12.1.6. WIDE AND NARROW HEADS
*****************************
Width – or narrowness – of the head can be effectively gauged from the back and the resultant findings applied to the types just listed.
An average, well-balanced head – which can be judged by its proportions — usually shows a general conformity to the types as given. This width is measured on a cross line just above the ears, which corresponds approximately to the temples, when noted in a front view.
Wideness shows an energetic mind and is something of the mark of the extrovert, who is anxious to enter into many affairs.
With Type A, round, this accentuates the natural aggressiveness of the individual, particularly when the wide head is proportionately low. It shows a querulous disposition; a habitual annoyance over small things.
With Type B, square, width combined with squareness produces a challenging disposition. Antagonism towards any suggestions may result.
With Type C, pointed, wideness usually broadens the individual’s outlook, enabling him to drop the superficial attitude common to the pointed head.
