How the Face Shape Calculator Works

Enter Your Measurements

Measure face length, forehead width, cheekbone width, and jaw width using a flexible measuring tape or ruler. Each field includes visual guidance.

Calculate Your Shape

Our algorithm analyzes the ratios between your measurements to determine which of 6 face shape categories best matches your proportions.

Review your face shape result, see golden ratio alignment percentage, and discover styling recommendations for hair and accessories.

Face Shape Calculator Tool

Measurement Unit
mm

Measure from the center of your hairline to the bottom of your chin in a straight vertical line.

mm

Measure the widest part of your forehead, typically from temple to temple at the hairline level.

mm

Measure from the outer corner of one eye to the other across the widest part of your cheekbones.

mm

Measure across the widest part of your jawline, from the angle of one side to the other.

mm

Measure from the bottom of your lower lip to the bottom of your chin in a straight vertical line.

Your Face Shape

Oval

Your face has balanced proportions with gentle curves.

Proportion Alignment

0% alignment with golden ratio

This shows mathematical relationship to phi (1.618), a ratio found in nature and art. Higher percentage indicates closer alignment with this classical proportion.

Recommendations for Your Shape

  • Most hairstyles complement oval shapes
  • Both rounded and angular frames work well
  • Experiment with different part styles

About Face Shape Analysis

Our Face Shape Calculator uses mathematical ratios to categorize facial proportions into commonly recognized shape types. These categories are based on measurement relationships between face length, forehead width, cheekbone width, and jaw width.

Scientific Limitations: Face shape categorization is a simplified framework for understanding facial structure. It does not account for three-dimensional features, bone structure depth, or soft tissue characteristics. Results are analytical approximations, not clinical assessments.

Golden Ratio Context: The golden ratio (phi: 1.618) appears in various natural patterns and has been historically associated with aesthetics. Our calculator shows proportional alignment as a mathematical reference point, not as a beauty standard or clinical metric.

Frequently Asked Questions About Face Shapes

How accurate is the face shape calculator?

The face shape calculator uses measurement ratios to categorize faces into 6 common shape types (oval, round, square, heart, diamond, oblong). Accuracy depends on precise measurements. The calculator is designed for analytical purposes, not clinical assessment. Results are approximations based on mathematical ratios.

What measurements do I need for the face shape calculator?

You need 5 key measurements: face length (hairline to chin), forehead width (temple to temple), cheekbone width (widest part), jaw width (jawline angle to angle), and chin length (bottom lip to chin tip). Use a flexible measuring tape or ruler for best results.

Is my face data stored when I use the calculator?

No. All measurements and calculations are processed locally in your browser. We do not store, save, or transmit any personal data or measurements you enter. Your privacy is fully protected.

What is the golden ratio in face shape analysis?

The golden ratio (phi: 1.618) is a mathematical proportion found in nature and art. In facial analysis, it's used to compare length-to-width ratios. Our calculator shows how closely your measurements align with this ratio as a reference point, not as a beauty standard.

Can I upload a photo to calculate my face shape?

Photo upload is coming soon. Currently, the calculator uses manual measurements. Join our waitlist to be notified when AI-powered photo analysis becomes available.

Which face shape is most common?

Oval and round face shapes are statistically more common, though all 6 face shapes (oval, round, square, heart, diamond, oblong) appear across all populations. Face shape is determined by bone structure and has no bearing on attractiveness.

How do I measure my face shape at home?

Use a flexible measuring tape and a mirror. Measure face length vertically from hairline to chin, then measure forehead width, cheekbone width, and jaw width horizontally at their widest points. Our calculator provides visual guides for each measurement point.

Does face shape change with age?

Basic bone structure and face shape category remain stable, but soft tissue changes (fat distribution, skin elasticity) can affect appearance over time. Major shape changes are rare without significant weight fluctuation or aging.
