Held in the town of Leogang in the Austrian mountains on the 3rd of October, the 2015 World Beard And Moustache Championships had some really ballsy competitors standing against each other flaunting their interesting facial hair to compete in 18 categories across 3 divisions; Moustaches, Partial Beards and Full Beards. Each of the categories offers three prizes to the winners with the best facial hair. Best goatee, best stubble and best fashion beard are some its sub categories.
Here’s a participant with a star-shaped beard.
Beard like a bull’s horns.
More than 350 hot men with their sexy mustaches and beards from over 20 different countries joined together to flaunt their cool and manly stuff. (We are referring to their facial hair only!)
Don’t what it is but it looks interesting.
Beard or an old tree’s roots?
“I am expecting strong competitors with unusual beards in Saalfelden Leogang this year,” said Wilhelm Preuss, the president of the East Bavarian Beard Club. “We will see where beards grow the fastest.”
In circles.
The crowd and the judges.
Too hipster?
Popular Austrian photojournalist Jan Heitfleisch took numerous picture at the event. The journalist did not just feature the winners but also all the contestants with spectacular facial hair! Here’s a contestant blow drying his beard.
His beard gives an illusion of a Christmas tree.
Man hair go round!
Does it look OTT?
