Movember Must-Haves: Essential Grooming Tips for Your Best Moustache

November is more than just the start of winter; it's also the month dedicated to Movember, the global initiative that raises awareness for men’s health issues like prostate cancer, testicular cancer, and mental health. It’s a time to grow, groom, and proudly showcase that moustache! We spoke with Yazan Sadoud, co-owner at soon-to-launch Chaps & Co Vida Creek Beach, to get expert advice on how to keep your mustache looking sharp throughout Movember and beyond. Here are five essential tips for mustache maintenance that’ll help you make a stylish statement while supporting a great cause.

Start with a Clean Slate

According to Yazan, the first step to a great moustache is cleanliness. "Keeping your moustache clean is crucial, not just for appearance but for its overall health," he says. "Use a gentle, moisturizing face wash daily—something made specifically for facial hair. It’ll help remove dirt without stripping away those natural oils you need." A clean base makes a big difference in styling, he explains, as it’s easier to groom and keeps your moustache soft and healthy.

Master the Trim

While trimming at home works for regular maintenance, Yazan emphasizes the importance of seeing a professional. "A good trim every 2-3 weeks really helps to keep your moustache in shape and prevents overgrowth," he advises. A barber can also help you find the best style to suit your face. "At-home trimming is great, but a professional touch-up makes a world of difference, and they can teach you techniques to keep things neat between visits."
