A moustache is a strip of facial hair that grows above the upper lip. It can vary in style, length, and thickness, and is often groomed to create different looks. Moustaches have been worn by men throughout history and can symbolize various cultural or personal identities. Different styles of moustaches include the handlebar, chevron, and pencil moustache. Some people choose to grow a moustache for fashion, while others may do so for cultural or religious reasons. Moustaches can also be part of a larger beard or facial hair style.
