Total facial convexity angle is the angle created by drawing a line from the glabella (tip of forehead) to your pronasale (nosetip) and from your pronasale to your pogonion (chin).
Facial convexity angle is the angle created by drawing a line from your glabella to your subnasale (point where philtrum touches nose) and from your subnasale to your pogonion.
These angles are a decent indicator of whether you are recessed or not and attractive people tend to have their angles in the higher ranges (Ideally it should be >141° for TFCA; >167° for FCA) and smaller angles usually indicate overbite/mandibular recession while overly large angles indicate underbite/maxilla recession.
Good facial convexity angles:
Very attractive side profiles.
Bad facial convexity angles:
Note how they both suffer from bite problems/recession.
How your haircut can help you hide your recession (or make it look worse):
Case in point: Jon Kortajarena (Probably the only recessed supermodel):
Extremely apparent mandible recession.
Can't find good side profile pics of him with fringes but you get the idea, he doesn't look recessed at all in these pics.
TLDR: Fringes are better than slickbacks.

How your haircut can help you hide your recession (or make it look worse):
- A fringe-type haircut with bangs and forward volume can help make your facial convexity angles look lower and make you look less recessed.
- A slickback-type of haircut with volume on top can make your facial convexity appear higher and make you look more recessed.
Case in point: Jon Kortajarena (Probably the only recessed supermodel):
- With slickback hair:
Extremely apparent mandible recession.
- With fringe:
