The Men's Moustache Fashion

The 40 Sexiest Moustaches

Few leading men dare sporting a 'stache, but when they do, their sex appeal seems to increase tenfold. From Tom Selleck's iconic whiskers to model Matthieu Charneau's peach fuzz, which of these men can claim to have the sexiest facial hair?

1920's

Here’s your chance to look like one of those black and white photographs of Hollywood stars from the late 1920s and 1930s. Think early-Gable, William Powell and Doug Fairbanks. For these titans of the vintage silver screen, the moustache was not a great bush or an extravagant handlebar but a subtle sliver, carefully trimmed. Its effect was that of two small paintbrushes, with the tips well sharpened, either side of the filtrum. Ideal for those who favour the inter-war look with short and slick haircuts.

1940's

The clean shaven look was most popular and became habit as soldiers were expected to keep head and facial hair to a minimum to prevent ticks, fleas and nits. Moustaches were in and came in many styles. The short back and sides was by far the hairstyle of choice for men and a regular visit to the barbers was a must. A comb could be found in the inner jacket pocket of any self respecting gentleman and Brylcreem tamed hair into a neat and wearable style – usually side parted or with a small front quiff.

The Beatles

The Beatles influence on men’s hair started in the early 1960s with their shaggy “moptop” style. A few years later they went all hippie, influencing men to grow their hair and sparking the trend for facial hair.

1970's

Men’s hair in the seventies was a joy to behold. There was a little bit of variation throughout the decade, from long to short, blow-dried and bouffant to spiked and bleached, with “overgrown” being the look that most people associate with the decade.

Hairstyling and grooming was no longer simply for women – hair products were now marketed to men, and many happily used them.

Moustaches and mutton chops were in, even fake facial hair was worn and accepted. It was a hairy decade!

Moustaches were thick and full. One popular style was the horseshoe, where the hair extends down the side of the mouth (possibly inspired by the Fu Manchu moustache).

Now the craze of the tash is anything however beards are seemingly in at the moment...

Brad Pitt forgoes his usual scruffy look in favour of a well-groomed moustache at the BMI Film Fest.

Breaking Bad’s Bryan Cranston channels Clark Gable with an old-fashioned ‘stache.

Beards and goatees are typically excluded from Movember but Ryan Reynolds’ goatee is perfectly shaped and defined (which is the best way to don facial hair). The 38-year-old actor and face of L’Oréal’s Men Expert line has long ago ditched his clean-cut, fresh-faced look in favour of a sexier salt-and-pepper goatee.
