↳IZA World of Labor (2023), review of US and Canadian estimates
Men rated attractive at 18 were still earning more in their mid-30s and early 50s, after controlling for IQ, personality, confidence and family background.
↳Scholz & Sicinski (2015), Review of Economics and Statistics
↳Wisconsin Longitudinal Study, 10,317 participants tracked from 1957
Identical resumes, different photos: attractive applicants got 36% more callbacks and were contacted earlier. In a separate market, attractive men hit a 19.9% callback rate against 9.2% for no photo at all.

↳Ruffle & Shtudiner (2015), Management Science
Fifteen years after graduation, attractive MBAs were 52.4% more likely to hold prestigious roles, worth $2,508 a year on average and $5,528 in the top decile. The effect was largest in client-facing work and smallest in engineering.

The metrics
No vibes, no "aura score." This is the measurement layer under looksmaxxing: every metric has a definition, a male reference range, and a confidence interval. Tap any line on your face to see where you land.
The angle of your eyes. The metric everyone argues about; we just measure it.

30+ measurements in the full report. Every one tappable, every one explained.
Face shape → plan
Face length and width at forehead, cheekbones, and jaw classify your shape. But shape is only the first input. Forehead share, hairline pattern, jaw to cheekbone ratio, and beard coverage all bend the plan, so it comes from the intersection, and the intersection is almost never generic.
Cuts matched to your geometry, with the reasoning attached, not generic "trendy haircuts for men."
Adjustable jaw surgery that costs nothing, all driven by your jaw-to-cheekbone number.
One combination, worked out
Round + Tall forehead + Temple recession + Narrow jaw + Patchy beard
Generic advice is written for a shape. Yours is written for a coordinate.
