MOvember MOstache Madness
PRIZE:
1st Place $50 goes to best overall (Best in Show)
2nd Place $20 goes to the most creative/original
3rd Place $10 goes to worst, most pathetic mustache
GUIDELINES:
It is acceptable to grow a full beard in order to conceal your prize winning moostache’, but on the DAY OF JUDGEMENT the beard has got to go!
You must follow these rules:
1.It’s gotta be the real deal. No fake Mo’s.
2.There is no joining the Mo to the side burns (that’s a beard)
3.There is no joining of the Mo handlebars on the chin (that’s a goatee)
*a small complimentary growth under the bottom lip is allowed (aka the tickler)
JUDGING:
The judging will consist of a points system. Points will be given in the following categories. Fullest, Best Groomed, Most Artistic, Most Sophisticated, and lastly, just plain Dirty
*extra points will be rewarded to those who keep a daily photo diary of their progress.
*The judges will consist of a five person panel to be left secret until the day of judging.
We will begin on Novermber 1st, but The DAY OF JUDGEMENT is on MOvemebr 30th!!
You must have your final picture of moostachicity emailed, twitterd, txt’d, or facebook’d to me by 11:59pm, Movember 30th, or you will be disqualified.
REGISTRATION:
I’ve decided that along with having some fun, we can raise some money for a good cause.
I have family members and friends who have suffered from prostate cancer, so I know how scary and serious it is. What many people don’t know is that 1 in 6 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime and that testicular cancer is the most common cancer in men aged 18-35. So join in the fight with me by growing a Moustache this Movember! (the month formerly known as November.) Our commitment is to grow a moustache all November to change the face of men’s health.
Please make a small donation to our team.
The funds we raise during our Moustache journey go to the Prostate Cancer Foundation and the Lance Armstrong Foundation (LIVESTRONG).
There is no fee to enter my contest, but in order to join this competition you must sign up to be a part of my Movember Team:

MoSTACHE POINTERS & TIPS:
1. Mental Preparation
Growing a mustache entails a lot of responsibility. You can’t just walk around willy-nilly like it doesn’t mean anything. The mustache must become you, and you must become the mustache. Embracing everything about the lifestyle and representing everything that wearing a mustache embodies must be your utmost concern.
2. Physical Preparation
Take a look in the mirror. Do you look good enough to wear a mustache? If you don’t think so, or if you think that this is a joke – stop reading and get back to work. If you ever said to yourself, “Chuck Norris is the baddest mutha trucker in the world!” then you’re ready.
3. Maintenance
Proper maintenance of your mustache is essential. We suggest a small mustache comb, used twice daily in a comb-like fashion? Anyone serious about the mustache will realize combing is mandatory. A daily shampooing will give your mustache a luxurious sheen and a beautiful glow.
4. Networking
Your new mantra should be "The mustache is where it’s at." It’s time to start a revolution. Look around you. It may seem like you’re surrounded by virgin-lipped, closed-minded bald-facies. Don’t lose hope; others like you exist, but they’re afraid to show themselves – just like you. Seek them out; working together you will have confidence. Get out there, network: mustache unions are forming all over the country, from Los Angeles to New York! The more you show yourself, the more others will do the same. You know it’s right, you know it’s natural. Be wild, be free.
5. Accessories
No matter what you say, the mullet is the perfect compliment to your mustache. A Trucker's Cap also compliments the mustache quite nicely. The Mustache Era is upon us. Abercrombie is about to prove it. So stop shaving your lip. Grow a mustache and stop making fun of others for sporting one.
