New Study Says You Can Determine Your Personality By The Shape of Your Face

DM - Have you ever looked at yourself in the mirror to see what messages you’ve unknowingly been giving off to those around you? Face-reading experts believe the shape of your face can reveal basic personality traits and determine your overall approach to life. ‘Your face is saying something,’ expert Jean Haner, author of The Wisdom Of Your Face, told Cosmopolitan. ‘You’re born with with features you have for a reason. The face is a map of your personality as well as your whole life.’ Ms Haner reveals what your face shape says about you, based on her studies in 3,000-year-old face reading derived from Chinese medicine.

DIAMOND FACE SHAPE

Singer Taylor Swift, 25, and actress Ashley Greene, 28, have this common face shape. It is characterised by being pointed towards the forehead and chin but wide in the middle. ‘This refers to someone who likes to take control and wants things a certain way,’ Ms Haner told Elle UK. ‘They’re also very detail-oriented and because of that they produce quality work.’

OVAL FACE SHAPE

People with oval faces are practical, methodical and overachievers in their careers. Ms Haner added to Elle UK that people with oval face shapes are also compassionate: ‘This person always knows all the right things to say, so they can make someone feel welcome and comfortable.’

TRIANGLE FACE SHAPE

This means the face is narrower at the forehead but wide at the jawline. Men and women with these faces tend to be artistic, creative and sensitive but also fiery. ‘This shape means you usually want to be in charge,’ said Ms Haner told Cosmopolitan. ‘And the more narrow your forehead is at toward the top of the person’s head, the more they have to be in control.’She said people with triangle face shapes are usually ‘very successful’.

SQUARE FACE SHAPE

Men and women with square faces tend to possess a sharp wit and analytical mind. ‘It typically refers to someone who is really gung-ho and into taking on huge projects because they have so much stamina,’ said Ms Haner.

HEART FACE SHAPE

A heart face shape is characterised by a wide forehead and narrow chin. ‘It speaks to someone who has incredible inner strength but can also be stubborn because they are so strong-minded,’ said Ms Haner. ‘They’re like little energizer bunnies. But their strength is not from stamina, it’s about inner power.’Other common personality traits include being ‘pushy’, having ‘a strong intuition’ and being ‘very creative’.

RECTANGLE FACE SHAPE

People with this type of face value logic and are really good thinkers. ‘They’re usually planners in some way and don’t often talk about their feelings,’ said Ms Haner. ‘However, they do work out regularly—they have to work off inner tension that results from constantly living in their own heads.’

All very interesting stuff. But I’m not sure how serious we can take this face reading expert when she left out one of the most important face shapes in the history of mankind. I’m obviously talking about the King face. Those who have faces that look like kings display traits that include power, prestige, super bowl rings, fame, fortune, pageviews, domination, guile, cunning, wit, charm, huge brain and jackhammer. The following are famous King Faced men.
