People can be Jerks... I had a boss (48M) in high-school that would comment on my large forehead and would sometimes even rub it for good luck! Soooo funny right? Never even thought it was big before that but sure keep a side part now.
Some bosses are truly just horrible humans. One told me once (in front of co-workers) to get a manicure and address my ‘snaggly-ass’ nails. As a single mom with five kiddos at the time and less than generous salary, weekly manicures were NOT an option.
I had a boss, who I thought was giving me a well deserved promotion, call me in a meeting in his office to tell me that I needed to lose weight. It was horrifying and went on and on for like 30 mins. Yeah.
Oh man I had a boss that said sum about my hair not being done and I said you don’t pay me enough for that ish! I do not work there anymore, but that lady was something else
Normal forehead to me!! My boss also comments on my appearance telling me to eat a cheeseburger when she KNOWS I’m chronically Ill. People can be mean. Don’t listen to them 🤍
I've had three men make a point of pointing out physical flaws that I didn't really sweat myself. They were horribly toxic, abusive, misogynistic, arsehats. They go for insulting my generous forehead, my bottom teeth being wonky, and my weight. Called me a scarecrow and laughed. That fall, I put like 100 little scarecrows all over his office. Every where. For all I know they're still finding them.
I remember in high school this kid used to make fun of my forehead the entire class. He would laugh that the lights in the room were shining off of it. At lunch, we would sit outside and his friends would take mirrors to shine in my face at my "forehead." I also never thought it was big.
.......5 years later I saw him at someone's house that I was buying weed from and he was sucking up to me and trying to hit on me.
Sigh, seriously. My grandmother told me my forehead was big when I was like 7 and 30 years later I'm still super self conscious about it. The wrinkles aren't helping that either
Why do men feel the need to self-insert themselves into everything regarding womens issues? Women are disproportionately affected by a need to adhere to beauty standards to an extent that men just aren’t.
Hey bud. Unless I misread before typing this reply, this isn't ask women. This is a forum open to all where everyone is talking about their insecurities and for some reason you decided to tell someone theirs wasn't welcome here because... their gender? Women are affected by beauty standards more severely than men, yeah, but that doesn't mean someone should be waved off when they're just sharing an insecurity in line full of other people sharing their related insecurities lol. I'm a woman btw, not that it matters. Peace and love peace and love✌️
Edit: I was going to delete this reply, but I'm a fan of owning mistakes, so I want to say that I misread the situation and sorry for being rude.
Mistake? Girl, you're not wrong. Just because it started off with "idk why we make women feel yadda yadda" and a man comments about his forehead too
...that's called a conversation. Dude was js he relates. I'm a girl too and idk why women get up in arms if men talk about being bullied for how they look. Do women get pushed by society more? Yes but at least we're allowed to be emotional or show our feelings about something. Men have to bottle that shit up most of the time and for people to just dismiss how a man may or may not feel about himself in correlation to comments about foreheads....just wrong, man
Right?! And men have the forehead issue more frequently with balding/thinning/receding hairlines. I didn’t understand this at all.
ETA: it’s obvious she knew she was wrong because she deleted all her comments.
Ha... I have a tendency to completely recluse when someone tells me I did something wrong. The first commenter I saw after my reply didn't agree with me, so I immediately assumed I must be wrong and should feel bad about it lol... I think they brought up a good point, and I did gloss over the fact that the original comment was about women. I stand by thinking the guy was fine adding to the convo, but understand the other persons perspective. I don't comment very often online for someone who has been using the internet for as long as I have, so I struggle having thick skin haha
The post wasn’t centered on her gender, though. Your comment was perfectly acceptable and it’s totally okay for you to use your voice to stand up for yourself and others. Assertiveness is good! 😊
WTF did I just read? Are you serious?! How is being insecure about the size of one’s forehead just a women’s issue? If anything men experience this issue a lot because of thinning hair/receding hairlines. But they’re quiet about it because they’re told it’s just something that “happens” and they should just “deal with it.” How are their feelings any less valid? Is this sub just for women?
If you do not have evidence that this is just a women’s issue, then it is a bias. Take your misandry elsewhere.
Women are a lot more targeted by beauty standards. Idk why you felt the need to not all men this thread.
Edit- it was 2am when I wrote this comment. I was exhausted and used the wrong phrase. I should’ve said “idk why you felt the need to talk about how it’s not just women in a thread talking about our issues. Like obviously anyone can be bullied for their appearance but that is not the convo being had currently.”
I didn’t not all men anything cuz no one was trashing men… lol
I’m sorry you’re angry at the idea of acknowledging mens issues with womens issues. It’s almost like we’re all people and it sucks for all of us
I used the wrong phrase because I was tired. I meant to say I don’t get why men always need to put focus on themselves when we’re talking about women. Anyone with a pulse is aware women are way more nitpicked and attacked for our looks than men are.
