Beardbrand / Design by Cristina Cianci The difference between a good mustache and a great one often boils down to one factor: The great one is styled. A good mustache might be bountiful on its own, but it lacks the intention and direction of a styled mustache—the same way someone can grow their hair out simply to show off the sheer volume and plenitude. That’s why we all have unique hairstyles: to put some intention and character in place. A mustache is no different, and it all starts with using mustache wax. Mustache wax helps hold those stubborn, bristly ’stache hairs in place. It also typically contains nourishing beeswax and oils, too, to help soften and strengthen each strand. Pair it...

Nevertheless, we went. We rode. It wasn't so much the scene at Sturgis as it was the culture, ripe with sexually dynamic Mustached Americana. I saw a side of my uncle in all of those who went -- a unique character who...

Welcome back for the exciting reveal of the 4th greatest mustache in Brewers history. This was a hotly debated decision. It felt wrong to not have him on the list, but at the same time we felt like his mustache maybe was less important than the man himself. Well, here we go: Robin Yount: (named AL MVP twice, and has 17th most hits in baseball history) LO: Colin and Lynda, why do you think Robin is 4th on this list?
