Step 1: Gather Your Materials
The first step in measuring your face shape is to gather your materials. You will need a tape measure and a mirror.
Step 2: Measure Your Forehead
The next step is to measure your forehead. Start at the widest part of your forehead (usually the hairline) and measure across to the other side. Write down this measurement.
Step 3: Measure Your Cheekbones
Now, measure your cheekbones. Start at the point where your cheekbones are the widest (usually below the outer corner of your eyes) and measure across to the other side. Write down this measurement.
Step 4: Measure Your Jawline
Measure your jawline next. Start at the tip of your chin and measure across to the point below your ear where your jawbone starts to angle upwards. Double this measurement to get the full length of your jawline. Write down this measurement.
Step 5: Measure Your Face Length
Finally, measure the length of your face. Start at the center of your hairline and measure down to the tip of your chin. Write down this measurement.
