Face Shape Calculator

How to Use the Face Shape Calculator

Welcome to the Face Shape Calculator! This tool helps you determine your face shape based on various facial measurements. Follow the steps below to use the calculator effectively.

Step 1: Gather Your Tools

Before you start, ensure you have a flexible tape measure, a mirror, and a notepad or a digital device to record your measurements.

Step 2: Measure Your Face

You’ll need to take several measurements of your face. Ensure that each measurement is accurate to achieve the best results. Record each measurement immediately after taking it.

• Face Length: Measure from the center of your hairline to the tip of your chin. Ensure the tape measure follows the curve of your face.
• Jaw Width: Measure across the widest point of your jaw, usually from one jawline to the other.
• Forehead Width: Measure the width of your forehead at the widest point, typically halfway between your eyebrows and your hairline.
• Cheekbone Width: Measure the distance across the upper part of your cheeks, from one prominent cheekbone to the other.
• Jawline Length: Measure from one ear to the point of your chin along the jawline.

Step 3: Input Your Measurements

Enter each of your measurements into the respective fields of the calculator:

• Face Length: Enter your measured face length in centimeters.
• Jaw Width: Enter the jaw width measurement in centimeters.
• Forehead Width: Enter the forehead width measurement in centimeters.
• Cheekbone Width: Enter the cheekbone width measurement in centimeters.
• Jawline Length: Enter the jawline length measurement in centimeters.

Ensure your measurements fall within the specified ranges provided for each input field.

Step 4: Review Your Results

Once you’ve entered all the necessary data, the calculator will automatically compute several results:

• Face Length to Width Ratio: This is the ratio of your face length to your cheekbone width, displayed to two decimal places.
• Jaw to Forehead Ratio: This shows the proportion of your jaw width to your forehead width, also displayed to two decimal places.
• Your Face Shape: Based on the calculated ratios and dimensions, the calculator will determine your face shape category such as Oblong, Round, Triangle, Heart, Diamond, Square, or Oval.
• Facial Symmetry Score: This percentage reflects the symmetry between your jaw and forehead widths. A higher score indicates greater facial symmetry.

Step 5: Interpret Your Results

Use the provided face shape and symmetry score to better understand the characteristics of your face. This information can be useful for selecting hairstyles, makeup techniques, and glasses frames that complement your natural features.

Remember that this calculator provides guidance based on measurements, and individual perceptions of face shape can vary. Enjoy exploring your results and what they mean for you!
