Well, according to Wikipedia the American version is Mustache. But if I was a Man,though I'm not and rather content and complete with that reality. But if was a Man, I would prefer to have a Moustache rather than a Mustache. A Mustache, in my opinion sounds kinda dull and takes out the mysteriousness and complexity of the Moustache. So for the sake of not wanting my blog to sound Dull , in this post we will refer to the Mustache as Moustache.

Yesterday, my husband I spent sometime visiting his humorous Grandparents. While we were enjoying our visit, we starting discussing the fact that there are so many types of Moustaches! His grandfather Walter, happens to have this very AWESOME and DISTINCT Moustache. Which impeccably fits his personality.My husband and I decided upon Walter's mustache being called the the HOOK just like the pillow pictured below , but antiqued in a Silver tone.
Apparently ,there exist many different kinds of Moustaches to fit every Mr.'s personality.There's the Chevron, similar to the one adorned by the famous Mr. Tom Selleck.

You also have the Natural, a Moustache that may be styled without any aids, the Horseshoe, The Toothbrush famously and horribly worn by Adolf Hitler,The Handlerbar and for the really creative Mr.Folk ,there's the Freestyle which is a moustache that does not match other classification.

History
Shaving with stone razors was technologically possible from Neolithic times, but the oldest portrait showing a shaved man with a moustache is an ancient Iranian (Scythian) horseman from 300 BC.
In Western cultures women generally avoid the growth of facial hair; though some are capable, the majority of these women use some form of depilation to remove it. In rare circumstances, women may choose to embrace this growth, often in the form of thin moustaches. Mexican artist Frida Kahlo famously depicted herself in her artwork with both a moustache and a unibrow. This tradition is followed by some contemporary women in the arts.
