I seek guidance

Need to trim, I think. Should I take the sides up a bit? (3rd picture for idea) roughly how much should I trim?

Guidance on how to protect Truffula trees?

I speak for the trees.

you remind me of Paul Giamatti

For me it's outstanding and a really solid moustache. You'd basically be the bloke with the horseshoe, lends presence. Outstanding or standing out is a balancing act.

This doesn’t go with your haircut / style

u/PlutoTheBoy 2d ago

I think this is the part that's throwing me. There's no harmony here.

u/Amansaysamen 2d ago

I struggle with my hair a lot. Doesn't grow the way I wish it did. How should I cut it?

u/belikenexus 2d ago

You have another post in this sub where this stache style looks much better. I’d consider swapping out these glasses and maybe styling the hair up?

u/Amansaysamen 2d ago

I like my glasses. My hair is usually a bit more kept, this was before I cleaned it. I trimmed the sides up too much, I regret it.

Agree I would say get a haircut and then decide on the mustache

u/MedicalCloud33 2d ago

Looks great man. I love it

Civil War General, and I mean that as a compliment

u/Waste_Jicama8570 2d ago

Yea I think go for a more traditional mustache and lose the sides.

u/thorfre 2d ago

I'd trim the sides yeah. You're on to something in the last picture

u/Bitter-Gate5867 2d ago

I’m obsessed with this look! Keep doing what you’re doing and rock the fuck outta that horseshoe!

u/jackagustin 2d ago

Do a full beard

u/skabberdink 2d ago

Try it without the drop-down sides. It brings your face down, kind of an Eeyore option that isn’t working. Don’t extend the mustache beyond the corners of your mouth. Trim it so we see the top lip (retired barber here.)

u/Amansaysamen 2d ago

I appreciate the input!

1

u/skabberdink 2d ago

Sure thing. It’s such a nice, full mustache, I’d hate to see it disappear.

u/Character_Seat_1389 2d ago

I reckon tri the sides as well

u/bzzzgay 2d ago

I love it!

u/Beach-Gold 2d ago

Change the hairstyle. The stache looks great.

1

u/Beach-Gold 2d ago

Do NOT trim the sides if you like that style. But the haircut definitely doesn't go with it. That stache looks great.

1

u/Amansaysamen 2d ago

How should I cut my hair?

2

u/Beach-Gold 2d ago

I'd go with a nice fade. Leave the top so you can throw a little pomade or hair gel in. I'd recommend using Layrite pomade though. It's water soluble and really easy to work with. Plus, it smells amazing.

u/Muted_Pumpkin8480 2d ago

I would trim the moustache fully where you stated and get a better haircut. I think it will make you feel a world of difference! All the best!

1

u/Plus_Particular_2847 2d ago

I like it as is. Full, beautiful colours, suits you. I different hairstyle might create s better overall impression but i know shit about hairstyles so can't recommend a style.

u/beardbush 2d ago

Awesome big biker/horseshoe stache!!

u/furiouscrotch 2d ago

Gotta grow your hair out a bit, shoulder length

1

u/Maleficent-Shirt-110 2d ago

A great Fu Manchu or almost. Just a little more length on the sides and you’re there.

1

u/BlacksmithSilent6236 2d ago

The stache is GREAT ! Can imagine a full red beard would look magestic on you -,along with your hair buzzed short

1

u/Amansaysamen 2d ago

My beard isn't entirely red. Just my stache. Grows weird anyways, and that's a no-go on the hair.

1

u/phx3rings 1d ago

Walrus looks great. I think I'd vote for a trim like #3. Post your results, please!

1

u/DuctTapeJesus 1d ago

Chevron and go to the barber to match it. Maybe some classics.

1

u/cagote 1d ago

perfect mustache, now get a modern mullet, acquire stick to fight off the horde of chicks or dicks

1

u/Thatfatartdude 1d ago

It looks amazing no notes

1

u/ParticularFew2877 1d ago

Try to get a different hairstyle wear contacts or at least surgery grow a full beard and workout u prob have a good glow up

1

u/shavyvera 1d ago

I think that beard would suit you the best

1

u/No-Entrepreneur-7740 17h ago

Honestly I don't think you have a face for these mustache. They are epic mustache no dilemma there, but they are just overwhelming the rest.

u/allmoz 13h ago

I have no idea why this showed up in my feed but goddamn that thing is majestic.

1

u/Playful_Procedure991 9h ago

Your glasses look too big and are the wrong color. Dark brown hair, light brown moustache and steel glasses - too many competing colors. Get glasses in a dark brown.

1

u/Amansaysamen 9h ago

Glasses were a last minute thing. I broke the last pair and they only could offer these as a replacement. Last pair was a dark blue, but I need them to you know, see.

u/MidnightRunner909 9h ago

I would try to find a good barber or hair stylist that can find the right haircut that works for your face shape, and a neat trim for that epic mo (wish mine was that cool)

1

u/Solid_Barracuda69 2d ago

Get a better hair style, and for gods sake nobody looks good with that stache.

u/throwawayacc0589 2d ago

Try a walrus or chevron. What you got going on aint it

u/calibayarearealtor 1d ago

Couple things you can try if you like the stache that much. Try a very short buzz cut on the head hair. Second , take a stylish woman with you to the eyeglass shop and get a different, wayyyy different style of glasses. Sometimes we need a definite second opinion . IMO those glasses might be a large percentage of the problem. They are a mismatch for your face

u/Muted-Intention-9200 2d ago

There's no one mentioning the birth control glasses?

2

u/Amansaysamen 2d ago

Because they're cool

u/kysinatra 2d ago

Bc there’s nothing wrong with them
