About this look
A pencil mustache is a slim, even line that follows the upper lip without covering it. The ends stop close to the corners of the mouth and stay straight, unlike a curled handlebar or the heavy fringe of a walrus mustache.
Ask for a narrow line just above the lip and keep the cheeks and chin clean. It works with modest density if the hairs form a continuous line. Compare how thin it looks in your photo, then trim in small passes so you can keep the edges even.
