The jaw line is one of the most important features a man has, if you want to look good, it is imperative that your jaw is well developed. So what is the ideal jaw line?
The jaw line is formed by the mandible:
Which can then be split into two parts, the ramus, and the body:
Both of these parts are important in creating the ideal jaw. First and foremost, your jaw needs to be at the perfect angle.
Many believe the perfect gonial angle to be around 130, this, I feel, is wrong. For a man, 130 is far to steep, an angle of 100-110 is perfect. Look at these two pictures:
Emma Watson has a gonial angle of around 130, while Todd’s is far steeper at around 100. As we can see, Todd’s is far more masculine then Watson’s. This is because a low gonial angle creates a square jaw, a very dimorphic feature.
However, not all angles are created equal. You may have noticed that the mandible body slopes at similar angles, while it is the ramus that is the most different. The ideal ramus, is straight and long, while the ideal mandible slopes slightly downward before sweeping upright at the chin area.
Compare this with the original, and look at the difference.
See how weak and pathetic O’Pry’s jaw is compared to the morphs. A long, straight ramus is integral in creating the coveted square jaw look. A comparison from the front
See how much of a difference it makes when the ramus is straightened? A square jaw is ridiculously ideal, look at this comparison between Chico and O’Pry
The mandible body is of paramount importance too, look at the difference here:
When the mandible is straightened (not too straight, remember) it looks far more better then when it is swung downwards; the mandible body is very important in creating the square jaw. Furthermore, the length of the mandible body is key too. Look at this morph:
When it grows forward and is lengthened, the jaw becomes much more masculine and aesthetic.
As aforementioned, the ramus should be straight both from the side and from the front.
However, when one has this look, the bigonial width is often in line with the bizygomatic width, or outstrips it. The zygos should always be slightly wider than the jaw. if you don’t have this naturally, I wouldn’t bother attempting to achieve it, after all, most PSL 8’s don’t have this feature.
Furthermore, the gonions should be squared and sharp:
Compare this with the original:
And another example:
To conclude, the ideal jaw is square, sharp and forward. It should be well developed and wide, though not too wide, slightly narrower than the bizygomatic width.