I don’t understand why he’s not allowed to empathize. Men are also force fed beauty standards that are impossible to meet. Why are you turning it into a competition? Who gives a shit who gets it more in this case? It doesn’t make their feelings less valid. Let the guy vent and stop being so damn salty.
The guy can vent somewhere else. Idk why men feel the need to discuss these issues with us and never amongst each other. He saw this thread and basically went “well actually, it’s not just women…” like GTFO with that shit. We’re allowed to talk about experiences that we face disproportionately without including men’s issues.
Hey, guess what? This sub isn’t just for women! This is complete misandry and I cannot believe what I am reading.
If he were to insert himself into a discussion about period pain by saying something like, “OMG I know, I’m afraid because I haven’t even had my period in 35 years,” or something along those lines, then it would be understandable.
Not all men wasn’t the right phrase to use, I was too tired too proofread. I meant you shouldn’t be inserting mens issues into the convo about issues that impact women.
When have was the last time you seen a ugly woman ask questions like this? Most of them look good and just want validation, I’m not the only one who thinks this. If I wasn’t around a bunch of idiots then they’d understand what I meant.
It’s the “red pill” arguments verbatim. Unoriginal, shortsighted, reactionary…at best. Incapable of critical thinking. It’s group think and that’s what you’re doing. Who is throwing insults when you just said no one’s going to understand your superior intellect, when you’re wasting your precious time talking to “a bunch of idiots”. I can acknowledge men have issues, very specific ones, & shared issues, without demoralizing women, and painting them into soul sucking villains. That kind of thinking is so limited. I hope you grow out of it soon. You do have a point: once you lack logic you start to throw out insults at people. That’s precisely what you did.
I have a big forehead that I used to be self conscious about. One day I had it pulled back like that and had someone give me a very sincere sounding compliment that I looked so great because it showed off my beautiful forehead. It got me thinking and I started looking up women with large foreheads and numerous celebrities that I always thought beautiful had them.
You look beautiful with your hair like that.
i have forehead like op and i wear my hair down, covering as much of my face as i can. every time i wear it in pony tail (which is like...couple times per year) i get so many compliments - but i still wont do it more and it feels uncomfortable.
Thank you. I have always hated my big forehead, but I just googled that and wow I already am liking it a bit more. Crazy how a stranger on the internet can say something so small but it can make such a big impact on how I view myself
being 100% honest here, i didn’t not even notice your forehead before i read your question. i saw the picture and thought “aw she’s pretty, blonde looks good on her” so don’t even worry about it. no one notices your insecurities but yourself! if your confident enough, even you’ll forget about them eventually:)
Do you have a high forehead? Yes. Is it proportional with your face and features? Absolutely.
You have such a gorgeous face that I think you can be bald and look good, let alone with your hair pulled back.
People have foreheads. Many have high foreheads. *Many* famous people who are drool worthy (hello, Angelina Jolie)!
Rock it and feel comfortable because you have *zero* reason to be self conscious.
Thanks! It's just so hard to not feel like a spotlight is shining on my forehead when I dont have my hair to hide it. Hopefully no one else pays attention to it but I'm so self conscious
So basically although you think you have a big forehead, you have a beautiful brow and perfect eyes that absolutely take the attention away from your forehead.
Like unless you tell someone you have a big forehead, it’s not noticeable!
I personally feel like I have a Neanderthal brow which makes my brow pushed out a little too much and my eyes look small. When I don’t have bangs, I can only focus on my Neanderthalness and its so awful! LOL.
But your brow and eyes are perfect. You look fantastic with however you choose to have your hair like :)
As a broad-headed person, thank you ☺️ This means so much to hear. I have lived my entire life so aware and mindful of my forehead so this is reassuring to me ❤️
Your pupils are supposed to be exactly halfway between the top of your head and the point/bottom of your chin. (In order for facial symmetry to register as “perfect/beautiful” in the eye of an average human) ... yours are. You do not have a large forehead. Your facial symmetry is on point and you are stunningly beautiful. I do not know what has happened or what you’ve been told to make you question your appearance, but if someone/anyone has made you feel this way, they’re probably just trying to take you down due to jealousy. You’re absolutely beautiful even by literal beauty standards. Rock on woman!!! 🖤🖤🖤
If your forehead bothers you that much, you could always gets [bangs à la Zooey Dechanel](https://img.buzzfeed.com/buzzfeed-static/static/2022-04/11/18/campaign_images/6672fe47b9a7/zooey-deschanel-on-people-not-recognizing-her-wit-2-12875-1649700306-22_dblbig.jpg?resize=1200:*)
Did someone mention sloths?
Here's a random fact!
Sloths have a four-chambered stomach, just like cows! This is why they are able to digest tough plant fibers that other animals cannot.
