Beyond gatherings for the culmination of Mustache May, Cinco de Mustache and like events, there has been a recent uptick in festivities dedicated to the 'stache.   Mustache parties are on the grow in cities across America.  

Whether the shindig is an event in celebration of a particular mo (think birthday party) or dedicated to mustaches everywhere, I see this as a move in the right direction. Here at the American Mustache Institute we support every opportunity for Mustached Americans to share their affinity for the lip sweater with family and friends, especially those suffering from B.U.L.D. (Bear Upper Lip Disorder).  

The crux of any good mustache party is that EVERYONE in attendance must don a lip sweater.  While  AMI would never recommend sporting fake whiskers in place of growing the real deal, we understand that everything has its place.  That being said, most hosts supply a set of fake mustaches for the ladies in attendance so they can experience a glimpse of the glory.  In the event that any of your male friends are sans mustache, I suggest you give them one of two options:  Begin the  road to cultivation and show what they grow on the night of the event or join us ladies and sport a falsie.

Be it Handlebars, Walrus, Pencil or Chevron, mustaches of all shapes and sizes should be welcome.  Guests can read up on different stylings of the 'stache and pick one that accentuates their personality.

So get your mustache ready, call your friends and get partying because a mustache is a terrible thing to waste.
