Get ready to see a whole lot of skimpy 'staches in the coming days—Movember is nigh! The annual November-long men's cancer awareness and fundraising event is simple and fun: Men start on November 1st with a clean face and then spend the rest of the month growing the best moustache they can while persuading friends to pay for their public embarrassment (donations are accepted in general, for single 'staches, and for team efforts). After all, growing a moustache is a much easier way to raise awareness than going for a long walk or run. Stylish, too!
Month Of Movember Means Mass-Moustache Mania

Coney Island Beard and Moustache Competition 2010
For your viewing pleasure, here are a few photos from the 3rd Annual Coney Island Beard and Moustache Competition which went down on Saturday. Awards were given out for categories including Best Styled Moustache, Best Moustache Natural, Best Beard Style, Best Beard Natural, Best Fake (or real!!) Female, Best in Show and the coveted Worst in Show. This guy took home a fez for sorting the "best styled moustache," this gentleman had the Best Beard Natural, and Flavorwire reports that this guy was totally robbed.
It's a Beard-Off!
Last night the 2009 NYC Beard & Moustache Championships went down at Public Assembly in Williamsburg. The hairy set, and those who love them, were out in full force sporting everything from magnificent muttonchops to classic '70s porn 'staches. While competitions like this have been going on for years, certain facial hair looks are even more in fashion now with the popularity of recession chic on the rise. The winner of one prize even began growing his beard after being laid off five months ago as a financial broker, according to the Daily News. Wonder how many of the 80 contestants shaved this morning?
