Mottumars (Moustache March) is a yearly campaign against cancer
where men grow and groom their moustaches in order to collect
pledges for the cause. The nice guys at KEX Hostel barbershop
Raxtur, are offering their assistance, but anyone that has tried sure
knows that grooming a moustache is no joke. So if you wanna raise
some dough for a good cause, but aren’t necessarily proficient
with the scissors, stroll down to KEX, have a stout and a shave and
support the campaign. SKK
