How to Draw a Mustache
Draw a mustache in 12 easy steps, about 9 minutes. Free, with a printable worksheet.
Each picture adds one red line. Draw that line, then scroll to the next picture. Rub out any dashed helper lines at the end. First up: the head.
Step 1: The head
Near the top of your paper draw a big soft egg for the head, a little narrower at the chin.
Tip Make it big: nearly two thirds of the page tall.
Step 2: Two ears
Start on the side of the head. Draw a C ear out and back to the head. Do both sides.
Step 3: Big eyes
Below the middle of the head draw 2 big tall oval eyes. Add a big black dot and a shine.
Step 4: Nose and brows
Between and below the eyes draw a tiny U nose. Add a short rainbow eyebrow above each eye.
Step 5: The moustache
Start under the nose. Sweep a fat lobe out to a thin point and curl it up. Do both sides.
Tip Fat in the middle, thin at the curled tips.
Step 6: Smile and cheeks
Under the moustache, swoop a smile from under one eye to the other. Add a cheek oval beside each end.
Step 7: Hair cap
Start above the left ear. Follow the head up into tufts, over the top and down above the right ear.
Step 8: Hairline
Start at the same left point. Draw 4 soft bumps across the forehead and stop at the right point.
Step 9: Neck and shirt
Under the chin draw 2 short neck lines. Slope a shoulder out from each one. Add a little U collar.
Step 10: Pink cheeks, peach skin
Colour the cheeks pink, then the face, ears and neck peach around the cheeks and moustache. Leave the eyes white.
Step 11: Red shirt
Colour the shirt red.
Step 12: Black moustache and hair
Colour the moustache and the hair black. Go over your lines and your moustache face is done.

Follow the steps above and this is where you end up: a mustache, drawn by you.
