Trim top of mustache. Movember? Put Your “Mo” on Show in November! Hill of Tara

If you are planning to visit Ireland in November, don’t be surprised to see men proudly sporting their moustache. It’s officially a “No Shave November” month across the country, appropriately referred to as Movember! Movember style guide 2015.

If it’s your first time hearing about it, it’s a rapidly growing global charity-based movement encouraging men to grow out their moustache’s with the goal of raising funds and promoting awareness for prostate and testicular cancer. Movember first started in Ireland back in 2008, and presented a fun, hip way men could participate in funding cancer research while giving them the perfect excuse to feel uber grizzly and simply put their best moustache on display.

However, the concept actually dates back 2003 and was introduced by Adam Garone, along with three others, who encouraged a small group of 30 men to grow their moustache’s as a fundraiser for men’s health. Today, this very campaign takes place regularly in over 20 countries across the globe with more than one million participants – both men and women.

So how about taking part in this tradition and letting your ‘stache’ go wild while promoting men’s health? Go ahead and wear your ‘stache’ like a badge honor!
