My Handlebar Mustache Hack | Greg Berzinsky

[@joehansen9826]

I didn’t have elmers so I used an industrial epoxy… I haven’t been able to open my mouth in three months. 😐 Kiddin’; great vid, great hack, great ‘stache, great job! 🙌

[@EdwardsRobert86]

I just started taking my mustache to competition this year. Now I am gearing up for the National Beard and Mustache Championships. Your videos have been super helpful in helping me hone my technique! I appreciate what you do!

[@JoseMora-wc5zz]

That’s badass man!

[@magnoliamike]

Wow that actually works lol Who would’ve thought Elmers glue stick

[@jimhunt9187]

Greg, STILL, One of the best Hacks...EVER!!! I Continue to use it Every Christmas Season!

[@shilpanduttaZenLife]

"rather extravagant ways" is an understatement. They form shapes with beards not even good architects can match.

[@BerzinskyRules]

Some hire a structural engineers to verify that spans are safe with human use.

[@shilpanduttaZenLife]

Hats off to them

[@indridcold1712]

Great video. I remember, as a punk rock kid, elmers glue was the secret to a sturdy mohawk. Next video will be about how to dye your beard with Kool-Aid ;)

And I usedcto iron my hair to make my Mohawk pin strait

[@blg020]

Hell yes. I was rocking a 11.5 inch purple mohawk. 7 spikes from front to back.

[@blg020]

Did you ever try Knox unflavored gelatin. It was a little stiffer than the Elmer s glue. Only thing for me was the Elmer s washed out easier and the gelatin made like little balls all over your mohawk like on a wool coat.

[@99problemstoysaint1]

Bro, I'm a man in my early 40's & I enjoy your content quite a bit & always come always with a smile.. 🙏🏻🙏🏻 God bless brother

[@Keyboardbeatz]

now i can sniff glue all day, cool

[@BerzinskyRules]

LOL

[@uadimwit]

I know thos was tongue in cheek, but I was in high school with a guy that got on the bus with a bottle of Elmer's, shoving it up his nose and inhaling deeply. I asked what he was doing, and he replied "This stuff'll get you high, man." To which i responded, "That's Airplane Glue. All that stuff will do is give you sticky boogers." True story.

[@MC0Nike]

I obtain the same result with a wax for hair. I think Beardbrand should change the formula of their wax, we want strong hold, not medium hold =)

[@Shepherdstudio1]

oh ok what kind of wax do you use

[@73N5H1]

I use Peckerhead wax, very strong hold

[@diegokurokun]

The hair glue works too. Noo too gentle with the hair but in an event your mustache won't move an inch

[@73N5H1]

Not surprised at all. As a young punk back in highschool, i used to use Elmer's gel glue to style my hair. The key aspect of it as well as the sticks, is that it's water soluble, so it dries hard, but it breaks down when you wet it.

[@anamericaninbusan9389]

I have some wild hairs in my 'stache that I've never been able to tame. I might try the glue stick to finally tame them. Thanks for the tip!

[@deltabeta5527]

You can try hair gel. It's less toxic than glue

[@Pwnopolis]

I uses Elmer's Blue School Glue for my hair for years, I totally dig using stick on the beard lol.

[@mechanicallydev4536]

Glue stick uses PVP (polyvinylpyrrolidone), the same component hair spray and hair gel uses to stiffen the hair.

[@CopyCatGarage]

THANK YOU, I have had an On again Off again relationship with Facial Hair. My wife and daughters like when I have a full beard. The reason for the On/Off relationship is not to try and piss off my wife or make my youngest daughter cry... (has happened) it's because I don't know where to go to get a proper trim and a few places that offer bird trims charge a lot... SO... I try and do it myself and I screw up so badly that I get pissed off and shave it all off to start again. Thing is I am getting older and the hair on my head and face take longer to grow so now I just let it grow wild. I stumbled onto your videos re: mustache curl and find them GREAT! I wish I knew about them earlier. heading over to your website to grab some product. (good thing I am running low on what I already have) I am curious. You mentioned that in competitions guys would try and cheer by bringing in beard hair with lip hair. with what I mentioned above, Hair is wild, and I fear self trimming. What techniques do you use to separate the two areas? Do you actually use a trimer to "PART" it or are you just training with a comb in two directions? Thanks again your look is what I have been trying to emulate and your videos are helping.

[@jtsherrod1]

Incredible ‘stache ! Thanks for showing us how it’s done.

[@malcolmlarri9073]

handsome chap ! Working on that type of mustache myself !

[@scnason1300]

Very neat vid I found over the years for nice hold and really stiff ways to get the hair to hold well is a product called murrays pomade wax It's very inexpensive and comes in a nice size orange can. One can lasts about a year for me and costs typically around 3 bucks. It was typically designed for use on afros but once I was turned onto it by friends we have used it for years with great results The product I bet would work well for those curls too If my stache gets big enough I will have to try Thanks for sharing

[@AxGryndr]

I tried this an just didn't feel like I got a good hold.

[@jessie4pink615]

I like the handlebar curls, trying to get my bf to wear this look but not having much luck here :(

[@matthiashepworth6583]

For a full-on expedition moustache I styled mine with wax and then added barely diluted white PVA glue with an artists paintbrush. It sets clear and by jove my moustache was crispier than a starched shirt. It was jolly hard to remove, but for the more adventurous chap it's just the ticket when out exploring. Try it, and tally-ho.

[@SvinTheViking]

How did you get it all out sir?

[@matthiashepworth6583]

@@SvinTheViking Hot soapy water, and a metal moustache comb. It did pinch a bit, but was only used for special occasions.

[@joey_outdoors]

Hey Greg, question for you.. what do you do with a single hair that seems to have rotated in an off direction? I plucked one of my mustache hairs because it wasn't laying flat. I feel bad for having done this but want to know for next time how to handle hairs that just won't go with the flow of the rest. I had ok handlebars last year and I'm working my way back to them again.

[@ytsn_THE_OG]

I just keep nipping the end off while continuing to curl it in the desired direction. It usually sorts itself out, but it will look funny for a little while. It's all about patience. Mine's been growing for months and I haven't come close to completely training it. But I'm always making progress with it. I have a couple/few wild hairs that just stick out randomly lol

[@Mr420NinjAFTW]

I pluck these little bastards, then show the plucked corpse of a hair to the rest of the stache so they know to keep in line...

[@samivellamo3995]

Well I'm glad we got those straightened out.😅

[@caseybledsoe770]

You looked like Daniel Day Luis in that older photo from the competition.

[@Ralphinsc]

Wow! I would have never guessed. Going to beusing this the next time I want to really put my handlebars out there!

Epic hack, Greg!

[@chrisward3110]

Hey Greg, what product to you use in your hair? I haven't found anything that can hold mine as perfect as yours!

[@MrBiggz_o7]

I do this 4 times a week and honestly, If I condition and take care of my hair in between it doesn't seem to suffer at all.

[@ering1107]

You, sir, are a beautiful man. I love all your hair you got going on, it clearly has a lot of personality! If I could grow a mustache or beard, I'd totally rock it the way you do. Too bad I'm a woman and I only got one mustache hair.

Do you think that using hairspray on the mustache can damage it?

[@MrTShbib]

Pertosa98 I would never spray something like that near my face especially near my mouth. Also, when you eat and drink, it’s inevitable you will be eating hairspray too, not cool. There are so many other, more natural options. Even the glue stick is made safe for kids and is not toxic.
