Typically we like our men with a little (or a lot) of scruff on them, but we're making an exception for these gents who are doing something pretty rad for the month of Movember—a monthlong charity event that helps raise money and awareness for men's health.
Team Stachekrieg, a group of facial hair veterans, met at Joe’s Barbershop in San Francisco yesterday to say goodbye to their beloved whiskers and welcome their baby faces back into the world. Over the next 30 days, the men will carefully cultivate a moustache, and through the power of the stache, raise awareness and funds to combat prostate and testicular cancer.
Awesome, right?
Here's a pic of team Stachekrieg in all of their furry glory:
