Frank Zappa's signature was a two-piece: a dense moustache flaring slightly downward past the corners of the mouth, and a separate soul patch under the lip. Together they bracket the mouth without enclosing it, a rock-and-roll counterpoint to the tidy chevron. The style carries its namesake's attitude, wry and countercultural, and works best worn a touch shaggy; over-grooming it misses the reference.
Who does it suit?
The downward flare suits most faces and softens sharp jawlines. It reads casual anywhere, which helps or hurts depending on the room.
How to maintain it
Trim for shape every week or two, keep the patch defined, resist the comb beyond basic order.
