Toothbrush Mustache facts
While investigating facts about Toothbrush Mustache, I found out little known, but curios details like:
Adolf Hitler was so attached to his now infamous "toothbrush mustache" that when one of his close friends asked him to abandon the "ugly" mustache Hitler responded, "If it is not the fashion now, it will be later because I wear it."
The "Hitler" mustache was originally coined as the "Toothbrush Mustache" before Hitler came along. It was also known as the 1/3, the postage stamp, and the soul stache.
In my opinion, it is useful to put together a list of the most interesting details from trusted sources that I've come across. Here are 5 of the best facts about Toothbrush Mustache I managed to collect.
