What Does a Square Chin Mean in Face Reading?
There is a specific kind of person I have learned to recognize the moment they sit down across from me: the client whose chin is wide, angular, and structurally prominent, whose jawline holds a firm, almost architectural line from ear to chin. These are, overwhelmingly in my three decades of practice, people who have already weathered something difficult in life and come out the other side more solid for it — retired generals, veteran contractors, long-tenured executives, and more than a few grandmothers who ran a household and a business simultaneously for forty years without complaint. This article is dedicated to that feature: the square chin, one of the most consistently favorable structures in the entire face-reading tradition, and one deeply tied to how a person’s story ends, not just how it begins.
As with every article in this series, I want to be clear about what follows: Mian Xiang (面相), the art of Chinese face reading, is a traditional symbolic system built on centuries of observation, not a scientific predictor of fate. Treat everything here as a framework for reflection, not a verdict. With that grounding established, let us begin properly.
The Chin as “Earth Pavilion” (地阁, Dì Gé)
Classical Chinese physiognomy divides the face into three horizontal zones, known as the Three Pavilions (三停, sān tíng): the upper third (forehead), governing early life and inherited fortune; the middle third (eyes, nose, cheekbones), governing midlife fortune and self-made achievement; and the lower third (mouth and chin), governing the later decades of life. Within this lower zone, the chin holds a special title of its own: the Earth Pavilion (地阁, Dì Gé), sometimes translated as “Earth Terrace” or “Earth Palace.” Where the forehead is linked to Heaven and early inherited fortune, the chin is linked to Earth — the ground a person eventually stands on, the foundation their life has built by its final chapters, and the stability (or instability) of their old age.
What the Earth Pavilion Oversees
The chin, as Earth Pavilion, is traditionally read across several overlapping domains:
- Later-life fortune — roughly the final third of a person’s life, traditionally the years from the early sixties onward.
- Willpower and determination — the chin’s physical prominence is read as a direct proxy for a person’s underlying resolve and staying power.
- Property, real estate, and material foundation — “Earth” carries strong classical associations with land, housing, and tangible material security.
- Subordinates and followers — a person’s capacity to build and retain a loyal team, staff, or community around them in later life.
I have written about the surrounding mouth structure extensively in my companion guides on lip fullness, teeth, and smile width. The chin is the final structural anchor of the lower face, and I will show you exactly how it interacts with the mouth above it in Part 8 of this article.
Square Chin vs. Its Companion Shapes
This article exists alongside three companion pieces — Pointed Chin, Long Chin, and Short Chin — each covering a different chin structure with its own distinct reading. A square chin is neither simply “long” nor simply “wide” in isolation; it is defined by its width, its angularity, and the firm, well-defined line of the jaw beneath it. Where a pointed chin (see my companion article) tapers to a narrow point, and a rounded chin curves softly, a square chin holds a clear, structural, almost geometric edge — and this structural firmness is the visual key to everything the classical tradition reads into it.
The Core Square Chin Reading: Willpower, Authority, and Staying Power
Across classical texts and my own client observations, a square chin is consistently associated with a specific, powerful cluster of traits:
- Strong willpower and determination — an ability to commit to a course of action and see it through despite obstacles.
- Natural authority and command presence — a face that reads as trustworthy to lead, even before the person has spoken.
- Physical and constitutional resilience — a structural firmness traditionally read as mirroring genuine physical hardiness.
- Favorable later-life fortune — of the four chin shapes covered in this series, the square chin carries the most consistently favorable reading for stability and security in one’s final decades.
- Stubbornness as the natural shadow — the same firm resolve that produces remarkable follow-through can also resist necessary change.

## Part 2 of 10
The Personality Traits Behind a Square Chin
If I had to summarize the square-chin personality in a single sentence, it would be this: a person built to finish what they start, even when finishing costs more than anyone anticipated at the beginning. Let us walk through each major trait in depth.
Unshakeable Willpower
The single most consistent thing I notice in square-chin clients is an almost physical quality of resolve — once a decision is made, it is rarely revisited casually. This is not stubbornness for its own sake in its healthiest expression; it is a genuine capacity to commit fully and follow through on that commitment across months or years, long after initial motivation would naturally fade for most people.
