Q. Does mustache stop growing?
Your mustache, along with the rest of your facial hair, does eventually stop growing. It reaches what is called “terminal length.” However, each person has a different terminal length due to their genetics. For most people this happens around the time their mustache would start to curl over and obscure their upper lip.
Q. Why is my mustache thinning?
There are many reasons why a man can develop patchy thin mustache on his upper lip, including young age, differences in genetics, insufficient beard nutrients, and simply just being too impatient with letting your mustache grow out properly before you embark on any trimming or shaping.

- Severe pain.
