Editor’s Note

One thing I’ve noticed after years of watching women work through this process: the biggest sticking point isn’t the quiz itself — it’s the mirror. Most of us have spent so long looking *at* our bodies rather than *reading* them that the moment we try to assess skeletal structure, we slip straight into critiquing instead of observing. The pictures help, but they only work if you can genuinely detach from the noise of what you’ve been told your “problem areas” are. Kibbe isn’t asking you to love your body (though that’s a worthy project) — he’s asking you to see its geometry. So I’m curious: when you looked at those reference images, did you find yourself drawn to the type that felt most *accurate*, or the one that felt most *aspirational*?

  1. Okay so I did this test three times because I kept second-guessing my bone structure answers — turns out I was confusing “width” with “sharpness” the whole time! I’m in Austin where everyone’s in flowy boho stuff and I always felt off in it. Now I get why. My one takeaway: I’m going to stop fighting my vertical line and actually try a longer, streamlined silhouette instead of cropped layers. Has anyone else found that their answer for jaw shape completley changed their result?