Thank you all for the super sweet compliments and advice! My friend's brother told me "You have a big forehead" when I was around 10-11 years old and it stuck with me still to this day. You all have helped me be more confident to wear my hair pulled back after 10+ years again <3
He also has a big forehead. My friend says he projects insecurity onto other people but it still sucked to hear it in the moment. I was around 10 years old so he had to have been around 15 so its not like he was a little kid
Isn’t it weird how that one comment can become “sticky” and not leave your mind but 100 people can say something nice and your brain is just like “nah, we don’t need to remember that. It’s not important”.
Bottom line: you’re gorgeous and I didn’t even notice your forehead until I read your title. Rock that hairstyle with confidence! You’re beautiful!
Girl you’re insanely gorgeous, your forehead matches your features perfectly! I think the hairstyle looks cute on you.
It makes me sad that society has such harsh beauty standards for women that random things like their forehead can make them self conscious. 😔 Over time, I’ve learned that whether I look like other people or not, I’m beautiful even if I don’t meet the beauty standard. For example, I have freckles & I used to be self conscious about that when I was younger because I didn’t look like the majority. I know people that got made fun of for having freckles years ago, but now people put on fake freckles with makeup! It seems some beauty standards are only trends.
Thinking about how every country has their own beauty standards has helped me become more confident because it’s helped me realize that we really are all beautiful, I guarantee you that in some places your forehead is a sign of beauty.
Imagine if everyone looked the same… wouldn’t that be boring? Being called “beautiful” wouldn’t really feel like a compliment because we would just look like everyone else, lacking unique features.
Take care lovely, you’re beautiful. ❤️
Yours is not because your face is so balanced. I think the size of your forehead actually brings harmony to your face. It also helps that your skin is just so incredibly beautiful.
Your forehead is totally fine, just clean it up(the hairstyle). Use a comb and smooth out the bumps, straighten the part..You're cute just do the finishing touches.
This looks perfectly fine to me! IF it’s still bothering you, play with proportions. If you tease the back a bit higher I think it will help. I looked up Rihanna since she was mentioned in the top comment and noticed she does that a lot.
Nope, didn't even notice until I read your post.
It sucks how people are taught to be so self conscious...My Mother-in-law was brutal when my wife was a kid, especially through her teens. we've been together since we were 17&18 so I witnessed plenty of it first hand. She jokes about having a "5 head" to this day, but I know it's just her way of dealing with the bs from her mom.
Were both in our mid 30's now, and to this day I will never forget the time her mom asked me to teach her how to use Photoshop. For context, we were in our early 20's, and my wife was very active and "distract you when she walks in the room" kind of gorgeous...still is 3 kids later as far as I'm concerned. We get to her moms and I open up the photo I was most recently working on which was a picture of my now wife sitting, wearing a baggy cut off band T (it was the early 2010's lol). Her mom looks at the picture, pauses for like 10 solid seconds before pointing at a tiny little side roll and in the most disgusted tone I had ever heard says "You couldn't have removed....that...?". I was left speechless considering that was the very first thing she said...I also had a bit of an attitude back then so it took a lot of self-control to not point out that she was over 300lbs while her daughter was around 130...
I think a *low* hairline makes people look like Neanderthals. A high forehead is attractive to me and tons of others. Years ago it signified someone smart and of a high social class— it’s where the term “highbrow” came from.
I think you'd look absolutely stunning with a wolf cut, and "bangin'" with some bangs iykwim😉, but still I'd rather you ask your local hairstylist, Goodluck👍🏻
I completely disagree, that your forehead is “too big to wear your hair back”. Personally I think you look fine. Your facial structure is totally proportionate and you have a beautiful face. Don’t get discouraged about your looks!
No! As someone who has been insecure about my forehead for a long time, I promise you just gotta wear the hairstyle! You’re thinking about it waaay more than others are. You’re super pretty no matter what your hair looks like :)
It’s not your forehead, the roots are coming in strong, and your hair isn’t parted evenly, and there are some fly aways. We can’t change our forehead but if you want to up your hair game I would focus on the other stuff that you can change! Maybe a side part?
I had a side part for years and like a middle part on me much more. My hair is pretty oily right now and admittedly I didn't put much effort into the finishing touches for this picture :p
Nope. You look gorgeous, don't worry about it. Our faces are the not just the sum of its parts, the asymmetries and non cookie clutter features are what give us beauty that sets us apart.
TBH, I didn't noticed it because your stunning eyes and aestheticbfeatures are the first things that grabbed my attention.
Your face is pretty symetrical, you look gorgeous, if you allow the compliment. You just have to look yourself on the mirror and realize it.