Natural Command Presence
Square-chin individuals are disproportionately represented, in my client base, among people who are asked to lead — not always because they sought the role, but because others instinctively defer to the sense of solidity their presence projects. This is a genuine asset in any leadership context, and one that, notably, tends to strengthen rather than fade with age, unlike some more purely appearance-based forms of charisma.
Physical and Constitutional Resilience
Classical readers associated the structural firmness of a square chin with genuine physical hardiness, and in my observation, this reading holds up reasonably well: square-chin clients often describe themselves, and are described by others, as the person in the family or team who simply does not get sick as often, who recovers faster from physical setbacks, and who can sustain demanding physical or logistical work longer than most.
Practical, Grounded Decision-Making
Square-chin individuals tend to favor grounded, practical decisions over speculative or purely idealistic ones — a natural alignment with the “Earth” association of this feature. Ask a square-chin client for a five-year vision, and they will typically answer in terms of concrete milestones rather than abstract aspiration.
I once consulted with a retired construction company owner whose square chin I noted within the first minute of our meeting. When I described the willpower and practical-decision-making traits back to him before he had said much about his career, he laughed and said, “I built that company by refusing to let a single bad month convince me to quit. Most people I competed against quit somewhere in year three or four. I just didn’t.” That is the square-chin reading in its purest, most literal expression.
Tactical Observations: How This Shows Up Day to Day
- They rarely abandon a project partway through, even when it becomes considerably harder than initially expected.
- They are frequently the one others turn to during a crisis, precisely because their presence reads as steady rather than panicked.
- They prefer concrete plans with clear milestones over open-ended, exploratory approaches.
- They can be slow to adopt a new method once an existing one is working, even when the new method is genuinely better.
- They rarely change their stated opinion in the middle of a disagreement, even when presented with a reasonable counterargument in the moment.
The Caution: Guarding Against Rigidity
I want to be direct about the single biggest risk in this profile. The same willpower that produces remarkable follow-through can, left unchecked, calcify into rigidity — an unwillingness to update a plan, a position, or a relationship even when the evidence clearly calls for it. A square-chin leader who refuses to pivot a failing strategy out of sheer resolve is applying a genuine strength in exactly the wrong direction.
The lesson I give every square-chin client is this: your determination is not in question. What benefits from deliberate practice is building in scheduled checkpoints — moments where you actively ask “is this still the right course, or am I simply continuing because I already started?” — since your natural instinct will always answer “keep going” by default, and that default needs an occasional, structured challenge.
This insight — that square-chin willpower needs a deliberate review mechanism rather than blind momentum — recurs throughout this article, in career (Part 4), in love (Part 5), and in the practical action plan (Part 9).
## Part 3 of 10
Wealth and Fortune: The Hidden Meaning of a Square Chin
The Earth Pavilion’s Governance of Later Life
As established in Part 1, the chin governs roughly the final third of a person’s life — traditionally the decades from the early sixties onward. A square chin is, among the four shapes covered in this series, the single most favorably read structure for this period: stable, secure, and generally free from the kind of late-life instability the tradition associates with a weaker or less developed Earth Pavilion.
Property and Material Foundation
Because “Earth” carries strong classical associations with land and material security, a well-formed square chin is traditionally read as favorable specifically for property and real estate fortune — the accumulation of tangible, durable assets rather than purely liquid or speculative wealth. In my professional observation, square-chin clients are disproportionately represented among long-term property owners and disproportionately underrepresented among clients who have lost a primary home to financial distress.
Subordinates, Staff, and the Loyalty Dividend
The Earth Pavilion also governs a person’s relationship with subordinates and followers — staff, employees, students, or a broader community that looks to the person for leadership. Square-chin individuals tend to retain loyal staff and long-tenured employees at a noticeably higher rate than average, in my client base, a pattern that compounds meaningfully over a multi-decade career: institutional knowledge stays in-house, succession planning proceeds more smoothly, and the practical costs of turnover are avoided.
A Comparison Table: Square Chin Wealth Pattern vs. the Other Three Chin Shapes
| Chin Shape | Later-Life Wealth Emphasis | Primary Mechanism |
| Square | Highest stability, strong property fortune | Willpower, staff loyalty, sustained execution |
| Pointed | More variable, benefits from active planning | Creativity and adaptability, needs deliberate saving |
| Long | Strong, patient, slow-building stability | Longevity and persistence |
| Short | Requires the most proactive planning | Fast decision-making, needs structured long-term saving |
I share this comparison because it reframes the square chin’s advantage honestly: it describes a favorable tendency, built into the underlying temperament, not an automatic guarantee that requires no effort at all.
