Over one hundred and fifty contestants from 15 countries descended on the Prinsen Hotell in Trondheim, Norway this weekend to get down to the hairy business of who exactly has the world's best facial furniture. The coveted prize was taken by a German hairdresser Elmar Weisser, 47,  with his elaborate facial hair sculpture of a moose. It is the third time Mr Weisser has emerged as champion.