Your forehead is large babe and that’s just apart of your beauty. “Too big”? No, it’s not too big to do anything. I’m not even being nice, literally saw your forehead and said “she’s cute, she got a big ass forehead. Aww I like her eyeshadow “. If that sounds mean I’m so sorry but that was my actual thought process. Absolutely super cute with your hair like that
Your hair looks perfect pulled back like that! Your face is beautiful and your makeup looks fantastic! If anyone has something negative to say about your look it’s more than likely because their own insecurities. I never understood why people are mean just to be mean. I hope that you feel better after so many people reminding you that you are gorgeous!
There is nothing wrong with having a big forehead, but idk who told you that you have one. Your forehead is in proportion with the rest of your face and you’re also very pretty.
As someone who's super self-conscious about their forehead i totally get it. It used to be my eyebrows were awful from over plucking and I had them microbladed so they are great now but I feel like a balding old man otherwise 😂😂😂 as a hairdresser it sucks but I have the choice to own it and grow my bangs out. You're not alone and have a beautiful forehead and I don't think it looks bad with your hair like that.
I'm late to this thread, but I've learned through drawing that one's forehead (the distance from hairline to eyes) should be the same height as the distance from one's eyes to one's mouth.
So if the hairline is higher than that distance, it's a "fivehead". And if it's lower than that distance, you get that Neanderthal look.
You have an oval-shaped face — like me. Your forehead is tall... but also your nose is tall. Your face is proportional, and you look great.
EDIT: [Here.](https://imgur.com/a/AuGoOfh) The red lines are identical in length.
Yes. You plucked your eyebrows into oblivion. If the brows were there maybe the forehead wouldn’t seem so big. But you plucked the shit out of them and there is nothing there but acres of blank skin.
Plus you got no wrinkles. Mine is SUPER lined and yours is smooth and young looking so you CAN rock it if you own it.
Why ask if you don’t want advice? You look really pretty but your eyebrows look like early 2000’s and they are bad. Like REALLY bad, bad. None of the eyebrow thing is working. Tell me it’s “in” ok, great but on your face they do NOT work. The eyebrows make the forehead bad. They look horrible. Like negative out of ten. You could have good but you choose the bad “in” thing. What if chopping off your pinkie finger is the new thing? You gonna do that too? Smarten up, you are wrecking your face!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Damn her brows are not that bad dude she’s naturally pale haired so thick full brows might not be possible or even better looking. I think they frame her eyes beautifully.
Thank you! I use a sulfur/salicylic acid bar followed with cosrx sunscreen in the morning and vanicream + DHC cleansing oil at night followed up with soonjung barrier repair moisturizer.
No not at all! It makes me so sad how insecure so many of us are about all kinds of things. If I had seen your picture without context I never would have figured this to be the reason for your post. You are beautiful and should wear your hair any way you wish!
I think you have a very pretty and proportionate face. What most women including myself, don’t seem to get it into their brains, is that proportions can vary drastically and still be gorgeous! That’s why I hate seeing these fashion or beauty articles stating what the perfect measurements are etc etc.
Honestly I thought you were going to be posting pics of your hair and couldn’t figure out what I was supposed to be looking at, so I read your title thingy.
I think your facial structure is very flattering and your forehead definitely adds to that in a positive way. Like your face is really balanced and your nose is super cute. Do your thing!
Like everyone else has said forehead is not a concern. But personally this style is a bit meh for me, I think you should almost emphasise your forehead even more with a super unicorn horn top of the head pony tail or messy bun. Get that height right on top of your head.
I think it looks great! I have a similar forehead (lol) and love a hairstyle which is similar to this. Straight part or side part, you pull each side of your hair into like a half up hairstyle but each side has it's own half up mini ponytail (a lot of people wear it to festivals, but you can dress it up for work or dress it down for errands). Lmk if you want me to find a picture of it
Girl, you can do whatever you want with your hair. If someone thinks your forehead is too big, that’s their problem. Wear your hair the way you like it!
U don’t have a big forehead, but your hair line is slightly higher than normal, you look great already, but you’ll look better if you style your hair in front to cover up some
I would do a side part, it will give your hair more volume and oomph. It’s too fine and flat for this kind of hairstyle to look nice. But to answer your question no, your forehead isn’t too big. The problem is your hair is too fine.
Normal ass forehead idk why we’ve trained women to hate themselves
People can be Jerks... I had a boss (48M) in high-school that would comment on my large forehead and would sometimes even rub it for good luck! Soooo funny right? Never even thought it was big before that but sure keep a side part now.
for a while my boss pointed out that i had big chubby cheeks… why do people comment on stuff like that? especially some bosses.
Some bosses are truly just horrible humans. One told me once (in front of co-workers) to get a manicure and address my ‘snaggly-ass’ nails. As a single mom with five kiddos at the time and less than generous salary, weekly manicures were NOT an option.
