Middle part looks better on Kendall!

I saw another video on a different channel that said a longer middle third was masculine but the way you described a longer middle third being elegant and how is not good or bad but rather just different is so nice to hear because our society tends to be obsessed with neotenous features.

@stylemejenn

It's not a bad thing to have a longer middle third! I think it gives a person such a beautiful look. I agree that it's so sad our society pushes for neoteny - not only in North American standards of beauty but also in Asian beauty standards especially. It's almost like people have weird fetishes about super youthful faces... it's uncomfortable!!

I would argue that society prefers a less “youthful” look right now and favors a more “mature” or serious look.

​@@sarahs.9678How? Just take what's trendy nowadays and what was trendy some decades ago. In makeup, for example, the classic 50s femininity is pushed away, we prefer softer lips, blurred lines, less contrast... And we liked that strong makeup until the 90-2000s. Same with clothing: "mature and serious" garments as collared shirts are less popular than "youthful" options (t-shirts). Even the body proportions (most of models nowadays are way more narrow/teenage-like compared to 90s supermodels).

​​@@katitadebbut wrinkles removal is de-aging 😄 fake hair also gives the illusion of youth, women also lose their hair a bit as they age. big eyes are a beauty norm I think... and no body hair which only happens naturally pre-puberty

So mentioning the elegance of a longer middle third, I always struggle with styles and makeup because I can easily make myself look 'elegant' with my features, but sometimes, I want to be 'cute' instead. I would love a video that talks about pushing mature looking features to be more youthful.

@stylemejenn

Жыл бұрын

Thanks for your interest in my content! Yes you're right - I'd need to look at the whole face to make an accurate recommendation, but generally speaking if you have a wider face I wouldn't recommend blunt bangs because covering your forehead reduces the vertical length of your face and can make your face appear wider. If you want to work with bangs, thinner styles of curtain bangs or side-swept bangs that expose some part of your forehead would be more ideal. As for a weak chin, my next video might help! I'm going to talk about long/protruding chins and the visual effect of hair colour on the chin, so I think you'll find it helpful.

hey this is absolutely great!! please do talk about burqa 🙈

This is the video for me 😊 I have a diamond face but it's also wide. I always struggle with my parting. I tend to look bad with side bangs or hair in my face because the jaw and chin are subtle and forehead so small and cheeks so wide

You make excellent sense with your advice. But I also think that the symmetry of the face is an important consideration. For the average person (rather than models, actors and other "beautiful" people of your examples, the right and left sides of the face aren't symmetrical, and a side part looks better. I find a middle part highlights any flaws in the face and can make people look worse.

​@@stylemejennYou look Korean! Thing is, unless you've seen a LOT of ordinary Koreans who have not had at least one or two facial surgery procedures, you'll probably have trouble spotting it. Korean actors, actresses, performers etc. all get so much surgery these days that it's only with character actresses or comedians that you'll see "real" Korean facial types. And among the younger generations of ordinary people, there's also a lot of surgery going on. You have to look at Koreans aged 50, 55+ to see the real faces, and the range of Korean face types and features.

Is there a way to tell if you have a long or wide face? I feel at times I see on or the other in my own.

@stylemejenn

Жыл бұрын

Generally speaking if the length of the face is about 1.6 times greater than the width of the face it's considered the most balanced. So if your width to length ratio is 1:1.5 for example then technically your face would be considered short (or wide, since we're talking in proportions between width and length) and vice versa! But keep in mind that there are other features that could make your face appear longer or shorter than it actually is too ❤

The middle third of my (millennial) face is short, but my face is oval and chubby with a big forehead/low cranial top, and widest at the cheek/mouth, so the middle part doesn't look as good. Wonder what hair style would best suit my face type?

@stylemejenn

A side part makes it way easier to add root volume to your crown area if you have a low cranial top. It'll also help with drawing more attention to your eyes than the width of your cheeks :)

@@stylemejenn I apologise for being pain in the...derrière, but I have to ask this: having an oblong face, it looks even more elongated if I make my hair voluminous on the top. I know I have to make my face appear wider, to look proportional, and I can get it by adding volume on the sides. Is that correct? The problem is my hair. It's getting thinner, especially after Covid, and I don't know what haircut should I get.

The cut of the hair makes a difference too

So if you have a long face but the smallest part is between brow and tip of nose, can you still part in the middle?

@stylemejenn

Жыл бұрын

It's difficult for me to give you an accurate recommendation because if you have conflicting concerns like you explained, it would really depend on what your priority is, as well as on features other than the length of the face/middle third! But generally speaking, a short middle third (between brow to tip of nose) has a tendency to make the overall length of the face appear shorter as well, so I'd say you can still wear a middle part without having to worry about your face appearing too long. Hope that helps! :)
