videos re: mustache curl and find them GREAT! I wish I knew about them earlier. heading over to your website to grab some product. (good thing I am running low on what I already have) I am curious. You mentioned that in competitions guys would try and cheer by bringing in beard hair with lip hair. with what I mentioned above, Hair is wild, and I fear self trimming. What techniques do you use to separate the two areas? Do you actually use a trimer to "PART" it or are you just training with a comb in two directions? Thanks again your look is what I have been trying to emulate and your videos are helping.

Silver Goat for real . 🐐🥇

Can you please tell me - Is it possible to dye a medium brown beard to salt&pepper? Love your videos. Thanks

badass

I never thought about putting glue into my beard. Looks really good, but I would might not get comfy with getting it into a state of beeing a rock.

You look like Zac Efron from the future. Great video! Thanks for the tips.

I think home made glue is very organic with no Oder I think cornstarch and sugar are one of the ingredients

Would the mustache wax you offer do a suitable job on a day to day basis?

For a full-on expedition moustache I styled mine with wax and then added barely diluted white PVA glue with an artists paintbrush. It sets clear and by jove my moustache was crispier than a starched shirt. It was jolly hard to remove, but for the more adventurous chap it's just the ticket when out exploring. Try it, and tally-ho.

not that it matters much but ive used elmers glue to put my mohawk up for over 10 years until they stopped selling it never had a problem with my hair

I was wondering how you did your mustache

I love to handle bar mine but I ride a motorcycle day to day

when & how do you take it off?

I made the big mistake of trimming my stash for the first 3 months of growing my beard and it’s now playing the catch-up name. I can just curl it now but I wish I would have never started trimming.

How do you effectively wash out the glue?

Sounds great does elmers wash out eas????

I really have a problem making handlebar moustache since my hair is too stiff and thick. Maybe the glue would help.

How do we wash it off!... Oil and shampoo?

Does glue dry out the hair?

I'm active duty AF and I know I'm pushing the limits right now. But, I'm working on growing my mustache to a length that I can put twists into it. Any tips on making this happen without "breaking" the rules (AFI 36-2903) which say hair cannot go past the top of the upper lip and past the natural lip line at the end of the mouth where the lips meet. Any tips?

That’s a hell-of-a-hack! I’ll have to give it a try.

Epic

Greg, that beard is boss as fuck!

Tried this and it worked great but my girlfriend told me there’s little chunks of glue left behind and they seem impossible to remove without ruining the shape of the stache, any tips?

That's badass! Now I just need to grow facial hair!

Okay looks great! But how do you remove the glue after?

I use curling irons. I have four sizes from 1/4" to 1", perfect curls in about 20 seconds per side. Finish with lanolin most days, wax occasionally if needed.

Clubman’s Wax in the tube, heated to a liquid while shaving is the best…dries hard as a rock and smells good

Hey Greg, question for you.. what do you do with a single hair that seems to have rotated in an off direction? I plucked one of my mustache hairs because it wasn't laying flat. I feel bad for having done this but want to know for next time how to handle hairs that just won't go with the flow of the rest. I had ok handlebars last year and I'm working my way back to them again.

How to get my mustache strong... I've seen my mustache hair falling off too often.. Tell me how to stop it...

You, sir, are a beautiful man. I love all your hair you got going on, it clearly has a lot of personality! If I could grow a mustache or beard, I'd totally rock it the way you do. Too bad I'm a woman and I only got one mustache hair.

Thanks for the video Greg, beard greg ------------->>>>>>>>>>> clean shaven greg

Sir what is glue name?

Ever try Got2B hair glue

Awesome video Greg, I cant wait to have my own handlebar curl mustache, I always wanted to have one.

Why not use gel instead?

Trying to do a handlebar mustache myself how long did it take for it to grow long enough to curl it’s been like a month for me it’s still filling in so far I got a lil curl very small but I can’t wait to get a curl like yours my man

My goal is to get my 'stache long enough to braid it. :D.

What product name mustaches wax name please?

Do you think that using hairspray on the mustache can damage it?

What mustaches glue name please I wana buy it

Donde quedó la otra chica

I used to use a glue stick in my handlebar. It works great, but I noticed it lightens the hair.

I like mine handlebared

How do you then, remove it?

Does that glue stick wash out well?

damnnn, your handlebars! handlebars look better than the laid back style of the stache.

I did this in kindergarten without a beard

I use superglue for solid results.

did you color your hair? or is it just the contrast?

I have never found a product combo and technique that holds up a big curl. I'm going out now to buy a glue stick and try this.

What does sea salt do for the hair? Stiffens when dry?

Fancy

Holly shat this man is gorgeous!

Almost every elder here in Finland has a mustache or beard. Mustache mostly

Just because something has "chemicals" in it doesn't automatically mean it's bad. Water is a chemical.
