{{quote|''"...like the SAS commander, who has the sort of absurd facial hair that indeed would have given him a proud military bearing circa 1915, but nowadays just makes him look like a German porn star."''
|'''[[Zero Punctuation|Yahtzee]]''', on ''[[Call of Duty]] 4's'' Captain Price.}}
A style of facial hair that resembles the classic "handlebar mustache", but is thicker and bushier on top, with no other facial hair underneath. Often used to (at least in the wearer's intentions) indicate a guy's "rugged" or "manly" nature.

* Master Asia from ''[[G Gundam]]''.
* ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam 0083: Stardust Memory]]''
Line 67 ⟶ 68:
** Commander Bill Adama had one during the first couple of episodes of season three.
** Edward James Olmos shaved off his trademark moustache when he took the role of "Bill Adama". He regrew it for the "New Caprica" arc, {{spoiler|to symbolize the character's complacency during this period where humanity wasn't being killed off by Cylons, but ultimately shaved it off once humanity was successfully evacuated from the planet when the Cylons took over.}}
* BJ Hunnicutt grew one for the last few seasons of ''[[
* Nick Stokes, briefly, on the original ''[[CSI]]''. He mercifully got rid of it.
* Wash from ''[[Firefly]]'' has one in a flashback. Zoe comments that there's "something" she doesn't like about him. Since they eventually get married and he's cleanshaven in the rest of the series, presumably the lady just doesn't like porn staches. Of course, then there's the blooper version of that scene where both Zoe and Mal are also wearing porn staches....

* Wrestler Scott Hall had one during his AWA days, when he was "Magnum" Scott Hall. He later shaved it before going to the [[
** And the man he was emulating, "Magnum" TA - who looked a little like Tom Selleck from ''Magnum PI''.
* Announcer Tony Schiavone, early in his career.

** Atlanta Falcons defensive coordinator [http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4086/5012430098_2bcf9083ea_z.jpg Brian Van Gorder].
** [[Keith Olbermann]] alternated between this and clean-shaven from his days as a sports anchor in [[Los Angeles]] until midway through his [[Sports Center]] tenure, after which he apparently hacked it off for good. Apparently he figured out that the look may work for some people ([[Your Mileage May Vary|YMMV]]), but it unambiguously does ''not'' work for him.
** Similarly, [[ESPN]]'s Chris Berman sported one early in his tenure on ESPN [https://web.archive.org/web/20120125061803/http://network.yardbarker.com/all_sports/article_external/chris_berman_rocking_the_mustache/3195134 and recently decided to give it another try].
** MLB Pitcher Carl Pavano - ''especially'' when it's not fully grown in.
** Possibly-former Boston Bruins goalie Tim Thomas.
