It's a start, but there's a long road ahead.

At the beginning of this summer, I started growing my Johnny Depp facial hair again.  At some point, I decided it would be awesome to have a handlebar mustache.

I really have no idea what I'm doing, and there are surprisingly (or not) few resources on the interwebs that discuss this topic.  I realize that at some point I will need to regularly use mustache wax, and I need to comb it to get the hair going in the right direction.  Other than that, I'm just winging it.  Some guy online said that he had been growing his for a year and a half!  I'm not sure I have that dedication, but I'd say things are promising.  Tonight I tried using a little wax to form some points.  I was pleasantly surprised at the results.  I believe I'll fix it up for work tomorrow.

On a side note, I'd like to thank whoever took this beautiful picture with my camera.  A picture really can say a thousand words...

Sam - I suppose I'm going for the handlebar, but the Guy Fawkes is sweet (and perhaps more easily attained) also.

Akemi - Thanks! I've actually had quite a few positive comments about it. My grandma loves it!
