MyFaceShape Shows the Closest Shape
MyFaceShape Shows the Closest Shape starts with the outer line of the face, not with one feature in the middle of it. A second shape may be near, and the app still picks one.
These steps are how a scan is taken in the app: photo, crop, result, and what the result is allowed to mean. The picture above is the pin for this guide. The same page is the link on the pins that belong with it.

How to read the outline
If you searched for “shows the closest shape”, stay with the contour. Name the shape only after you can see where the face is long and where it is wide.
The pick is the result. You can repeat the check with the same photo or a new one.
A repeat on a tilted photo may move a close call. A saved photo works if it is front-facing and the jaw is visible.
A new selfie works the same way. It uses those points to build the outline.
When two names both seem possible
Features inside the outline are not the shape. The app compares forehead, cheeks, and jaw, then length.
That comparison chooses the shape. A clearer, straighter picture can refine a close call.
The estimate is still a real closest shape. You can find the shape without a ruler.
The app estimates the lines from the photo. Run a scan by adding a straight-on photo and waiting for the outline.
Then read the shape name. Read the shape name before the smaller measurements.
The name is the closest outline, and the measurements say why. A tilt or a profile weakens the widths.
Use the straight-on picture.
A shadow on one cheek moves where the width appears to sit. Even light keeps the outline honest. If two outlines both seem close, look again at the chin and the jaw corners. That is usually where they split.
Take the photo straight
Use one photo, taken straight on, with the camera at eye level. Hair only needs to be clear of the hairline and the jaw. A tilt, a shadow on one cheek, or a chin that is lifted will change the outline before you have even started.
Look at the forehead, the cheeks, and the jaw as three widths. Then compare the length of the face with the width. That is the whole reading.
Common questions
How do I use “MyFaceShape Shows the Closest Shape”?
A second shape may be near, and the app still picks one. If two outlines both seem close, look again at the chin and the jaw corners. That is usually where they split.
How do I use “The App Compares Forehead, Cheeks, and Jaw”?
The app compares forehead, cheeks, and jaw, then length. Decide which area is widest before you say a shape name. The widest point is what starts the name.
How do I use “MyFaceShape on a Straight-On Photo”?
A tilt or a profile weakens the widths. Clear the hairline only enough to see where the forehead ends. You are tracing a contour.