I had a boss, who I thought was giving me a well deserved promotion, call me in a meeting in his office to tell me that I needed to lose weight. It was horrifying and went on and on for like 30 mins. Yeah.
What a jerk holy sht. I’m thinking this was back in the day bc now someone would totally be sued for that.
Personal comment at work should be illegal. Everything else is (in the UK anyway), so why not that?
That’s when you tell ‘em to put up or shut up and give you a salary capable of handling the occasional mani 👀
Oh man I had a boss that said sum about my hair not being done and I said you don’t pay me enough for that ish! I do not work there anymore, but that lady was something else
Should've told him to pay you more so you could
Normal forehead to me!! My boss also comments on my appearance telling me to eat a cheeseburger when she KNOWS I’m chronically Ill. People can be mean. Don’t listen to them 🤍

Right on right on right on.
Lol fr
Thank you. I’m living vicariously through this forehead share.
Pretty sure we’ve trained everyone to hate themselves. I’m a guy and I’ve had my forehead made fun of since I was like 10

I’m thinking now that we probably should not have nick named our son fivehead…
get him some karma /r/fivehead
No way 😂. Thank you lol!
Women are a lot more targeted by beauty standards. Idk why you felt the need to not all men this thread. Edit- it was 2am when I wrote this comment. I was exhausted and used the wrong phrase.

Yeah, she really pulled that outta left field… brace yourself for the comeback with zero logic because people hate to be wrong… *holds breath*
I used the wrong phrase because I was tired. I meant to say I don’t get why men always need to put focus on themselves when we’re talking about women. Anyone with a pulse is aware women are way more nitpicked and attacked for our looks than men are.

Not all men wasn’t the right phrase to use, I was too tired too proofread. I meant you shouldn’t be inserting mens issues into the convo about issues that impact women.
Seriously? 🤦🏻♀️
Nah, it’s definitely a fivehead…
Nobody trained them to think like this. Most of them just want compliments.
In what world do you think we live in?
When have was the last time you seen a ugly woman ask questions like this? Most of them look good and just want validation, I’m not the only one who thinks this. If I wasn’t around a bunch of idiots then they’d understand what I meant.
Stfu
Look at you throwing insults because you don’t have a valid argument.
Neither do you so stfu
But look who’s the one using insults 🫵
It’s the “red pill” arguments verbatim. Unoriginal, shortsighted, reactionary…at best. Incapable of critical thinking. It’s group think and that’s what you’re doing. Who is throwing insults when you just said no one’s going to understand your superior intellect, when you’re wasting your precious time talking to “a bunch of idiots”. I can acknowledge men have issues, very specific ones, & shared issues, without demoralizing women, and painting them into soul sucking villains. That kind of thinking is so limited. I hope you grow out of it soon. You do have a point: once you lack logic you start to throw out insults at people. That’s precisely what you did.
I threw out an actual argument where you incels didn’t have any so you threw whatever insults you can so you can look better.
nobody wants you to be commenting on this thread, everyone wants validation. go away.
I have a big forehead that I used to be self conscious about. One day I had it pulled back like that and had someone give me a very sincere sounding compliment that I looked so great because it showed off my beautiful forehead. It got me thinking and I started looking up women with large foreheads and numerous celebrities that I always thought beautiful had them. You look beautiful with your hair like that.
SAME I've never found a large forehead unattractive at all
I find them more beautiful than small ones!
i have forehead like op and i wear my hair down, covering as much of my face as i can. every time i wear it in pony tail (which is like...couple times per year) i get so many compliments - but i still wont do it more and it feels uncomfortable.
indeed, a lot of beautiful famous women have large foreheads (e.g. Rihanna, Tyra Banks, Charlize Theron etc.)
Thank you. I have always hated my big forehead, but I just googled that and wow I already am liking it a bit more. Crazy how a stranger on the internet can say something so small but it can make such a big impact on how I view myself
women hate themselves? Where?
Everywhere 😞
My husband makes sure to remind me that Rihanna is still beautiful with a big forehead when I put myself down about it🥲
being 100% honest here, i didn’t not even notice your forehead before i read your question. i saw the picture and thought “aw she’s pretty, blonde looks good on her” so don’t even worry about it. no one notices your insecurities but yourself! if your confident enough, even you’ll forget about them eventually:)
This !! You're beautiful!! The key to rocking any look you want is confidence🫶🏻🫶🏻
Im here I didn’t notice until I read, you’re really cute!
I’ve found that to be absolutely true, to my astonishment. Wish I had learned it sooner.
Do you have a high forehead? Yes. Is it proportional with your face and features? Absolutely. You have such a gorgeous face that I think you can be bald and look good, let alone with your hair pulled back. People have foreheads. Many have high foreheads. *Many* famous people who are drool worthy (hello, Angelina Jolie)! Rock it and feel comfortable because you have *zero* reason to be self conscious.