A Consultation Example
A client of mine — a manufacturing plant manager with an unmistakably square chin — came to me in his late fifties, anxious about retirement despite a genuinely strong financial position. When we reviewed his history, the pattern was clear: three decades at the same company, a paid-off home, a small rental property acquired slowly in his forties, and a shop-floor staff several of whom had worked under him for over fifteen years. His anxiety, we discovered, was not really about his finances at all — it was the classic square-chin discomfort with the unstructured* nature of retirement itself, a life stage without the concrete milestones his temperament naturally organizes around. We built him a structured post-retirement plan — consulting work, a woodworking apprenticeship program for his former staff — and his anxiety resolved almost entirely once “retirement” itself became a project with a plan, rather than an open void.*
The Long View: Square Chin and the Reward of Sustained Effort
To close this part: the square chin’s wealth reading is, more than any other chin shape, about compounding the benefit of decades of consistent, undramatic effort into a genuinely stable later life. Understood and actively managed — particularly by building deliberate structure into the transition toward retirement, as shown above — this is one of the more reliably favorable long-run fortune readings in the entire face-reading tradition.
## Part 4 of 10
Career Implications
Why Leadership and Command Roles Are a Natural Fit
A square chin reads, almost universally across the client populations I have worked with, as a face built for authority. Any career where subordinates, teams, or the public need to trust a person’s steadiness under pressure — executive leadership, military and law enforcement command, large-scale project management, judiciary roles — benefits directly from this feature’s natural command presence.
Careers Where a Square Chin Tends to Excel
- Executive and operational leadership — sustained willpower directly supports long-horizon strategic execution.
- Military, law enforcement, and emergency command roles — the combination of physical resilience and steady presence under pressure is a direct professional asset.
- Construction, engineering, and large-scale project management — practical, grounded, milestone-based thinking aligns naturally with these fields.
- Judiciary and arbitration roles — a reading of fairness and unshakeable resolve supports authority and trust in decision-making positions.
- Long-tenure institutional roles generally — government service, established family businesses, and any field that rewards multi-decade commitment over rapid career-hopping.
Where Friction Tends to Arise
Square-chin individuals can struggle in environments that reward constant, rapid pivoting — early-stage startups iterating weekly, fast fashion, or highly speculative creative fields where yesterday’s firm plan is expected to be abandoned today. This is not a competence gap; it is a genuine temperament mismatch between a structure built for sustained execution and an environment that structurally punishes sustained commitment to any single approach.
The Recurring Theme: Pair With an Adaptable, Fast-Pivoting Colleague
A pattern I have observed repeatedly: the most successful square-chin professionals in fast-changing industries are rarely operating without support. They are frequently paired, formally or informally, with a more adaptable colleague — often, fittingly, someone with the pointed or short chin profile covered in my companion articles — who brings the rapid-pivot instinct the square-chin leader’s own temperament does not generate naturally.
Leadership: A Special Note
Square-chin leaders inspire genuine confidence and stability, but I always add one caution in consultation: unshakeable resolve, communicated without room for dissent, can quietly suppress valuable pushback from a team. The strongest square-chin leaders I have worked with deliberately build a formal mechanism — a designated devil’s-advocate role, a scheduled strategy review — that forces their own default resolve to be actively challenged on a regular cadence, rather than relying on team members to volunteer disagreement against an instinctively formidable presence.
## Part 5 of 10
Love, Relationships, and Marriage Meaning
A Grounding, Stabilizing Presence
Square-chin individuals bring a genuine sense of stability to a relationship — partners consistently describe feeling secure, protected, and confident that commitments made will be honored. In dating contexts, this reads as a quiet but powerful form of attraction: less about immediate charisma and more about a growing, accumulating sense of trust over repeated interactions.
The Stubbornness Risk in Conflict
The determination that serves this profile so well elsewhere becomes its central relationship risk in conflict: square-chin partners can dig into a position during a disagreement with the same resolve they apply to a business decision, making ordinary relationship conflict resolution — which often requires flexibility and compromise rather than “winning” — considerably harder than it needs to be.
