Occurrence and perceptions of mustaches
The ''mustache'' is the general term for the hair found on the upper lip, it may or may not be accompanied by a ''beard'' or other facial hair.
==Mustache fashion through history==
Like many other fashion trends, the mustache is subject to shifting popularity through time. Though modern culture often associates mustaches with men of the Victorian Era, Susan Walton shows that at the start of the Victorian Era facial hair was "viewed with distaste" and that the mustache was considered the mark of an artist or revolutionary, both of which remained on the social fringe at the time. This is supported by the fact that only one member of parliament sported facial hair from the years 1841-1847.〔 However by the 1860s, this changes and mustaches become wildly popular even among distinguished men but by the end of the century facial hair became passé once more.〔 Though one cannot be entirely sure are to the cause of such changes, Walton speculates that the rise of the facial hair trend was due largely in part because the impending war against Russia, and the believe that mustaches and beards projected a more 'manly' image, which was brought about by the so-called 'rebranding' of the British military and the rehabilitation of military virtues.〔 Mustaches became a defining trait of the British soldier, as even late as 1908 no enlisted soldier was permitted to shave his upper lip. However, the next generation of men perceived facial hair, such as mustaches, to be an outdated emblem of masculinity and therefore there was a dramatic decline in the mustache trend and a clean-shaven face became the mark of a modern man.〔
