A lot of cultures around the world practice reading people’s faces or physiognomy as a way to discover their personal details. No wonder we get forehead wrinkles with all the emotion pouring through facial expressions it enables us to do.
According to a study published in Australia’sUniversity of New South Wales, certain face shapes create certain perceptions of people. See what each shape represents.
Wide forehead
You are rational and well-respected. You are a favourite among parents and elder people especially. At the same time, you are very sensitive, and quick to anger.
Small forehead
If you have a small or narrow forehead, you are unique and you don’t mind hanging out alone in your room. You are also very resistant to peer pressure and you’d rather be your own person than what society tells you to be.
Straight forehead
You never give up! A true go-getter that believes in reaping what you sow. You value punctuality and hate wasting time.
Curved forehead
You listen to your heart, a lot. You are very empathetic, smart and have a high sense of steering away from dangerous situations.
M-Shaped forehead
You are extremely creative. On top of that, you are naturally funny, and effortlessly charming, with an incredible eye for detail. However, keeping your cool is not your strong forte as you tend to be quite temperamental. Think of Kourtney Kardashian.
Sharp forehead
You are very decisive which might lead people to see you as stubborn. You are confident and love yourself for who you are. As you should!
