Diamond Face for Men

A diamond face is widest at the cheekbones with a narrower forehead and a tapered chin: the outline is a rhombus. It is the rarest of the seven shapes and reads sculpted in photos. Styling goal: build width at the forehead line and keep the cheek zone unbroken.

Length : width
cheekbones ≫ forehead and jaw
Forehead
narrow, tapered at the temples
Jaw
angular, chin pointed but not dominant
Cheekbones
dramatically the widest point — the defining feature

What the proportions say

The midface is the visual centre of gravity; styles that frame the temples balance the upper and lower thirds against it.

Styling strategy

Diamond Face logic: Fill the temples: bangs, width at the forehead line, and frames that echo the cheekbones.

Common myths

Myth: Diamond faces should hide their cheekbones.

Actually: The cheekbones are the asset — the job is balancing forehead width against them, not covering them.

Myth: Diamond and heart are the same.

Actually: They mirror each other: heart is wide at the forehead tapering down; diamond is wide at the cheekbones with a narrower forehead.