Honestly, I agree with the bald thing now that I think about it, lol. She could pull anything off
No you’re gorgeous and its very flattering when people with broader foreheads wear their hair pushed back!!
Thanks! It's just so hard to not feel like a spotlight is shining on my forehead when I dont have my hair to hide it. Hopefully no one else pays attention to it but I'm so self conscious
So basically although you think you have a big forehead, you have a beautiful brow and perfect eyes that absolutely take the attention away from your forehead. Like unless you tell someone you have a big forehead, it’s not noticeable! I personally feel like I have a Neanderthal brow which makes my brow pushed out a little too much and my eyes look small. When I don’t have bangs, I can only focus on my Neanderthalness and its so awful! LOL. But your brow and eyes are perfect. You look fantastic with however you choose to have your hair like :)
It’s all about confidence. If you think you can pull it off, you will
As a broad-headed person, thank you ☺️ This means so much to hear. I have lived my entire life so aware and mindful of my forehead so this is reassuring to me ❤️
Not at all! Besides big foreheads are super gorgeous just look at Rihanna and tons of models in the fashion industry.
yeah this is what i tell myself when I'm feeling bad about my forehead haha. Appreciate the advice though!
Your pupils are supposed to be exactly halfway between the top of your head and the point/bottom of your chin. (In order for facial symmetry to register as “perfect/beautiful” in the eye of an average human) ... yours are. You do not have a large forehead. Your facial symmetry is on point and you are stunningly beautiful. I do not know what has happened or what you’ve been told to make you question your appearance, but if someone/anyone has made you feel this way, they’re probably just trying to take you down due to jealousy. You’re absolutely beautiful even by literal beauty standards. Rock on woman!!! 🖤🖤🖤
If your forehead bothers you that much, you could always gets [bangs à la Zooey Dechanel](https://img.buzzfeed.com/buzzfeed-static/static/2022-04/11/18/campaign_images/6672fe47b9a7/zooey-deschanel-on-people-not-recognizing-her-wit-2-12875-1649700306-22_dblbig.jpg?resize=1200:*)
I pay good money for my forehead to be as smooth as yours. Keep up the skincare, you look great.

Same! Big forehead gang gang

Did someone mention sloths? Here's a random fact! Sloths have a four-chambered stomach, just like cows! This is why they are able to digest tough plant fibers that other animals cannot.

Thank you all for the super sweet compliments and advice! My friend's brother told me "You have a big forehead" when I was around 10-11 years old and it stuck with me still to this day. You all have helped me be more confident to wear my hair pulled back after 10+ years again <3
Awe kids can be so brutal. I was teased endlessly about having Chinese eyes because my eyes are almond shaped. It gave me a complex for years!
It's crazy how easy it is to internalize insults as a kid! It hurt me so much in the moment and I'll never forget it
Kids are just weird. They see things that look different from themselves and point that out without a reason
He also has a big forehead. My friend says he projects insecurity onto other people but it still sucked to hear it in the moment. I was around 10 years old so he had to have been around 15 so its not like he was a little kid
Isn’t it weird how that one comment can become “sticky” and not leave your mind but 100 people can say something nice and your brain is just like “nah, we don’t need to remember that. It’s not important”. Bottom line: you’re gorgeous and I didn’t even notice your forehead until I read your title. Rock that hairstyle with confidence! You’re beautiful!
I agree with the majority of people here. You look great just like that!
Never noticed until I read the caption
Omg girl… Don’t be so hard on yourself! I feel so sad that you even had to ask because I looked at this pic and said “what?”. You look beautiful 🙂
Girl you’re insanely gorgeous, your forehead matches your features perfectly! I think the hairstyle looks cute on you. It makes me sad that society has such harsh beauty standards for women that random things like their forehead can make them self conscious. 😔 Over time, I’ve learned that whether I look like other people or not, I’m beautiful even if I don’t meet the beauty standard. For example, I have freckles & I used to be self conscious about that when I was younger because I didn’t look like the majority. I know people that got made fun of for having freckles years ago, but now people put on fake freckles with makeup! It seems some beauty standards are only trends. Thinking about how every country has their own beauty standards has helped me become more confident because it’s helped me realize that we really are all beautiful, I guarantee you that in some places your forehead is a sign of beauty. Imagine if everyone looked the same… wouldn’t that be boring? Being called “beautiful” wouldn’t really feel like a compliment because we would just look like everyone else, lacking unique features. Take care lovely, you’re beautiful. ❤️
No babes you look lovely.
Yours is not because your face is so balanced. I think the size of your forehead actually brings harmony to your face. It also helps that your skin is just so incredibly beautiful.
Nope
Absolutely not! You look great :)
Big foreheads are super attractive but no one’s believes it. Such a shame nowadays
Your forehead is totally fine, just clean it up(the hairstyle). Use a comb and smooth out the bumps, straighten the part..You're cute just do the finishing touches.
No you are perfectly fine. I can make some shit up and be brutal if you real want.
This looks perfectly fine to me! IF it’s still bothering you, play with proportions. If you tease the back a bit higher I think it will help. I looked up Rihanna since she was mentioned in the top comment and noticed she does that a lot.
if you have a big forehead i’m megamind
That’s the most normal forehead I’ve ever seen in my life
Nope, didn't even notice until I read your post. It sucks how people are taught to be so self conscious...My Mother-in-law was brutal when my wife was a kid, especially through her teens. we've been together since we were 17&18 so I witnessed plenty of it first hand. She jokes about having a "5 head" to this day, but I know it's just her way of dealing with the bs from her mom. Were both in our mid 30's now, and to this day I will never forget the time her mom asked me to teach her how to use Photoshop. For context, we were in our early 20's, and my wife was very active and "distract you when she walks in the room" kind of gorgeous...still is 3 kids later as far as I'm concerned. We get to her moms and I open up the photo I was most recently working on which was a picture of my now wife sitting, wearing a baggy cut off band T (it was the early 2010's lol). Her mom looks at the picture, pauses for like 10 solid seconds before pointing at a tiny little side roll and in the most disgusted tone I had ever heard says "You couldn't have removed....that...?". I was left speechless considering that was the very first thing she said...I also had a bit of an attitude back then so it took a lot of self-control to not point out that she was over 300lbs while her daughter was around 130...
I think a *low* hairline makes people look like Neanderthals. A high forehead is attractive to me and tons of others. Years ago it signified someone smart and of a high social class— it’s where the term “highbrow” came from.
I mean you look great like this it doesn't really stand out, but I think you'd look better with a different hairstyle
Any specific hairstyles you have in mind?
I think you'd look absolutely stunning with a wolf cut, and "bangin'" with some bangs iykwim😉, but still I'd rather you ask your local hairstylist, Goodluck👍🏻
I completely disagree, that your forehead is “too big to wear your hair back”. Personally I think you look fine. Your facial structure is totally proportionate and you have a beautiful face. Don’t get discouraged about your looks!
No! As someone who has been insecure about my forehead for a long time, I promise you just gotta wear the hairstyle! You’re thinking about it waaay more than others are. You’re super pretty no matter what your hair looks like :)
Yes
It’s not your forehead, the roots are coming in strong, and your hair isn’t parted evenly, and there are some fly aways. We can’t change our forehead but if you want to up your hair game I would focus on the other stuff that you can change! Maybe a side part?
I had a side part for years and like a middle part on me much more. My hair is pretty oily right now and admittedly I didn't put much effort into the finishing touches for this picture :p
Nope. You look gorgeous, don't worry about it. Our faces are the not just the sum of its parts, the asymmetries and non cookie clutter features are what give us beauty that sets us apart.
Your forehead seems really well proportioned with your face
Absolutely not! When I look at you I don’t see a large forehead, I see a beautiful woman! I hope you can see that too.
Bruh you literally look like one of those 'golden ratio' faces, don't worry at all.
TBH, I didn't noticed it because your stunning eyes and aestheticbfeatures are the first things that grabbed my attention. Your face is pretty symetrical, you look gorgeous, if you allow the compliment. You just have to look yourself on the mirror and realize it.
Your forehead is large babe and that’s just apart of your beauty. “Too big”? No, it’s not too big to do anything. I’m not even being nice, literally saw your forehead and said “she’s cute, she got a big ass forehead. Aww I like her eyeshadow “. If that sounds mean I’m so sorry but that was my actual thought process. Absolutely super cute with your hair like that
The only thing I noticed was how Pretty you are! 🥰 You can wear your hair however you want.
Your hair looks perfect pulled back like that! Your face is beautiful and your makeup looks fantastic! If anyone has something negative to say about your look it’s more than likely because their own insecurities. I never understood why people are mean just to be mean. I hope that you feel better after so many people reminding you that you are gorgeous!
Girl, you're gorgeous. Don't even worry about it
No. You have a good balanced appearance and a very pretty, feminine face so you rock it.
There is nothing wrong with having a big forehead, but idk who told you that you have one. Your forehead is in proportion with the rest of your face and you’re also very pretty.
As someone who's super self-conscious about their forehead i totally get it. It used to be my eyebrows were awful from over plucking and I had them microbladed so they are great now but I feel like a balding old man otherwise 😂😂😂 as a hairdresser it sucks but I have the choice to own it and grow my bangs out. You're not alone and have a beautiful forehead and I don't think it looks bad with your hair like that.
I gotta big ass forehead and got bangs and I'll never ever not have them😭😭😭 you look great with this hairstyle!
