Fighting Cancer With ... Mustache!

Alex — Mon, 05 Oct 2009 20:31:06 +0000

Asylum blog brought to our attention not one, but two strangely awesome fundraising efforts benefiting cancer foundations. All you’ve got to do is grow a mustache (which is sadly one of those things I can’t do to save my life – darn these Asian genes!) and get people to donate:

Would you like to participate? You’ve got two choices:

1. Mustaches vs. Cancer starts October 5 and lasts for 56 days. Proceeds go to the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center.

2. Movember goes throughout November, with money raised benefiting prostate and testicular cancer foundations.

All you have to do is register with your charity of choice and ask friends and family to donate money to see pictures of you looking increasingly more awesome. If you decide to participate in either charity, check back in at Asylum later this month for free swag and contests. Also, whether or not you participate, you’re invited to the Stache Bash.

Mustachioed Horse

I can’t grow facial hair even if my life depended on it. Thanks to weak genetics, the most I’ve ever grown were mere stubbles, even after a week or two of not shaving.

And I think most horses share my predicament (or luck, depending your point of view) except for this one: Alfie, a 10-year-old Shire cross, not only has a ’stache … he’s also very proud of it!

The moustache may look somewhat incongruous given its fair colour compared to his black and white colouring and well-meaning staff thought he would rather be without it.

However Alfie clearly enjoys the look and groom Justine Greenslade said all efforts to clip it had been in vain. "He’s obviously rather proud of his facial hair," she said. "He runs a mile if he thinks we’re going to trim it."

Mustache Maker

Ever wondered what you would look like with a mustache? An application from Schick lets you add one to a picture and see. I know what I look like with a mustache (not a pretty sight), so I snagged a picture of Alex and gave him a handlebar. See a rather creepy moving version here. You can try out lots of different styles on your own picture (registration required). Link -Thanks, StreetAttack!

If you don’t want to go the hard way to find out how you would look with a mustache, Choe & Tomlinson offers an easier way with their self portrait mirrors.

Choose from pirate, mustache, antlers and other designs.
