The 2nd annual Mustache Challenge is showing tremendous growth…literally. During last year's inaugural challenge, 90octane colleagues, clients and friends raced to spawn the sassiest mustache. We're back – with more contestants and bigger dreams.

Get going on your mustache March 17th! Challengers have about one month to put their best facial hair forward. See how hairy things got after April 1st, the date the Mustache Challenge draws to a close, as we'll be posting "After" photos.

I am thoroughly UN-impressed with the hair growth thus far. My advice – HAIR CLUB FOR MEN. But I will say that Jim is nicely sporting the ‘lumberjack in Burberry' look, and Neil has successfully achieved the ‘Abe Lincoln chin strap.'
- Jenny Bachner

I personally do not discriminate on hair growth ability. In order to win in my book it comes to creative clipper confidence.
- Gloria Dutton

I'd have to say I'm extremely impressed with Leslie's 'creative' hair growth. She is like a chameleon - state trooper one day, old hippy man another.
- Lauren “Beard” Klostermann

It's starting to look a little creepy around here!
- Shannon Denny

I can't believe how different Pete looked without his facial hair! So much younger. I actually laughed when I saw him.
- Janessa Seewald

Is this a puberty contest or a mustache challenge 'cause I'm not sure?
- Jessica Shepherd

I vote Pete for "most changed in appearance" – at least for Day 1 when he didn't have any hair on his face. I went up and shook his hand saying, "Hi, are you a new consultant here?" to which he replied, "Yes, my name is Big Beard Samland."