I'm late to this thread, but I've learned through drawing that one's forehead (the distance from hairline to eyes) should be the same height as the distance from one's eyes to one's mouth. So if the hairline is higher than that distance, it's a "fivehead". And if it's lower than that distance, you get that Neanderthal look. You have an oval-shaped face — like me. Your forehead is tall... but also your nose is tall. Your face is proportional, and you look great. EDIT: [Here.](https://imgur.com/a/AuGoOfh) The red lines are identical in length.
Yes. You plucked your eyebrows into oblivion. If the brows were there maybe the forehead wouldn’t seem so big. But you plucked the shit out of them and there is nothing there but acres of blank skin. Plus you got no wrinkles. Mine is SUPER lined and yours is smooth and young looking so you CAN rock it if you own it.
Trust me thin eyebrows on me is the move. I look terrible with bushy brows and most of the hair grows low, on the eyelids. It's not cute.
Why ask if you don’t want advice? You look really pretty but your eyebrows look like early 2000’s and they are bad. Like REALLY bad, bad. None of the eyebrow thing is working. Tell me it’s “in” ok, great but on your face they do NOT work. The eyebrows make the forehead bad. They look horrible. Like negative out of ten. You could have good but you choose the bad “in” thing. What if chopping off your pinkie finger is the new thing? You gonna do that too? Smarten up, you are wrecking your face!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Damn her brows are not that bad dude she’s naturally pale haired so thick full brows might not be possible or even better looking. I think they frame her eyes beautifully.
Bruh you're really freaking pretty big forehead them all I'm just saying....... you really can't go wrong
Yes
I’ve seen six-heads before with their hair pulled. You’re fine.
Honestly I don’t think anyone with a brain really cares about how big someone’s forehead is. You look great!
Fuck making any decisions about your hair for any person besides you. The question is- how do YOU like your hair?
no it’s just your hairs thin
No
Amazing skin! What's your skin hair routine?
Thank you! I use a sulfur/salicylic acid bar followed with cosrx sunscreen in the morning and vanicream + DHC cleansing oil at night followed up with soonjung barrier repair moisturizer.
No
Nope. I would absolutely tell you. My sister has a huge forehead lol. I tease her about it. My daughter has inherited it 😆 You're good!
No.
No!
No not at all! It makes me so sad how insecure so many of us are about all kinds of things. If I had seen your picture without context I never would have figured this to be the reason for your post. You are beautiful and should wear your hair any way you wish!
Nope, pull your hair back! If you love it do it. Dont second guess yourself
I think you have a very pretty and proportionate face. What most women including myself, don’t seem to get it into their brains, is that proportions can vary drastically and still be gorgeous! That’s why I hate seeing these fashion or beauty articles stating what the perfect measurements are etc etc.
Honestly I thought you were going to be posting pics of your hair and couldn’t figure out what I was supposed to be looking at, so I read your title thingy. I think your facial structure is very flattering and your forehead definitely adds to that in a positive way. Like your face is really balanced and your nose is super cute. Do your thing!
No
Nope!
Nope, you look great!
Like everyone else has said forehead is not a concern. But personally this style is a bit meh for me, I think you should almost emphasise your forehead even more with a super unicorn horn top of the head pony tail or messy bun. Get that height right on top of your head.
I think it looks great! I have a similar forehead (lol) and love a hairstyle which is similar to this. Straight part or side part, you pull each side of your hair into like a half up hairstyle but each side has it's own half up mini ponytail (a lot of people wear it to festivals, but you can dress it up for work or dress it down for errands). Lmk if you want me to find a picture of it
No
honestly didnt even notice it till u mentioned it. idk looks normalish to me
No blondes rule that all there is so let all others be jealous
No, lol. Your face is actually very proportioned, and you're fabulous 💖
Your face is narrow so you can literally rock ANY hairstyle!
Girl, you can do whatever you want with your hair. If someone thinks your forehead is too big, that’s their problem. Wear your hair the way you like it!
Not at all babe it looks cute!! Keep doing it!!💕 also … who cares what anyone thinks??? Do what makes you happy!
Mo
Nope. You look cute.
Never, you’re stunning!
No
No
Nope. You are lovely and your hair is lovely.
U don’t have a big forehead, but your hair line is slightly higher than normal, you look great already, but you’ll look better if you style your hair in front to cover up some
No it’s not, you’re beautiful pls keep slaying.
It's big but not horrifyingly big. You're good
You look so cute!
Your face is well balanced
I didn’t even notice. Your nose is so cute btw <3
Not at all. Sincerely, a 5head ❤️
Omg no! You are proportional and gorgeous!
I would do a side part, it will give your hair more volume and oomph. It’s too fine and flat for this kind of hairstyle to look nice. But to answer your question no, your forehead isn’t too big. The problem is your hair is too fine.
