“Just wait,” says Toronto barber Pamela Hackwell. “This year you’re going to see a lot (of moustaches) stick around. Fashion is supporting that look.”
Hackwell, who works in Gotstyle’s barbershop (currently under renovation on Bathurst St. at Wellington St.), says she caught her first glimpse of the moustache renaissance in New York City’s eternally hip Village neighbourhood about six years ago. “It was kind of kitschy then, kitschy cool,” she says. “And now it’s mainstream.””
