How to Do a Flairstache Mustache
If you’re into throwback looks, the Flairstache is one you should consider. Flared sideburns help deliver the retro coolness.
How to Do the Flairstache Mustache Step-by-Step
-
1
Grow your beard for 1 to 2 weeks, or until you have a good amount of hair growth.
-
2
As your sideburns become more visible, use your Wahl trimmer to create a lower border at your desired length by trimming a defined, horizontal line at the bottom. This line should be somewhere between your ear lobes and your chin to achieve the flared appearance.
-
3
Keep your mustache and Soul Patch, and shave your cheeks, chin and neck clean.
-
4
Your mustache should extend just beyond the outside of your top lip and reach just under your nose. You’ll also want to shave a small gap at the middle of your lip to separate the right side from the left side.
-
5
If you prefer a blocked shape sideburn, trim an angled line from the top of the sideburn to the wider bottom edge. If you would like a swooping curved design, use a Wahl trimmer to create a sloping line from your ear to the tip of your sideburn that follows the natural upper border of your beard.
