Mustache is not just a secondary sexual characteristic. This piquant detail also has a decorative function, and Mustache fashion accompanies different periods of history. Even the great Russian emperor Peter I ordered the boyars to shave their beards and leave their mustaches.
Many men think that women are simply crazy about this. And not without reason – this is confirmed by inexorable sociology. It is not surprising that the mustache has served as an adornment for many iconic figures in the history of mankind. From subtle to eccentric, from walrus to toothbrush, this compilation features the most famous barbels of all time.
Clark Gable
In 1938, one of the American beauty salon managers named Gloria Bristol decided to conduct a curious experiment. She asked 1,000 men and 1,000 women to name the five most handsome men in their opinion. Both those and others unconditionally and unanimously chose the leader. They became the king of Hollywood, Clark Gable. He is not only a talented actor and a handsome man, his neat, stylish mustache gives his face a special nobility. Mustache or not, Gable has always been the center of attention.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The famous German thinker, philologist, poet, and musician Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche is one of the most famous philosophers of all time. His works greatly influenced the development of philosophical, ethical, literary, and artistic thought of the 20th century. During his lifetime, his work was underestimated, but later, he became truly the master of the thoughts of entire generations. Pragmatists, existentialists, postmodernists, and nihilists relied on his books. At one time, Nietzsche was one of the youngest tenured professors of classics at the University of Basel. His students remembered the future great thinker and philosopher as a giant with a mustache.
Mark Twain
Mark Twain is the pseudonym of Samuel Langhorne Clemens (1835-1910). World-famous American writer and satirist. Many call him “the greatest satirist ever created by the United States.” Mark Twain, moreover, certainly has one of the greatest mustaches ever created by the United States.
Salvador Dali
The great Spanish painter, graphic artist, sculptor, director, and writer, Salvador Dali, is the most famous surrealist in the world. His absolutely unique style is striking in any art gallery. In addition, thanks to his equally unique mustache, he was easily recognizable in any crowd.
Charlie Chaplin
Thanks to his mustache, the great Hollywood star, born in Britain, named Charlie Chaplin, can be recognized even by those who have never seen his films. He got them because his first film director was unhappy that Chaplin looked too young. Charlie solved this problem by growing a mustache. It is said that the girls did not give him a pass and considered his mustache to be completely irresistible.
Joseph Stalin
Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin is a great and very controversial figure in history. One can treat him differently, but one cannot deny the fact that it was under his leadership that the USSR won the Great Patriotic War. After that, the war destroyed the economy and completely restored in the shortest possible time. Without his majestic mustache, the Chairman of the Council of Ministers of the USSR would not have looked so impressive.
Adolf Hitler
Many historians believe that the Nazi leader became like this because he had an incredibly cruel father. He humiliated him morally and constantly beat him. Someone says that Adolf had no choice. Others, quite rightly, believe that thousands and even hundreds of thousands of children grew up in such conditions, but none of them became Hitler. There are no identical destinies, as well as identical people. Of course, the style of education left its mark on the personality of the Fuhrer. He, of course, does not deserve any justification, but his inhumanity has an explanation. Mankind remembered his face. Especially the unique mustache. They don’t like to wear these, because “like Hitler’s”.
