About this item
- STRONG, HIGH HOLD MUSTACHE & BEARD WAX: This mustache wax for men is made to withstand extreme heat, humidity, wind, or any other weather condition your mustache or beard encounters. Easy application with no need to reapply.
- COMPETITION-HOLD, YET STILL PLIABLE: This mustache wax extra strong hold doesn't get cemented in after application. Hair remains pliable, and you can change moustache styles throughout the day for a more natural look.
- BEST FOR: Our Wacky Tacky mustache wax for men is the darkest of our waxes and blends well with brown to black hair. Goes on lighter than it looks in the tin & can be lighter/darker than shown due to natural variances in the waxes used.
- NATURAL SCENT & COLOR: There are no dyes or fragrances in our mustache & beard wax for men. The strong hold mustache wax’s color and scent come naturally from the waxes used. A must-have for your mustache & beard care!
- REAL WAX, NOT CREAM OR PASTE - This firm hold mustache wax is meant to be hard & stiff, & requires a little warming up before application, especially in colder months.

Product Description
Our waxes contain no nuts, corn, gluten, coconut, dairy, almond, soy, lanolin or resin (fir, pine, cedar etc.).
They do contain beeswax but no other animal byproducts. They do contain a small amount of petroleum product. Without it, you would not be able to get the wax out of the tin. There are no dyes or fragrances in our waxes. Both color and scent come naturally from the waxes used.
This wax is suitable for a wide variety of moustache, beard and goatee styles.
We support a different charity every year by donating 25 cents of every tin you purchase.
MADE IN THE USA.
OUR STORY
John is a fireman and a farrier by trade, and has sported a moustache since 1987. When his 2 favorite moustache waxes stopped selling in the market, he just couldn't find anything comparable that worked – one that could withstand not only the rigors of his jobs, but also Mississippi’s heat, humidity and wind, as well as the damp and cold. That’s when he decided to experiment in making his own moustache and beard wax.
At the fire station, everyone would get in on the fun as he tossed around ideas and experimented with the guys there. Thus the name for the moustache wax was born.
After many trial and error batches, he came up with a wax that has an incredible hold, is easy to apply and will not run. Each small batch of mustache/beard wax is personally handmade, hand poured and checked by John. We hope you’ll enjoy it!
HOW TO USE
PUSH (do NOT scrape or wipe) wax up on the fingernail of your index finger, and then wipe it onto your thumb of the same hand. (Push like a bulldozer pushes up dirt.) Some customers prefer using different objects to push up the wax before putting on fingers. Find what works best for you. Rub the wax back and forth 2-3 times between your index finger and thumb. Then apply using your index finger. Or you can use both index finger and thumb if you’re trying to handlebar or want more control of where the wax is applied.

The Inspired Mustache
Firehouse Moustache Wax
Important information
Safety Information
For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes. Keep away from naked flame or direct heat sources.
Indications
Tame, train, style & control facial hair
Legal Disclaimer
Please note: If you warm the wax up in the tin, it is not necessary to rub the wax back and forth between your fingers before applying. The rubbing back and forth is to warm the wax up but is not needed if the wax is already very warmed in the tin and will actually create the opposite effect of cooling off the wax and possibly making it crumble and not go on smoothly. Make sure there is no conditioner/lanolin/balm/oil in your facial hair before you apply. Conditioning agents will prevent the wax from performing well or doing its job. You can leave conditioners in overnight, but just make sure they are washed out completely before application.

The wax will hold your stache strong during rain or snow, hot or cold, humidity or dry. It's also surprisingly easy to wash off (hands & stache) considering how strong it is.
This is the strongest ("tackiest") wax I have used. You don't need to use much at all. There is a 'smell' to the wax, it's not pleasant but not unpleasant. I can only smell it for a little while working with the wax and a few minutes after I apply. It's not distracting and goes away quickly. I know some people have complained about it, but I don't find it bothersome at all.
The wax is dark in color but it doesn't darken my (blonde) moustache at all. It goes on neutral and I don't notice any change in shade. I imagine if you use a lot it COULD change the color, but I find a little goes a long way.
I keep the tin in my pocket so it's warm and ready to work with if I need to re-apply during the day. But that might even be pointless because I've found that I haven't had to re-apply even once. I apply once in the morning and I'm good to go until bed!
This is a great wax! It's very strong and seems like it'd hold up during a hurricane. I'll be ordering again once I'm low.
Reviewed in the United States on June 22, 2021
On a scale of 1 to 10 for stiffness this his a high 7 or 8. I like that. Very stiff in the tin but after just a minute or so of rubbing you get a pliable amount that is just right for multiple passes on your stache. It has very little smell...I wish it had a stronger scent. Ive enjoyed waxes in the past that had a great peat moss smoke or woodsy smell. Can't find anything like that current (please share a recommendation if you know one!)
Taste...this one surprised me. Its mildly bitter like raw dandelion flower stem sap. Actually pleasant to me. Not bitter like the taste of a rubber balloon from yoru fingers after blowing them up. But it is legit bitter and that might be a dealbreaker for some.
Lastly...hold. Moderate and thats fine by me. Dries nicely and has just enough hold to get through the day. Giving it an A+ on this point.
I'm giving a 4 star rating but it really is more like a 3.5 or so.
* irrelevant comment: arrived in a clear sealed bag with no lid. Dent in the can. I honestly think the Amazon packer dropped it, lost the lid and said fuggit, "send it!" LOL
UPDATE: Ive been using this for over a month now and I've learned you can get this for $11 from their website. Also as the day goes by I find my handlebars starting to loosen up. Summer is in full swing now and 100+ temps and 70% humidity aren't treating this wax very well. Looking to supplement it with peckerhead wax which is 3 ingredients (beeswax lanolin and pine resin). The fact that firehouse uses a "petroleum" product but doesn't say exactly what it is, is kind of concerning... This stuff goes on the hair right above my mouth so it's eventually gonna get in my mouth... And I don't want to be eating anything harmful. I'd like a bit more transparency from them TBH... Secret recipe or not, I won't be using it on my upper lip hair but rather the tips of my handle bar curls from now on (unless I find a better wax like peckerhead or AJs Elixirs) still a good product tho.

Really thankful to this.
The trick is knowing how to apply it properly.
Would recommend. Not found a wax as good as this on the market.
Brace yourself for an uncomfortable feeling on the upper lip till this is on.
