Imperial Mustache
The Imperial mustache is facial hair royalty—literally. This distinguished style features whiskers that grow from both the upper lip and cheeks, then curve dramatically upward like a well-trained butler's posture. It's the mustache equivalent of wearing a monocle and top hat to brunch.
