hey everyone and welcome to top think today we're going to learn about four weird tricks
to get a chiseled jawline now let's begin number one vowel shapes our first weird trick looks like
something you do every day talking talking forces your jaw your mouth your tongue and
your cheeks to work in tandem now together they create consistent and diverse sounds which we
recognize as language you may not think about your jawline every time you open your mouth but people
who talk a lot usually have sharper jawlines and stronger muscles into the lower half of their face
unfortunately most people don't speak often enough to exercise their jaws
like most people you may spend a little time each day talking to friends family or coworkers unless
you're talking for hours on end you may not see a difference in the shape of your jawline
you could solve this problem by talking for an extra few hours every day
but there's another weird trick you can use to sharpen your jawline in a fraction of the time
first let me ask you this why does talking develop and sharpen the shape of your face well
each letter in the alphabet contorts your mouth your tongue and your jaw into different positions
they're like tiny individual exercises that are targeted at specific muscle groups so if you want
to improve your jawline and define the shape of your face then turn these tiny exercises into a
full-blown workout now for this workout routine let's focus on five vowels a e i o and u to get
the most out of this routine say only the long sounds for each vowel for example you should
pronounce e like the word eat and o like the word road long vowel sounds challenge and exaggerate
your muscles in different ways some vowels widen your lips and push your tongue against your teeth
others tuck your teeth behind your lips and then round your mouth into a small circle
there are lots of letters in the alphabet but these five vowel sounds give your mouth and jaw an
unbeatable workout if possible use this simple workout routine every day just hold each vowel
sound for 5 to 10 seconds at a time then try to exaggerate the individual vowel shapes as much
as you can this may create a little tension in the lower half of your face but that's okay you don't
want to strain your muscles but a little tension means your jaw muscles are getting stronger
number two facial massage have you ever given yourself a facial massage by massaging your jaw
your chin and your mouth you can exponentially improve your jawline facial massages increase
blood circulation in your face but they also tighten your skin and sensitive areas like your
cheeks and your jawline most of the time people feel dissatisfied with the shape of their face
because their face has begun to droop as you age your muscles shift downward and your skin gets
looser in other words your face is sinking and your jawline pays the price so instead of sporting
a chiseled jawline your face may look round thick and wrinkled why does your face naturally lose its
shape well collagen is a structural protein found in your bones muscles and skin collagen makes up
about one third of the proteins in your body so it's like the glue that holds your body together
collagen keeps your bones sturdy your muscles strong and your skin looking healthy but as
you age you damage the population of collagen in your body your muscles and bones get weaker
your skin gets looser and you accrue pesky amounts of fat in sensitive parts of your face
over time your cheeks get puffier and your jawline may look more like a double chin luckily there are
several ways to combat the loss or damage of collagen proteins in your body facial massages
for example promote collagen production in and around your jawline the massage itself stimulates
blood flow which sends more oxygen to the cells in your muscles and skin this simple exercise reduces
puffiness in your cheeks and it makes your skin look healthier and most importantly it sharpens
your jawline by improving your muscle tone and tightening your skin so what does a good facial
massage look and feel like well to start gently rub your fingers in a circular motion target any
areas on your face that you want to improve like your jawline your mouth your cheeks and temples
spend 30 to 60 seconds rubbing each part of your face you'll notice after one facial massage that
your face feels livelier and more refreshed that's because facial massages also release tension in
your muscles it's a quick and easy form of stress relief which makes this simple treatment both
relaxing and therapeutic to get the most out of your facial massages incorporate this weird trick
into your daily routine find time every morning or every evening to knead the tension out of your
face as little as 10 minutes a day can make a real difference and change the shape of your jawline
number three funny faces have you ever made funny faces at yourself in the mirror
come on you can admit it for our third weird trick you'll need a mirror and all the funny faces you
can think of each time you contort your face into an odd position it engages a different group of
muscles there are many important muscles wrapped around your jawline like those moving your mouth
and the muscles connecting your jaw to your neck some of these muscles see use on a daily basis
chewing for example requires complex coordination between the muscles that close your jaw
and the muscles that open your jaw but other muscles fly under the radar these muscles don't
see much activity in your daily life but it's these important muscles that develop your cheeks
and jawline that's where funny faces come in handy each funny face forces you into an uncomfortable
unusual position so it activates muscles that you rarely ever use you may discover that your jaw
muscles are a lot weaker than you thought so get in the habit of making funny faces in the mirror
every morning smile as wide as you can and then frown as deep as your mouth will go stick out
your tongue clench your jaw push it as far out as you can and then pull it back in towards your neck
the fish face is particularly a good one the fish face forces you to pucker your lips which
tenses almost all the muscles around your mouth at the same time if it helps you be consistent
turn these funny faces into a regimented exercise similar to our five vowel shapes just pick
10 funny faces to do each morning then hold each expression for 10 to 15 seconds
if possible diversify your funny faces and that way you're challenging each and every muscle
in the lower half of your face while you can do this exercise without a mirror the mirror
is an important part of the process when you watch yourself in the mirror you can see which parts of
your face are strained and which parts are relaxed slowly but surely you'll notice more flexibility
in those muscles you'll discover a greater range of motion and your jawline will start to improve
while this exercise isn't going to sharpen your jawline overnight it can have long-term
benefits if you're consistent and thorough you can define your jawline the way you've always wanted
number four style definition our fourth and final trick isn't an exercise or a self-care routine
it doesn't challenge your muscles or tighten your skin but it can change the shape of your face in
seconds most people don't pay attention to the way their hair impacts their face the length style and
thickness of your hair has a huge impact on the shape of your jawline your jawline is the bottom
most line of your face your hairline is the top together these two lines create the total shape
of your face so by improving one you can actually change the appearance of the other so no matter
what your face looks like changing your hair style can make your jaw look sharper and more refined
if you play to your strengths you can transform the shape of your face with one haircut
but which hairstyles improve your jawline and which ones don't okay let's start with hairstyles
to avoid wide boxy hairstyles they just make your face look large and round if you wear your hair
long on the sides it's going to broaden your face so the whiter your face looks the weaker
your jawline gets instead of wide boxy cuts try wearing your hair long on top and short on the
sides this hairstyle narrows and lengthens your face it slims down your cheeks and it makes your
jawline appear much sharper but that's not the only way hair can change the shape of your face
facial hair significantly impacts the jawline a short stubble adds natural contour to your face
that contour defines your jawbone separates your face from your neck and emphasizes your chin all
together stubble can sharpen even the roundest jawlines thanks to a little bit of shading a
longer beard can also improve your jawline but there are a few things to watch out for many men
wear their beards thick and round much like that boxy haircut round beards make your face look
more circular than it actually is in other words a round beard doesn't do your jawline any favors
so if you're going to grow a longer beard just keep it sharp and follow the angle of your jaw
that way your beard plays to your strengths instead of emphasizing your weaknesses while
exercises and routines can refine your jawline the right style choices can make all the difference
so if you combine these four weird tricks together you can improve your jawline in no time hey thank
