The Daily Moustache: Series Finale

It's the final moustache.

I have to admit to you, readers: I’m legitimately depressed that The Daily Moustache has come to an end. Much like Christmas, it has afforded me great joy. And also much like Christmas, its passing has left a void. Life, once full of color and magic—and facial hair—is now a dull, gray blur.

But, let us not wallow in despair. Nay! Let us instead celebrate:

The Moustache That Was

A Month to Remember: One Man’s Journey Through Movember

The Daily Moustache: Nov. 24

Ryan Jones’ moustache would make a fine addition to any Thanksgiving dinner party, don’t you think?

Ryan wanted me to take this photo from an angle “to show off the corners,” and I must say that was a fine idea. Just look at it!

Owing to the impending holiday weekend, this is all you’ll see of The Daily Moustache this week, but rest assured we’ll be back for one final, magnificent post next Wednesday.

The Daily Moustache: Nov. 19

Whoa! Looks like Ryan Jones’ moustache is ready for a night on the town!

I wonder if it’s going to Aurora 2010? Or someplace else? I hope it isn’t planning to stay in tonight, because that would be lame, and Ryan Jones’ moustache is anything but lame.

Don’t worry. We’ll be back next week with more Daily Moustache photos and insights.

The Daily Moustache: Nov. 17

Ryan Jones’ moustache had a very productive weekend, it seems. Just look at it!

I do hope Mr. Jones decides to keep this thing beyond Nov. 30, because I’ve found him the perfect Christmas present. That would look mighty smart emblazoned with a few D logos.

I can’t wait to see what the next two weeks bring, and I’m confident you can’t, either. Be sure to check back tomorrow for another thrilling episode of The Daily Moustache.

The Daily Moustache: Nov. 12

Some days, life hands you a gift. This is one of those days.

Though Ryan Jones regrettably did not shave his beard today, thereby robbing us of a true moustache experience, this photo still gives us a sufficient look at how the hair growth on his labium superius oris is progressing. And it is awesome.

See you next week for more exciting installments of The Daily Moustache, D Magazine’s celebration of Movember.

The Daily Moustache: Nov. 11

Lookin’ good, Ryan Jones! I am especially enjoying the Clint Eastwood-like gaze.

Be sure to come back tomorrow for more enrichment via The Daily Moustache, D Magazine’s celebration of Movember.

The Daily Moustache: Nov. 10

My, what a difference a few days make. Ryan Jones’ lip hair is coming along quite nicely. A few days ago, we had this. And now look at him!

Don’t worry about the frown. He’s not really sad, mad, or otherwise anything short of ecstatic to be a part of this great experiment. He was merely contorting his facial muscles to show off his Movember moustache to its best advantage.

The Daily Moustache: Nov. 5

You can’t tell clearly from the photo, but I detect noticeable growth over Ryan Jones’ philtrum.

Thank you for joining us this week. Tune in Wednesday for the next installment of The Daily Moustache.

The Daily Moustache: Nov. 4

Mere days into our Movember experiment, our guinea pig colleague Ryan Jones is sporting a wee bit of stubble. Early projections suggest that though he’s a couple of days behind, having only shaved Tuesday night, he’ll soon outpace other Movemberites in follicular output. “That subtle shadow will soon blossom into a wonderful ’stache!” predicts Raya Ramsey of ShopTalk. Jones did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Let’s have a closer look, shall we?

Indeed, I do see approximately 0.8 milimeters of new hair, and the growth pattern appears regular and consistent.

We’ll see you tomorrow.

The Daily Moustache

Remember on Monday when I mentioned the start of Movember? Well! Resident sports expert Ryan Jones has graciously agreed to participate in this annual event for raising awareness and funds for fighting prostate and testicular cancer—and to let me document his progress and publish it here for posterity. Sadly, Ryan is only here three days a week, so this won’t technically be a daily moustache report. However, why quibble when you have a great headline? Check back each Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday.