Long-Term Marriage: Built to Last, With One Caveat
Across long-married square-chin clients, marriages tend to be durable and stable, consistent with the broader later-life stability reading from Part 3. The one recurring caveat I raise directly: durability is not the same as ongoing responsiveness. A square-chin partner can maintain a stable, committed marriage while genuinely under-adapting to a spouse’s changing needs over the decades, simply because “this is working, so why change it” is the profile’s natural default assumption.
The Practical Relationship Checklist
- Does your square-chin partner revisit and update relationship agreements periodically, or does stability shade into an unwillingness to discuss change at all?
- In conflict, is there a mechanism — a cooling-off period, an agreed signal — that allows a firmly stated position to be revisited once emotions settle?
- Is the partner’s genuine steadiness being actively appreciated and named, since this profile rarely seeks credit for the quiet reliability they provide?
Guidance for the Square-Chin Individual
The most useful advice I give in consultation is straightforward: schedule regular, low-stakes check-ins with your partner specifically about what is and is not working, rather than waiting for a problem to become large enough to force a conversation your natural temperament would otherwise avoid initiating. Treat relationship maintenance the same way you would treat maintaining a long-term asset — with the same deliberate, scheduled attention, rather than assuming stability requires no active management at all.
Compatibility Considerations
Square-chin individuals tend to pair especially well with more emotionally expressive, adaptable partners who bring flexibility and spontaneity the square-chin partner’s own temperament does not generate naturally, while the square-chin partner provides the grounding and follow-through the more adaptable partner may lack. Two square-chin partners together can build an exceptionally stable, durable partnership, provided both actively guard against the shared risk of neither partner initiating necessary change when it is genuinely needed.
## Part 6 of 10
Health Indications in Face Reading
I want to open this section with the same caveat I give every client in person: nothing here is a medical diagnosis, and any genuine health concern should always be directed to a qualified physician.
The Classical Reading of a Strong, Well-Formed Chin
In traditional Chinese medicine and its adjacent physiognomy tradition, the chin and lower jaw area is loosely associated with the Kidney system, which governs bone strength, vitality, and — significantly for this article — the aging process itself. A strong, well-formed square chin is traditionally read as a sign of robust Kidney vitality supporting a resilient, healthy aging process, consistent with the later-life fortune themes discussed throughout this article.
Jaw Tension and Stress
Because the jaw muscles around a square chin are often more developed and more visibly engaged than average, practitioners in this tradition have long paid attention to visible jaw clenching or tension in this profile specifically, traditionally reading persistent tension here as an externally visible sign of the same suppressed stress or unexpressed frustration discussed in my companion Teeth Face Reading article’s section on teeth grinding — since a square-chin individual’s tendency to hold firm rather than vent frustration verbally can manifest physically in this specific area.
Reading Constitution, Not Diagnosing Disease
As always: this section describes a general constitutional tendency and traditional energetic pattern, not a diagnosis. It should never replace a physician’s evaluation.
Practical Takeaway
If you have a square chin, the traditional reading suggests a genuinely resilient constitution — protect it by building conscious, regular outlets for the stress your temperament tends to hold internally rather than express, since the same strength that carries you through hardship without complaint can also mean you delay addressing accumulated tension until it manifests physically, in the jaw or elsewhere.

Square Chin in Men vs Women
The Classical Gendered Emphasis
Historical face reading texts, written within the social structures of their era, tended to read a square chin in men primarily through the lens of authority, physical strength, and leadership in public and military life, while a square chin in women was sometimes read with more ambivalence — occasionally associated with an “overly masculine” or overly assertive temperament considered less conventionally desirable within the domestic-fortune framework those texts applied to women. These readings reflect the constrained gender norms of their era, not a scientifically grounded or fair assessment.
Why I Teach the Modern Reframe
In my own practice, I read a square chin identically regardless of a client’s gender: as a sign of genuine willpower, authority, and favorable later-life stability. The underlying mechanisms — sustained execution, command presence, physical resilience — operate identically across genders in every modern client population I have observed, and I actively push back on any lingering suggestion that this feature is somehow less desirable or less “appropriate” for a woman to carry with confidence.
