Where did "no shave november" come from?

No guys over here shave for all november and i’m curious what started this.

Answer #1

All I can say is that I am SUPER HAPPY that my boyfriend has not heard of this yet. Thank goodness. I would mu.rder him

There is actually a lack of history behind it, and no one really knows where it comes from. This is the most information that I could find: http://funadvice.com/r/bebve53ij77

Answer #2

I’ve never heard of “No shave November” before, you girls should get them back by not shaving too!

Answer #3

I think it just started because November is when it starts getting cold therefore letting your beard grow out to keep your face warm.

Answer #4

Then why shave in december?

Answer #5

It started here a while ago with a radio campaign, seeing who could grow the coolest mustache in a month, making it ‘Mo-vember’ Then it just developed into Don’t shave at all month….

Answer #6

Hey all. I found the best description of it in this video. Check it out.

Answer #7

Haha, no idea, but pretty much every guy here I know participates in it XD

Answer #8

Actually, all the given answers are wrong. No shave November, AKA “Movember” is something men participate in, where they do not shave their face for the whole month of November to help raise prostrate/testicular cancer awareness. You can get more info about it at [link removed]. (:
