02How the face shape detector works
Your browser finds the outline of your face and takes five measurements: how long your face is against its width at the cheekbones, how wide your forehead and jaw are compared with your cheekbones, how much your jaw narrows toward the chin, and the angle at the corner of your jaw. Each of the six shapes is a typical set of these five numbers; your face shape is the closest one, and we show the next closest too.
03Face shape questions
01How do I know my face shape?
Take one straight-on selfie in even light, with your hair off your forehead. The face shape detector compares your face's length with its width and your forehead and jaw with your cheekbones, then picks the closest of the six shapes.
02What if my face is between two shapes?
Many faces are. That's why you see your closest shape and the next closest one. A borderline face can read as its neighbour in another photo, so use a straight-on photo for the most consistent result.
03Does the face shape detector work for men?
Yes. The measurements are the same for everyone, and the hairstyle direction works for any gender. The full attractiveness report adds beard directions for men.
04Is my photo uploaded?
No. The face shape detector runs entirely in your browser and never uploads your photo.
05Which hairstyles suit my face shape?
Your result gives one hairstyle direction for your shape. To see yourself in 3 AI hairstyles made from your photo, take the free attractiveness test and get the full report ($9.99 one-time).