Where Gender Still Matters — Social Perception, Not the Feature Itself
The one place gender remains genuinely relevant is social perception around assertiveness, echoing a theme raised throughout this series. A square-jawed woman in a leadership position may still, in some professional cultures, face a subtly different reception than a square-jawed man exhibiting the identical trait cluster — a well-documented pattern in broader research on gendered leadership perception, not a face-reading claim. Being aware of this asymmetry allows a square-chin woman to lean fully into her natural authority with the confidence the feature itself has always warranted.
## Part 8 of 10
Square Chin Combined With Other Facial Features
Square Chin Combined With Mouth and Lip Reading
If you have not read my companion guides on Thick Lips Face Reading, Wide Smile Meaning, and Lower Lip Meaning, I recommend doing so before this section, as the combinations below build directly on that foundation. A square chin paired with a wide, warm smile is one of the most consistently favorable overall combinations in this entire series: steady, resilient authority (from the chin) reinforced by genuine social warmth and rapport-building (from the smile), often producing leaders who are both deeply trusted and genuinely well-liked, rather than merely respected from a distance.
Square Chin Paired With a Strong, Straight Nose
Since the nose is the classical “Officer of Wealth,” a square chin combined with a strong, straight, well-proportioned nose is read as a particularly powerful overall fortune combination — steady, disciplined wealth accumulation throughout midlife (from the nose) compounding into secure, stable later-life fortune (from the chin). This combination is, in my observation, disproportionately common among clients who have built and successfully exited a long-term family business.
Square Chin and Jaw Width Together
A square chin should be considered alongside the width of the jaw leading into it. A square chin with an equally wide, well-developed jawline intensifies the overall reading toward physical resilience and command presence. A square chin on a comparatively narrower jaw softens the intensity somewhat, suggesting the same underlying willpower expressed with more restraint and less overt physical dominance in how it is perceived by others.
Square Chin and Forehead Shape
Since the forehead governs early-life and inherited fortune, in the Three Pavilions framework introduced in Part 1, a square chin paired with a broad, well-formed forehead suggests a person whose fortune is strong across the entire arc of life — favorable inheritance and early opportunity, compounding into a stable, secure later chapter. A square chin paired with a more modest forehead suggests someone whose strongest fortune is specifically self-built and concentrated in the later decades, a “finishes stronger than they started” pattern I have observed with some regularity in self-made square-chin clients.
The Whole-Face Principle
As always in this tradition, no single feature should be read in isolation. I encourage every reader to treat this article as one important layer in a larger portrait, not the entire portrait itself.
## Part 9 of 10
How to Strengthen Your Fortune If You Have a Square Chin
Behavioral Tools: Building a Scheduled Review Mechanism
Given the rigidity risk discussed throughout this article, the single most practical adjustment is structural: build a recurring, calendared review point — quarterly for a business strategy, annually for a major life decision — where you deliberately ask whether your current course is still the right one, rather than relying on your natural instinct, which will default to “continue” without external prompting.
Behavioral Tools: Practicing Voiced Flexibility
Because your resolve is often read by others as final the moment you state it, practice explicitly signaling openness when you genuinely have it — a simple verbal habit of saying “I’m open to being convinced otherwise here” before stating your view can meaningfully change how much genuine pushback and useful dissent you receive from a team or partner who would otherwise assume the matter is already settled.
Behavioral Tools: Building Deliberate Stress Outlets
Given the jaw-tension pattern discussed in Part 6, I recommend building a regular, physical stress-release practice — deliberate exercise, structured relaxation, or simply a scheduled outlet for verbal venting with a trusted confidant — precisely because your natural tendency is to hold tension internally rather than express it, and that tendency benefits from a structured counter-practice rather than being left unaddressed.
Feng Shui and Environmental Adjustments
In the broader Chinese metaphysics tradition I also teach, a person whose fortune runs strongly through the Earth Pavilion benefits from an environment that reinforces stability and groundedness: solid, well-anchored furniture arrangement, particularly in the areas of a home associated with rest and long-term planning, and — fittingly, given the chin’s property association — genuine attention to the stability and condition of one’s actual physical home, which this tradition treats as a direct extension of the Earth Pavilion’s fortune.
The Qi Men Dun Jia Lens: Charts Reveal Leverage, Not Outcomes
In my Qi Men Dun Jia consultations, I remind square-chin clients specifically that their natural strength is sustained execution once a direction is chosen — which makes correctly timing when to commit to that direction especially valuable, since once committed, this profile will rarely revisit the choice easily. A favorable chart window is, for this profile, best used to carefully select the commitment before making it, rather than to second-guess a commitment already made.
