How do you grow Fu Manchu mustache?

To get the Fumanchu mustache, first, you need to grow your facial hair. While it is growing, it may not come out as full and even as you want, so no worries. You will then need to trim almost all of it anyway. Just leave a strip of facial hair above the top lip and around the mouth. Continue to grow your mustache so it hangs down from your face at the corners. Finally, use a mustache wax to train your whiskers to keep the Fu Man Chu shape.
