Our free face shape detector uses Google’s MediaPipe Face Landmarker, a machine-learning model that maps 478 precise landmarks across your face in real time. Unlike quizzes that rely on guesswork, the tool takes actual measurements from your photo or camera feed and compares them against the geometric proportions of the seven recognized face shapes.
Start your camera or upload a clear, front-facing photo. Everything is processed on your device — your image is never uploaded to any server.
The model measures your face length, forehead width, cheekbone width, jaw width, jawline angle, and chin taper in pixel-accurate detail.
Your measurements are scored against all seven face shape profiles, and you instantly see your best match together with a confidence score.
Every face is unique, but nearly all faces fall into one of seven broad categories defined by the relationship between face length, forehead, cheekbones, jawline, and chin. Knowing your category makes choosing hairstyles, beard styles, glasses, and makeup dramatically easier, because most styling advice is written per face shape.
An oval face is about one and a half times longer than it is wide, with a forehead slightly wider than the gently rounded jaw. It is often called the most balanced face shape because the proportions sit between all the other categories. Styling: almost everything works — experiment freely with short or long hair, most glasses frames, and any beard length. Avoid heavy fringes that shorten the face if you want to keep the natural balance.
A round face is nearly as wide as it is long, with full cheeks, a soft jawline, and a rounded chin. The widest point is at the cheeks. Styling: add height and angles — volume on top, side parts, layers that fall below the chin, angular or rectangular glasses, and beards that are shorter on the sides and longer at the chin all add flattering definition.
A square face has a strong, angular jaw that is almost as wide as the cheekbones and forehead, with a relatively flat chin line. It reads as bold and structured. Styling: soften the angles — round or oval glasses, textured layers, waves, and side-swept styles work beautifully. Circular beards and light stubble soften the jaw without hiding it.
An oblong face is clearly longer than it is wide — usually more than 1.6 times — with fairly straight sides and a gently rounded chin. Styling: add width, not height. Side-swept fringes, chin- to shoulder-length cuts with volume at the sides, and tall or oversized glasses frames visually shorten and balance the face. Avoid very long, flat hair and high pompadours.
A heart-shaped face is widest at the forehead, tapering through high cheekbones down to a narrow, often pointed chin — sometimes with a widow’s peak hairline. Styling: balance the taper with weight at the jawline — chin-length bobs, side parts, and bottom-heavy or rimless glasses. A fuller beard adds width to a narrow chin.
The rarest shape: dramatic cheekbones form the widest point, while both the forehead and jawline are narrow, ending in a delicately pointed chin. Styling: show off the cheekbones or soften them — cat-eye and oval glasses, fringes that widen the forehead, and styles with volume at the chin all work well. Avoid extra volume at the cheekbone level.
A triangle face is widest at the jaw, with a narrower forehead — the opposite of the heart shape. Styling: draw the eye upward — volume at the crown and temples, top-heavy or browline glasses, and shorter sides with fuller tops. Keep beards short so they don’t add extra width to an already strong jaw.
Don’t want to use the camera? You can measure your face shape the old-fashioned way with a soft measuring tape and a mirror. Take these four measurements:
Then compare: if length is noticeably greater than width with balanced features, you’re likely oval or oblong. If length and width are similar, you’re round or square depending on how angular your jaw is. A forehead wider than the jaw points to heart, the reverse points to triangle, and cheekbones far wider than both suggest diamond. Our detector runs exactly this comparison — just with pixel-level accuracy and no measuring tape.
Your face shape is the starting point for almost every personal-styling decision. Hairstylists use it to choose cuts that balance your proportions, opticians use it to recommend frames that complement rather than repeat your features, makeup artists contour based on it, and barbers shape beards around it. Knowing whether you’re round, oval, or heart-shaped turns vague advice like “get layers” into concrete choices that actually suit you. It’s also just fun — face shape is one of the most-searched beauty questions in the world, and now you can answer it in seconds with real measurements instead of a guess.
