Many of us kilted brethren sport some kind of facial hair, be it beards, mustaches, goatees (van dykes), mutton chops, etc...

mkmound and I remarked on Rex Tremende's fantastic mustache the other day, and we both were curious how he did it.

So Rex, got any tips of mustache grooming and training? I've tried mustache wax (clubman, in a tube) but it didnt seem to work. I could slather it on and get it to go sideways a bit, but it always straightened back out again.

Does it need to be a certain length, or should some softening agent be used to reduce stiffness?

What about the rest of you guys? General facial hair tips and tricks to post?
