Thread: Mustache wax suggestions please!

I don't see a particular place to post all things related to mustaches...so I will try it here.

I have had a Mustache since my late teens which makes my mustache about 40 years old. I have shaped it differently over the years, but for the last five years at least I am sporting a "Monopoly Man" moustache. I have been using a home made balm of Shea butter and coconut oil for conditioning and Badger Mustache Wax for styling. And generally I am pleased. I recently was browsing through some of my favourite online wet shaving stores and I noticed a number of new Mustache wax offerings. What do you use? Are you pleased with how it is working for you? I would like to try something new...any suggestions?

Forty years ago I had a handlebar mustache and used Pinuad. Worked alright, and wasn't repugnant to me, or to anyone else. When I switched to the Clark Gable pencil mustache I gave up the wax. That the only one I ever tried though.

I too have had a Mo for over 40 years, most of the time in short trim.

Movember motivated me to grow it out, and with that the quest for something to shape/hold it...



I will not go through the list, for it is long...
But this is what works, shocking well, for me.


In the US you can get four tubes for under $3....almost anywhere.

This sir is an excellent idea! I tried pinaud and it just did not hold anything, I am giving this a shot though

The American Gentleman Soap Co. from chopsbarbershop.com or thestache.com.

Good ole bacon grease! Tc

I use Penhaligon's Bayolea mustache wax.

I use Brooklyn Grooming. It's an organic product, like all of my shaving creams and after shaves.

I used Penhaligons for a while.. great stuff. It's a little softer then the Brooklyn Grooming. Both have really good hold. I use a little hot water on the BG wax to soften it.. not necessary with the Penhaligons. The BG Commando is unscented which is nice if you just want to smell your cologne.
