Heart face shape
More width through the upper face and a taper below.
How to recognize the outline
Compare the span near your temples with the line across your jaw. On a heart sketch the upper outline is wider and the sides narrow toward the chin. A pointed chin by itself cannot distinguish this shape from a diamond.
Heart or diamond?
Find the widest visible span with hair off your face. A heart sketch emphasizes the upper forehead or temples. A diamond sketch reaches its greatest width lower down at the cheekbones. Keep both in mind when those widths are close. See the diamond sketch.
What to check when trying glasses
Use the same mirror height and similar lens depth. Notice whether a thicker upper edge stands out at the temples or whether you prefer a finer rim there.
A haircut trial in the mirror
Keep the length you want. Try the same front section swept away from your face, then bring the ends toward the jawline. Compare where the extra width appears before considering a fringe or shorter layers.