A 90-Day Starting Plan
- Weeks 1–2: Identify one major ongoing commitment — professional or personal — that has not been genuinely reviewed in over a year.
- Weeks 3–4: Schedule a structured review of that commitment, explicitly asking whether it remains the right course.
- Weeks 5–8: Practice the “open to being convinced” verbal habit in at least two team or family discussions per week.
- Weeks 9–10: Build a consistent physical stress-release practice, tracking whether jaw tension or related physical stress markers improve.
- Weeks 11–12: Review: has at least one long-held position been genuinely reconsidered? Has your team or partner reported feeling more heard? Adjust the plan based on what actually moved.

FAQ and Final Thoughts
Does a square chin always mean someone is stubborn?
Not always in a negative sense — it means someone has strong follow-through and resolve, which is stubbornness only when applied without periodic reassessment, as discussed in Parts 2 and 9. The trait itself is a genuine asset; the shadow side is manageable with deliberate practice.
Is a square chin always a good sign in face reading?
In the classical tradition, yes, broadly — it is read as one of the more favorable structures, particularly for later-life stability, as detailed in Part 3. As with every feature in this series, it describes tendency, not guaranteed destiny.
Can jaw exercises or cosmetic procedures change my chin’s reading?
Structural change to the jaw and chin, whether through exercise, orthodontic treatment, or cosmetic surgery, is read within this tradition’s own logic the same way I addressed similar changes in my companion Teeth Face Reading article: it can shift the outward-facing symbolic signal over time, though the underlying character tendencies described in Part 2 are shaped by temperament and life experience, not by bone structure alone.
Does a square chin mean someone will definitely be wealthy in old age?
No — it describes a favorable underlying tendency toward stability and disciplined accumulation, not a guarantee. Effort, circumstance, and the deliberate practices in Part 9 still determine the actual outcome.
Is the reading different for men and women?
The underlying trait cluster is read identically across genders in my practice, though the surrounding social perception can differ, as discussed in Part 7.
How does a square chin compare to a round chin?
This article focuses specifically on comparing the square chin to its three angular and length-based companion shapes — pointed, long, and short — covered in my companion articles. A round chin, characterized by soft curves rather than firm angles, carries its own distinct reading emphasizing adaptability and sociability, which I address in other guides within this broader chin-reading series.
Common Myths About Square Chin Face Reading, Debunked
- Myth: A square chin always means someone is aggressive. It means someone has strong resolve and command presence, which is entirely compatible with warmth and approachability, especially when paired with the features discussed in Part 8.
- Myth: A square chin guarantees leadership success. It creates a favorable underlying temperament for leadership, not an automatic guarantee; skill, judgment, and the deliberate practices in Part 9 still determine actual outcomes.
- Myth: Square-chin people never change their minds. They change their minds less easily than some other profiles by default, but the practices in Part 9 show this can be actively and successfully counterbalanced.
A Short Glossary of Terms Used in This Article
- Mian Xiang (面相) — the general Chinese term for the art of face reading.
- Sān tíng (三停) — the “Three Pavilions,” the classical division of the face into upper, middle, and lower thirds.
- Dì Gé (地阁) — the “Earth Pavilion,” the classical title for the chin, governing later-life fortune.
Historical Sources and Cross-Cultural Notes
The Three Pavilions framework referenced throughout this article draws on the classical Chinese physiognomy canon, passed down through generations of practitioners. Cross-culturally, it is worth noting that a strong, prominent chin has been associated with willpower and authority in Western physiognomy traditions as well, from ancient Greek philosophical writing on facial character to modern popular psychology — a notable point of convergence across otherwise independently developed traditions.
Final Thoughts
A square chin is, in my professional experience, one of the most consistently favorable structures a face can carry — not for flashy early success, but for the deep, compounding stability it tends to produce across an entire lifetime, and especially in its final decades. Read this article not as a verdict, but as an invitation: to notice the pattern in your own face or in someone you love, and to consciously build the deliberate review practices in Part 9 that let this feature’s remarkable strength stay genuinely responsive rather than merely immovable. I encourage you to explore the companion articles on pointed, long, and short chins referenced throughout, since understanding your own chin shape fully means understanding how it differs from its alternatives.
