This can be a CyclicTrope, particularly when thick mustaches come back into fashion for men of all ethnic groups. If all the "Anglo" characters have thick facial hair, for instance, Mexican characters may go clean-shaven to emphasize their Aztec heritage.

Latin American men outside the United States seem to have more 'staches than other ethnic groups (especially common between the 1920s and 1970s, when most American men were either clean-shaven or had very thin mustaches). Whether it's GoodHairEvilHair, {{Badass|Mustache}}, or just plain funny depends on the character, mustache, and viewer.

* As mustaches have become less common in the culture generally (they're now seen as more of a [[TheSeventies '70s]] and [[TheEighties '80s thing]]), more wrestlers - including Hispanic ones - are choosing to go clean-shaven unless they also have beards. AlbertoDelRio and Ricardo Rodriguez are the two most prominent examples. Sin Cara doesn't really count either way, since we never see his face.

**To be more precise; after various successful films featuring Pedro Infante and Luis Aguilar as leads, a specific set of movies depicted them as Traffic Officers. Even more specifically, they both play rivals/friends motorized traffic officers. Previous to these movies, all police officers were required to comforn to military dress code, that meant buzzcut and shaving all facial hair. Legend states that after the movies were a hit with the audiences, the motorized traffic division officers started to grow mustaches mimicking those of both Pedro and Luis; and to this date they still do, it is very rare to see a completely shaven biker cop or even actual police officers. It's expected of them now. Federal Police, Inteerstate highway police, Army and Navy however, still adhere to the full shaven look.

** Significant in that Gordito is twelve, and grew it of his own free will in about ''five seconds'' when the custody agent refused to let him have his late father's guns. It's called "the Mustache of Authority" and it works like the JediMindTrick, allowing him to command the weak willed into obedience.
