What is a Long Face in face reading?
A long face is a face shape whose length is clearly greater than its width, with the forehead, cheekbones and jawline close in width. In face reading it is linked with depth of thought, patience and seriousness. In the five element classification long, upright features are most often assigned to the wood type, read as growth, holding to principles and openness to learning. The reader compares height with width and notes whether the length comes from the forehead, the nose or the lower face. A long face is read as a leaning toward research, planning and following one's own path. A common misconception, carried over from the Turkish idiom uzun surat for a sulky look, is to equate this shape with gloominess; the idiom describes a mood, while the tradition reads bone structure and proportion.
