“Only a very superficial person does not judge a new acquaintance by his first impression,” said Oscar Wilde, and there is no paradox in this. Even scientists and specialists see nothing wrong with believing traditional ideas about the connection between appearance and character: being fat means good-natured, thin and awkward is a misanthrope, and a muscular leader.
And although life, of course, is richer than any scheme, there is still something in these familiar stereotypes. For example, the famous American psychologist Eric Berne quite seriously believes that all representatives of the human race can be divided into three types: “thick”, “muscular” and “long”.
Chocolate bunny
A man of the “fat” type has a fairly voluminous chest and, as a rule, an even more noticeable belly. The face is round, the neck is short, the hips and arms are full, and the hands and feet are small. Such a person's skin usually remains young and smooth into old age, but most likely he will begin to go bald early. If you don’t make “fat” people angry, they are tolerant and friendly, they love get-togethers and parties, where they are always the center of attention. Staying in good mood, they can make fun of themselves, but cannot tolerate irony and caustic tone from loved ones. When they are out of sorts, people around them can get really into trouble, but, fortunately, “fat” people are quick-witted. They simply cannot be alone for long.
It’s too early for them to rest
The physique of representatives of the “muscular” type is rightfully a matter of their undiminished pride. They are the happy owners of a flat belly, like a stone, a wide chest and “oblique fathoms” in the shoulders. Women favor them, men envy them. “Muscular” born leaders and heroes, they are incredibly active and active, always ready for adventures and adventures. People of this type get into fights more often than others, because they always strive to retain the palm in everything. They like to give orders, subjugate their household and arbitrarily dispose of jointly acquired property. They try to dominate in any situation, even when it seems completely inappropriate to others. If suddenly they do not succeed, the “muscular” ones feel misunderstood and deeply unhappy, so it is better for them to always stay on task; rest can lead to neurosis.
Writers and homeless people
Men of the “long” type have thin bones, weak muscles, stooped shoulders and a sunken stomach. Their legs, neck and fingers are elongated, and their skin is pale and dry. In their thoughts they are impulsive and impetuous, but they avoid unnecessary movements. Hassles and all sorts of unexpected complications irritate them; they would rather go without dinner than go to the store at night. “Long” people avoid noisy companies and gatherings, preferring solitude and dreams to any fun. They can rightfully be considered creative people; under favorable conditions, “long” people often become scientists or writers. When things are unfavorable, they become drunkards and become homeless. Such men especially need delicate and tender treatment from loved ones, as they are incredibly susceptible and vulnerable.

In the area of the back of a person’s head, zones of human instincts are concentrated: everything dark that is hidden in us, all fears and complexes. The bumps on the back of the head carry information about events that we attract to ourselves unconsciously, spontaneously, about intuition, about connections with the Cosmos. Here are located the hillocks of murderers, suicides, disasters... Including: zone 1 - the hillock of suicides, destruction, self-destruction, if it is located on the “evil” side, or premonitions of danger, if on the “good” side; zone 2 - the hillock of physical desires, a clear shift of this hillock in men to the right speaks of tantric work; zone 3 - the hill of fear, zone 4 - the hill of disasters.
Determining character by the back of the head
Let's find out how to determine a person's character by the back of his head.
- At the very base of the skull, in the lower part of the back of the head, there may be a sharp lump. In undeveloped people, it indicates increased sexuality, which can sometimes even lead them to crime. The presence of such a bump in developed people indicates magical abilities, the ability to influence other people.
- If there are dents on the back of a person’s head, this is bad, since this disrupts the connection with cosmic forces, which can crush and destroy a person. A person with such a character should not practice magic.
- Strong backs of the heads in lowly developed people indicate a spontaneous manifestation of personality, a disorganized character, while in more developed people it speaks of a connection with the Cosmos, the possibility of initiation and dedication. IN Ancient Egypt many priests specifically, using special techniques, stretched the backs of their heads.
- A fleshy nape in a man means intemperance in sexual life. If such a man has a round forehead, a round belly, raised shoulders and wide feet, then he thinks more not about sex, but about material wealth, and loves his family.
How to determine character by neck
Now let's look at ways to determine character by the neck.
- A neck 16 to 18 inches in circumference is considered large and indicates great physical capabilities, a hot-tempered and capricious character, which, if it does not lead to premature death, then this person will probably outlive his contemporaries.
- If the neck is narrow at the base of the head, then life will be short.
- An excessively long neck indicates simplicity of character and curiosity.
- A short and small neck speaks of intelligence and deceitfulness.
- A muscular neck belongs to quarrelsome people.
- A neck that protrudes excessively forward warns of an evil and stupid owner.
- A thick, fleshy neck indicates a proud, hot-tempered character that can cause a lot of trouble.
- A “square” neck, merging with the back of the head, indicates that the mind is in the same style...
- A strict, straight neck corresponds to a strong, uncompromising character.
