12.1.7.1 THE CONVEX PROFILE
***************************
So-called because it forms an outward semicircle, or convex curve, consisting of frontward sloping forehead, pointed nose, strong upper lip and receding chin.
Such a profile signifies a quick mind, interested in quick results and therefore one
that concentrates on practical things. This leads to enthusiasm that often borders on impatience. Glib salesmen are found in this category along with fast-talking comedians. Sharp of wit, eager for action, these people naturally do not go for sustained effort, but prefer to accomplish one thing and get on with the next. They are intense; but they are not good listeners – one reason being that they are such great talkers.
Analyzed separately, these features run as follows:
CONVEX FOREHEAD
***************
Slanted sharply forward, with strongest development above the eyebrow. Quick observation, with power of immediate retention. Nothing escapes the notice of such persons. They are often avid readers.
CONVEX EYE
***********
Extended somewhat past the cheek; often noticeable because of its bulge. The sign of the smooth talker, sometimes repetitious, but prompt at repartee. Can out-talk anyone, with ad-lib answers for all arguments.
CONVEX NOSE
************
Long, sometimes high-bridged or pointed; sometimes both. Shows vigor and the demand for quick results. Little waste of time in argument; these people go after what they want and forget all objections. This is the prying nose that gets in everyone else’s business.
