HOW TO FIGURE IT OUT FOR YOURSELF
如何使用2.25英寸法則自己測量
Grab a ruler and a pencil. Place the pencil under your chin horizontally. Then place the ruler under your ear,ntersection of the pencil and ruler indicates a measurement. If it is less than 2.25 inches, then like Halle Berry and Audrey Hepburn, your face is made for short hair. If that measurement is more than that length, like Kim Kardashian and Sarah Jessica Parker, then long hair will be the most flattering choice.
首先拿出一把尺子和一隻鉛筆。水平第將鉛筆放在下巴下方，然後將尺子垂直放在耳朵下面，鉛筆和尺子之間形成的截面顯示出一個長度。如果長度小於2.25英寸，像哈莉·貝瑞和奧黛麗·赫本一樣，那麼你的臉型適合留短髮；如果長度大於2.25英寸，像金.卡戴珊和莎拉·傑西卡·帕克，那麼長髮則更加適合你。
So, the next time you're admiring someone's short crop, or longing after their long hair, just remember The 2.25' Rule... if the distance from the bottom of your ear to your chin is greater than 2.25', you might want to stick with longer haircuts. If that distance is less than 2.25', you have a face suited to short hair, even a super-short pixie cut.
所以，下次當你再羨慕別人的短髮或是長髮時，只要記住2.25英寸法則就好了。如果耳垂到下巴的長度大於2.25英尺，你適合選擇長髮，如果這個長度小於2.25英寸，那麼你適合短髮，甚至超短髮。
