From pirates to playboys to Village People, there are as many types of mustaches as there are types of men—but all of them need a good trim every once in a while.

To complete this How-To you will need:

A pair of grooming scissors
A fine-toothed mustache comb
A mirror
A sink or basin
Some water
An electric mustache trimmer (optional)

Step 1: Dampen mustache

Slightly dampen your mustache with water. You don't need much, just a bit.

Step 2: Comb mustache

Comb your mustache with a fine-toothed comb in the direction that it grows.

Step 3: Trim for shape

Trim first for shape and definition. Clip across the bottom of your mustache, giving it a smooth even line, and clip along the outer edges to give it distinctive parameters.

Tip: If you're using a mustache trimmer, start with a setting that will clip the least amount of hair. You can always go back and trim more, but trimming too much will trash your 'stache.

Step 4: Trim for length

Now trim for length and bushiness. Start at the middle of your mustache, and begin lightly trimming out to the edges.

Tip: Mustache hair is tougher than other facial hair, so trim just a little bit at a time for better results.

Step 5: Comb mustache

Comb through your mustache one last time, clip any hairs you may have missed, and wink at the macho man in the mirror.
