** If Julius Caesar is to be believed, ''all'' of the Britons had mustaches. Given that in the work that he mentions this he's also trying to portray them as a nation of {{Barbarian Hero}}s to make himself look all the more badass for defeating them, this probably counts as this trope.

Not to be confused with the BeardOfEvil, although a BadassBeard may also be present. The BadassMustache is smaller and more defined and does not inherently bring with it villainous intent. Not all mustaches are {{Badass}}; there's a fine line between this and the PornStache, which these days is more likely to inspire mockery than respect, and of course the toothbrush mustache (also known as the Hitler mustache) just looks silly.
