<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\nWhile your decision to grow or not to grow a mustache may be difficult to make, once you decide to do it, it\u2019s relatively easy to keep it groomed to professional standards. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Follow the following four principles for a meeting-ready mustache:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n- Keep it clean<\/strong><\/li>
- Keep it trimmed<\/strong><\/li>
- Keep it edged<\/strong><\/li>
- Keep it styled<\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n
<\/span>Keep it clean<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nKeeping your mustache clean for the office should be a no-brainer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Simply give your mustache a quick wash in the shower, and check in the mirror periodically to make sure it\u2019s free of foreign objects. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nSpaghetti-coated hairs from today\u2019s lunch aren\u2019t going to win you any brownie points.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/span>Keep it trimmed<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nThe one rule of thumb when wearing a mustache to the office is to keep it trimmed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Many grooming codes will dictate how far out a mustache can grow. Trim any stray, uneven hairs and make your \u2018mo as uniform as possible. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nDon\u2019t let wild hairs get in the way of your goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/span>Keep it edged<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nOnce the trimming is done, make sure your mustache, beard, or sideburns have super clean edges. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nThis shows impeccable attention to detail and conveys the idea of ‘if you can keep your facial hair in such great shape, imagine what you can do for our company.’ <\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/span>Keep it styled<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nA comb and a dab of styling product will keep your \u2018mo in place throughout the workday. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nDry, brittle hairs can draw unwelcome attention to your upper lip. Keep your mustache hydrated and in place with some beard oil and a touch of mustache wax.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
Gone are the days when facial hair was only an off-duty luxury. Mustaches and beards are now a common sight in the American workplace. But are they professional? A stand-alone mustache can be professional in a work environment so long as it appears intentional and well-groomed. Some companies are more accepting of evolving facial hair…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1574,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_kad_blocks_custom_css":"","_kad_blocks_head_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_body_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_footer_custom_js":"","_kad_post_transparent":"","_kad_post_title":"","_kad_post_layout":"","_kad_post_sidebar_id":"","_kad_post_content_style":"","_kad_post_vertical_padding":"","_kad_post_feature":"","_kad_post_feature_position":"","_kad_post_header":false,"_kad_post_footer":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[18,43],"tags":[],"taxonomy_info":{"category":[{"value":18,"label":"General Info"},{"value":43,"label":"Mustache"}]},"featured_image_src_large":["https:\/\/imustacheyoutoshave.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/can-a-mustache-be-professional_featured-1024x683.png",1024,683,true],"author_info":{"display_name":"Joshua Bartlett","author_link":"https:\/\/imustacheyoutoshave.com\/author\/joshuaebartlett\/"},"comment_info":0,"category_info":[{"term_id":18,"name":"General Info","slug":"general-info","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":18,"taxonomy":"category","description":"","parent":0,"count":80,"filter":"raw","cat_ID":18,"category_count":80,"category_description":"","cat_name":"General Info","category_nicename":"general-info","category_parent":0},{"term_id":43,"name":"Mustache","slug":"mustache","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":43,"taxonomy":"category","description":"","parent":0,"count":14,"filter":"raw","cat_ID":43,"category_count":14,"category_description":"","cat_name":"Mustache","category_nicename":"mustache","category_parent":0}],"tag_info":false,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/imustacheyoutoshave.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1558"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/imustacheyoutoshave.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/imustacheyoutoshave.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/imustacheyoutoshave.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/imustacheyoutoshave.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1558"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/imustacheyoutoshave.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1558\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/imustacheyoutoshave.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1574"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/imustacheyoutoshave.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1558"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/imustacheyoutoshave.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1558"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/imustacheyoutoshave.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1558"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
