Some are heart-shaped: vintage face shapes diagrams.

I know there are not big changes. I wanted to have fun with face shapes mostly.

Also most of my pens run out midway

What face type are Timothée Chalamet and Josh O’Connor ?

i don't know too much spotting this accurately, i'd assume josh has more of an oblong face and timothee would be more squarish or triangular? both would be suited by longer curls more imo.

in kibbe's system, josh is a dramatic and timothee a flamboyant gamine. dramatics tend to have longer, narrower faces, and FGs have contrasting yin & yang, i.e. more unpredictable lines.

sadly neither dress their type anymore, two more actors down with a standard classic or natural styling like most men. though chalamet has had some great FG wardrobe moments famously.

Here's a fun face shape practice I did

I'm gonna sleep now.

Ran has a diamond shaped face and Rindou has a heart shaped face. That's it.

Visual Typing - MBTI Head Shapes

After collecting more evidence over the past two years here is an updated chart of the different head/face shapes for the MBTI types.

the general markers:

1. Introverts have thin faces, extroverts have wide faces (the only exception being xSTJs, more on that later), scientific studies about this:

- https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-020-65358-6

- https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0191886916309096

2. xxTPs have very rectangular faces with pronounced square chins. ExTPs in particular are prone to bulldog-like underbites, giving a stereotypically masculine appearance

3. xxFJs have smaller underveloped jaws with small chins, giving a triangular/ heart-shape, feminine appearance

just a hypothesis but 2. and 3. are probably related to testosterone-influence during embryonic development hence the correlation for both appearance and gendered character traits (feeling vs thinking, emotion vs ratio)

4. *for some reason if someone has this specific long jaw misalignment it -has- to be a male ISFJs (photo example before and after lefort 1 jaw surgery). (like, not -all- male ISFJs have it, but if someone has it you can bet it’s an ISFJ). haven’t seen this in INFJs or in female ISFJs yet

5. Te/Fi-users have average jaw sizes and therefore go more into the circle/oval direction. xSTJs in particular often have “egg-shape” heads. xNTJs look somehow more triangular than their Si/Ne-counterparts but still more egg-ish than xxFJs.

behold, an xSTJ:

6. for why ISTJ and ESTJ are “switched” in head width and they are the only MBTI pair that is an exception from the I/E-width-rule I only have this half-baked explanation that it’s not about introversion/extroversion in a social sense but more in a “openness to sensations” sense that ESTJs with their inf Fi are more stubborn and actually more withdrawn than ISTJs(??)

7. ENTJs have the most pronounced foreheads you’ve ever seen

8. fat can disguise the head shape, but not always. e.g. see those two examples of ExFJs before and after weightloss. the chin is still sharp and triangular even when overweight:

meanwhile the rectangle shape of this ISTP only becomes visible with lower body fat:

9. overdeveloped masseter muscles can distract from the chin shape. e.g. take this picture of young INFP Brad Pitt. one could easily fall into the trap thinking he has an IxTP head shape when in reality his chin has a normal Te-user size and it’s just his masseter muscles distracting from the shape. the curved indentations between chin and muscle are a good clue. (compare it to pictures of him being older with less pronounced masseter muscles, then his real chin shape is more obvious)

comparing with ISTP Sigourney Weaver, her rectangle head shape is visible during all ages regardless of muscle mass

as a novice those differences can be hard to track. train your eye by observing photos of people during different age stages, try to imagine the face without any soft tissue and bone only.
