Facial Symmetry & Analysis Results
Why Face Shape Results Are Estimates
Why Face Shape Results Are Estimates starts with the outer line of the face, not with one feature in the middle of it. Results are estimates because a photo is one angle and real faces fall between categories.
Read the result as a description of that photo. Evenness and shape are separate lines. 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 “results are estimates”, stay with the contour. Name the shape only after you can see where the face is long and where it is wide.
The estimate is still useful as the closest shape. Compare the shape name, then the lines, then the symmetry note.
A change often comes from a new angle or new light. The walkthrough is the photo, the landmarks, and the shape.
Each panel is a step in the estimate. A face scan can reveal the length and the three widths that chose the shape, plus a separate symmetry note.
When two names both seem possible
It reveals proportions, not a verdict. A personal report is those sections from your photo, in this order: shape, measurements, symmetry.
Personal means the lines came from your selfie. The discovery is the closest type.
The app is the iPhone tool for that check. Start by choosing a front-facing photo and running the scan.
Read the shape before any extra note. Exploring the seven means seeing oval through triangle as the set your result comes from.
Your photo lands on one of them. Personal means the outline is measured from your photo, not from a sample chart.
The tool's job is the closest shape. View the shape name, then the lines that chose it.
The analysis is those two things first.
This check should describe the same face as the section above it. If it does not, the photo is the thing to fix. 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.

A personal report is those sections from your photo, in this order: shape, measurements, symmetry. Decide which area is widest before you say a shape name. The widest point is what starts the name.
How do I use “How to View Your Face Shape Analysis”?
View the shape name, then the lines that chose it. Clear the hairline only enough to see where the forehead ends. You are tracing a contour.