- A neck slanted to the right is a sign of caution and a tendency to hoard. When the neck is shifted to the left, this indicates a defect. Such people should not be trusted with secrets.
- A short neck may indicate heart disease.
Now you know the basic ways to determine character by the back of the head and neck.
Since the time of the beautiful Nefertiti, a swan's long neck has been an undeniable sign of beauty and a woman's pride. But what to do if the neck is short: is it possible to lengthen the neck and get closer to the desired standard?
Bust of Nifertiti - the ideal of a long and beautiful neck
To begin with, however, it is worth understanding the terminology. How to determine the length of the neck, a neck of how many cm long is considered long, how long is considered short, and when can the expression average neck length be used?
How long should the neck be
Of course, there is no need to talk about any calculations in centimeters. The length of the neck - like all other parts of the body - depends on the height and general proportions of the figure.
The German anthropologist Julius Kohlmann concluded at the beginning of the last century that if we take the entire height of a proportionally built person as 100 units, then the height of the head should be 13 parts, the height of the head with neck 20 parts. That is, the neck makes up 7% of our height.
But, of course, these indicators are the “average temperature in the hospital”: a lot depends on the person’s build type. In people of the thin-boned asthenic type, the neck is thinner and longer than in normosthenics, and in people of the broad-boned type, on the contrary, it is shorter.
Neck length is the distance from the angle of the lower jaw to the middle of the collarbone.
In addition, long necks in women are much more common than in men - and there are historically determined reasons for this, which were perfectly described by Ivan Efremov in the novel “The Razor’s Edge”:
“A slender, long neck adds a lot to a woman’s beauty, but for a man it is perceived differently – rather as something slightly painful. A man’s neck should be of some medium length and thick enough to firmly support his head in battle and to carry heavy loads. A woman, by her ancient nature, is a guardian, and her long neck gives greater flexibility and speed of head movements - again the aesthetic feeling coincides with expediency.”
There is a special test that can be used to measure the length of the neck and determine whether a man's neck is too short or long. The ideal proportion is when the hollow (where the chin meets the neck) is at a distance of four fingers from the protruding bones of the collarbones. If the distance is greater, the neck is considered long, if less, the neck is considered short.
In a word, it is impossible to calculate the ideal neck length in centimeters; you shouldn’t even try. It is much more correct to use harmonizing approach Andrei Iskornev, according to whom the beauty of a person is not in the beauty of individual parts of his body, but in how harmoniously they relate to each other.

Causes of a short neck
We'll surprise you: it often happens that men and women with short necks are not short-necked at all. After all, visually the length of the neck depends on many factors, among which its anatomical length is far from the first place.
So, why is the neck short or, more accurately, looks short?
First reason– posture.
Surely you have often noticed the swan necks of beauties from portraits of the 18th and 19th centuries. Have you forgotten to look at their straight backs, proud head carriage and sloping shoulders? Dropped shoulders will immediately visually add several centimeters of length to your neck. But raised shoulders and a stoop “eat up” the same few centimeters.
Correct posture makes your neck longer
A very illustrative example of how the position of the shoulders and head - that is, posture - changes the perception of neck length is given to us by the famous women of the Padaung people, who have been wearing brass rings around their necks since childhood. An adult woman can have up to two dozen such rings and her neck becomes incredibly long.
But the secret is that anatomically the neck itself does not change length!
The rings deform the upper thoracic region, lowering the shoulders and collarbones, and on the other hand, teach their owner to constantly live with her chin raised high. The result is the longest female neck on planet Earth.
A Padaung woman's neck is no longer than ours
Of course, no one is suggesting that you use the Padaung method. We suggest you just remember to keep your shoulders down and your chin up. The miniature device Lumo Lift will help with this. It attaches to your lapel and vibrates when you slouch.
Second reason, which makes the neck seem shorter than it is - this is excess weight.
Third reason– age-related changes.
Fourth reason– congenital anatomical features.

Expert comment:
Is it possible to do something about this problem? You can, and we will tell you about all the means we know. There is only one thing you can’t do: actually increase the length of your neck! Neither will cope with this task traditional methods, nor medicine. But it is quite possible to make the neck visually longer.
Clothes: how to make your neck longer without doing anything to it
You can visually lengthen your neck with the right clothes. To do this, it’s worth remembering one single rule: when deciding what to wear, we say “yes” to vertical lines and “no” to horizontal lines.
How does this manifest itself in practice?
Blouses and dresses in which the neckline is directed along vertical lines are suitable. The ideal option is a V-shaped neckline, which visually stretches and lengthens the neck. Her lines are well emphasized by a large turn-down collar and the lapels of an unbuttoned jacket. Feel free to use scarves, scarves, and scarves that fall freely from your shoulders. But boat necklines, bob necklines, and turtlenecks should not be worn. However, for cold days there is also such a simple option: combine a light turtleneck with a high neck with a dark unbuttoned jacket or jacket, the lapels of which will create the necessary verticality.
