What is the rarest face shape?
Diamond is the rarest face shape, affecting roughly 5 to 10 percent of the population. Triangle (pear) and oblong (rectangle) sit in the next tier. Oval and round are the two most common shapes globally, with heart and square in the middle.
Diamond face shapes are narrow at the forehead, widest at the cheekbones, and taper to a pointed chin. The combination is uncommon because most faces are either widest at the temples (heart, oval) or broadly similar in width across the forehead, cheek, and jaw zones (round, square).
Rarity in face shape does not correlate with attractiveness. Editorial casting often favours diamond and inverted-triangle faces because the strong cheekbone and clean jaw line photograph well from multiple angles. Several supermodels and award-winning actors have diamond faces.
The Hairstyle Analysis tool reads your face shape from a single selfie. If you do not know which shape you have, the analysis names it and shows you the eight cuts that flatter the shape it identifies.
