## About this resource

Oblong Face Shape is an independent, informational website about the oblong (long) face shape.
It covers what an oblong face shape is, its characteristics and proportions, a labeled face
diagram, how to measure forehead, cheekbone and jaw width and total face length, and how
hairstyles, glasses, sunglasses, beard styles, makeup and eyebrow shape can balance long facial
proportions. It also compares the oblong face shape with oval, diamond, rectangle, square, round
and heart face shapes.

The site includes an interactive "What's my face shape?" quiz that scores answers in the visitor's
browser. It requires no photo upload, performs no image or biometric processing, and stores no
answers.

Face-shape categories on this site are presented as a descriptive styling convention, not as a
medical, biometric or scientific classification. The site does not rank face shapes by
attractiveness and does not claim that face shape predicts personality.
