Moustache wax is a stiff pomade applied to a moustache as a grooming aid to hold the hairs in place, especially at the extremities. The required product strength (or stiffness) is based on whisker length and the desired style. It can also have restorative properties, which become more important as the hair length increases. The wax is usually scented and sometimes pigmented with dyes; high end products utilize various combinations of iron oxide to create darker shades. Simple moustache wax comprises equal quantities of beeswax and petroleum jelly, combined in a double boiler. More sophisticated recipes may include gum arabic and a soap, scent and colouring may also be added if desired.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=D.I.Y. Moustache Wax )〕 ==Common ingredients== *Beeswax *Coconut oil or shea nut butter (or any saturated vegetable oil, solid at room temperature, and not prone to rancidity) *Petroleum jelly (Vaseline) *Gum arabic or pine resin *Scented oils *Tallow In addition to the wax itself more experienced "waxers" use a moustache wax remover and conditioner. The reason for this being that warm soapy water (used by the novice) removes wax build up but at the same time damages the bristles stripping it of natural oils. So an oilbased moustache wax remover, that may double as a leavein conditioner, is preferred. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Moustache wax」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