In addition to clothes, women have invaluable helpers, the importance of which cannot be underestimated: jewelry and hairstyle. The rule is the same: verticals yes, horizontals no. We choose chains and necklaces that fit freely on the chest, put chains and beads under the neck, necklaces and collars. Long earrings elongate the neck - they can be used perfectly. But it’s better to give gypsy hoop earrings to someone.
If we talk about hairstyles, an open neck looks longer, so we say a resounding “yes” to short haircuts, high buns and ponytails. In our case, long flowing hair also looks good (vertical hair works, which helps hide a short neck). But you should not do low ponytails, baskets and classic braids from the base of the neck - they will make the neck look shorter.
How to lengthen your neck with exercises
If it is impossible to literally stretch your neck, then your posture can be corrected.
Our goal is a straight back, dropped shoulders. In order to understand what to pay attention to, listen to the advice of professional choreographers: the top of the head should always point upward, and the shoulders and shoulder blades should point down. This creates not only beautiful lines female figure, proud posture and confident gait. This position makes the neck open and long.
Of course, correcting your posture takes a lot of time, but it is worth it - and not only for the sake of making your neck thin and long.
In addition to working on your posture, there are also special exercises for long necks that you can easily do at home.
These exercises are regular stretching: turning and tilting the head. When performed daily, your neck will actually become visually longer. Do the exercises very carefully. First, stretch your neck and warm up your muscles. Do not bring it to pain, only pleasant tension should be felt. Take your time: it is better to do all the bends and turns of the neck.
Be careful. When tilting your head to the sides, make sure that your ear falls towards your shoulder, and not your shoulder rises towards your ear - the second option will lead to the same excessive “lifting up” of the shoulders.
Doctor, I want a long neck
What about medicine? Are there quick and reliable medical ways to lengthen a short neck?
Didn't you expect it? And here it is: correctly defined eyebrows can give your face literally royal grandeur! Moderately wide, “filled”, in harmony with the color of the hair roots and the main thing is with an ideal arc angle. Go to an experienced eyebrow specialist at least once - he will choose the shape that suits you, tell you about care, and you will see how your face has been transformed!
Nose
No, we are not talking about the shape of the nose that every second plastic surgeon now sculpts. Your nose can be snub-nosed or “potato” - it is important that it looks harmonious on the face, corresponding to the golden ratio. Its “ideal” position is considered to be such that the distance from the eyes to the mouth is approximately 36 percent of the height of the face. And the distance between the pupils was about 46 percent of the width of the face. If nature has not rewarded you with an ideal profile, don’t worry, you can add nobility to your face with the help of competent makeup. By contacting a qualified makeup artist, in a couple of lessons you will learn how to highlight the best features of your face.
Cheekbones
A distinctive feature of a woman in whom “breed” is felt are clearly expressed, as if chiseled, cheekbones. To do this, you don’t need to lose up to forty kilograms, because everything depends on the shape of your face, and not on your weight. But even with a round face you can achieve cheekbones - For this you need to do Facebook building.
Neck
Describing beautiful women It’s not for nothing that they say that they have a “swan” neck. This is another external feature characteristic of a noble appearance. Many women dream of a long, flexible and graceful neck: some are lucky with one from birth, and What should those who didn’t get the swan’s neck do?
Three simple rules: opt for clothes with a v-neck, which will visually lengthen your neck, wean yourself from slouching and do not forget to regularly moisturize the skin of your neck with masks and creams - the skin in this area is thin and extremely susceptible to age-related changes.
Fingers
Short fingers with spade nails will not add nobility to your appearance. You want to feel the breed in you, but nature did not reward you with long thin fingers with a beautiful nail plate shape? You'll have to take everything into your own hands, literally. To add grace to your fingers, forget about massive rings and focus on subtle, minimalist jewelry. It is better to grow your nails a little and go to a nail salon to have them given an almond shape - it will also visually lengthen your fingers.
Wrists
An integral external sign of noble appearance is refined, feminine, almost fragile wrists. You won’t be able to draw a thin bone, but even wide wrists can be visually made thinner. To do this, just start wearing a watch with a massive dial (they will make your wrist look thinner) and forget about bracelets with a thin chain and such popular red threads as decoration.
Ankles
Slender ankles, the elegance of which is effectively emphasized by ideal pumps, are one of the most seductive parts of the female body. And is characteristic feature noble feminine appearance. What to do if your ankles don't look right? Firstly, stop getting upset; secondly, remember that shoes with a thin elegant strap are vital for you around the ankle and you should avoid too wide buckles and massive parts.
Toes
Let's not remind you that feet should be well-groomed under any circumstances - this is a truism. A woman with a thoroughbred appearance is distinguished by the shape of her feet and the shape of her toes. Distinctive features: narrow neat foot, small foot size, graceful toe shape, thumbs are higher than the rest, nails are of the correct medical shape.
