Fu Manchu moustache

A thin moustache whose ends grow long and hang down below the chin.

Also: Fu Manchu

A Fu Manchu moustache grows only from the corners of the upper lip and is left long, so the ends hang down past the chin, with the rest of the face shaved. The name comes from a fictional villain in Sax Rohmer's novels from 1913, a character now widely seen as a racist stereotype. Similar long, thin moustaches appear in older Chinese and Central Asian portraiture. It needs years of growth.
