For men, a mustache is something sacred and untouchable. Such beauty takes a long time to grow and takes even longer to care for.
Sometimes men are so proud of their facial hair and get used to it that they wear it for years, decades or their entire lives.
Many actors, directors and singers also did not escape a similar fate. And since famous personalities are almost always in plain sight, their mustaches become almost a trademark and few can imagine them without the usual element on their face. Let us imagine and see.

Mikhail Boyarsky

Probably Boyarsky is the most famous mustachioed man in our country. But even with his mustache there were incidents. “Before the start of filming the film “D’Artagnan and the Three Musketeers,” I spent a long time and painfully growing my mustache, but on the very first day, curling it, the make-up artist burned the musketeer’s pride. I had to glue artificial ones until my own ones grew back,” said Boyarsky.

He started growing a mustache at a young age and without it he looked like this.

Joseph Stalin

Another world-famous barbel. True, his mustache is unlikely to make anyone smile.

Stalin grew it out as soon as the opportunity arose and has never shaved it off since then. The Secretary General without a mustache can only be seen at a young age.

Igor Nikolaev

Long light curls and a dark mustache - this is the singer’s unchanging image. However, he himself claims that he did not create the image on purpose, but he can no longer imagine himself without a mustache. “I think all changes should concern creativity, what is inside a person. And what will grow on the face is already from the field of physiology,” Nikolaev said.

“Since my mustache grew, I only shaved it once, before taking the oath.”

Nikita Mikhalkov

Not only the audience, but also his own daughter cannot imagine the director without a mustache. Nadya Mikhalkova once said in an interview: “I would be upset if he shaved them off. I used to not like the thing that prickles when dad kisses me. And now I like dad so much that I can’t imagine him without a mustache.”

But the director and actor began his career without a mustache.

Leonid Yakubovich

The TV presenter has become a kind of brand for the “Field of Miracles” program, and indeed for the entire First Channel, largely thanks to his mustache. In one of the programs, a participant working as an insurance agent insured Yakubovich’s mustache.

Leonid Arkadyevich grew a fashion accessory at a fairly mature age.

Charlie Chaplin

Many people are familiar with the actor in his stage appearance with his signature mustache.

But in life, Chaplin did not wear a mustache and looked not at all like a comedian, but like an attractive playboy.

Adolf Hitler

For a long time, many historians believed that the Fuhrer wore his mustache with a brush, following fashion. This myth was dispelled by the writer Alexander Frei, who served with Hitler. Like all his other colleagues, Hitler was ordered to trim his mustache because it could interfere with his ability to put on a gas mask.

Until that moment, the future Fuhrer wore a bushy Prussian mustache.

Hitler was completely beardless only in his teens.

Hulk Hogan

The wrestler is the bearer of Fu Manchu's signature mustache, without which it is no longer possible to imagine him.

It's not surprising that Hogan decided to grow a mustache: without it, he doesn't look like an intimidating fighter, but like a cute hulk.

Albert Einstein

The genius of mathematics and physics became the prototype of a real professor thanks to his disheveled hair and thick mustache.

Einstein never shaved his facial hair, so he can only be seen without a mustache in childhood photographs.

Freddie Mercury

Queen vocalist most of wore a characteristic mustache.

Sometimes Freddie shaved his mustache. For example, in the last video, filmed shortly before his death, he appears without a mustache.

Sacha Baron Cohen

The British actor grew a mustache for the role of the Kazakh journalist Borat, and this is exactly how he remained in the memory of the audience.

Now Cohen walks without a mustache.

Clark Gable

In most films, the American actor starred with a mustache, which definitely gave his image more masculinity.

However, Gable also appeared on screens without a mustache.

Salvador Dali

The surrealist's mustache is perhaps the most recognizable in the world.

Just like many others, Dali grew a mustache at the first opportunity, so a photograph of him without a mustache is a real rarity.

Saddam Hussein

The mustache of the former leader of the Iraqi Republic became so inseparable from his image that, while hiding from the Americans, he even shaved it off, leaving only a beard.

Like other eastern men, Hussein grew a mustache as soon as the opportunity arose, and therefore he can only be seen in a beardless state in childhood.
