Symbolism
The Hulihee is a cut of beard that is not for the shy or inexperienced. It features full sideburns that extend beyond the jawline, a mustache, and a bare chin. Get the look by either growing out Mutton Chops or, if starting with a full beard, just shave off the chin and shape the sides.
While some say the Hulihee is the sole Imperial style of beard that is not named for a 19th-century aristocrat, they're wrong. This cut is actually a bridge between the Imperial styles and Friendly Mutton Chops, and the first to wear it was King Kalākaua - the last king of the Kingdom of Hawaiʻi. He was known as “The Merry Monarch” for his flamboyance, humor, and charisma. Imperial AND friendly.
King Kalākaua and Queen Kapiʻolani fought against decades of cultural oppression by Christian missionaries. They helped renew a sense of pride in Hawaiian heritage and culture, living by the motto Hoʻoūlu Lāhui - Increase the Nation. They helped renew the oral tradition of using hula to pass on their stories.
King Kalākaua's had a love of knowledge. He shared his culture with the world by compiling stories into the book, Legends and Myths of Hawaii. In 1881, he became the first monarch to circumnavigate the globe. And he financed sending Hawaiian youth to study abroad to expand their knowledge beyond what they could do on the islands.
It wasn't always fun time for King Kalākaua. He experienced hardship, including the annexation of Hawaii. But he did it with charm, joy, and confidence - and with a Hulihee beard on his face.
As for the mascot - the lynx wears a natural version of a Hulihee beard. But, more than this, the lynx is symbolic of intelligence. Etymologically, lynx is connected to the words elucidate, illuminate, lucid, luminous, and light. Fitting, since the lynx has been called "The Silent Witness" for its exceptional night vision (as well as remarkable hearing and instincts.)
The lynx calls on us to release invasive thoughts and find mental clarity and focus. This is so you can better listen to your intuition and reflect on the mysteries of life. And the lynx represents wisdom and observational prowess. This is why one of the oldest and most prestigious scientific institutions is named after the lynx - The Accademia dei Lincei (The Academy of the Lynx-Eyed).
