    "observations": "Your face appears longer than it is wide, with softly rounded cheek contours and a jaw that gently narrows toward the chin—closest to oval. Hair partly covers the sides, and the selfie angle makes this a visual estimate rather than a measurement. These four styles offer contrasting visual inspiration, not rules or professional advice; previews will retain your original hair color.",
