PSL Scale for Women: Female Tiers and Ideal Bands
The PSL scale for women uses the same 0 to 8 range as for men, centred near 4, but it changes the ideal measurement bands and the tier names: LTB, MTB, HTB, Stacylite, Stacy and True Eve. Here is the female chart, how the bands differ, and how to rate a female face.

The PSL scale chart for women
| PSL | Neutral name | Female name | Roughly |

| 0 – 2 | Very low range | Sub3 | bottom 3% |
| 2 – 3.5 | Below average | LTB | about 3–25% |
| 3.5 – 5 | Average | MTB | about 25–70% |

| 6 – 6.5 | Very attractive | Stacylite | about 93–97% |
| 6.5 – 7.75 | Exceptional | Stacy | about 97–99.9% |
| 7.75 – 8 | Near-ideal | True Eve | top 0.1% |
The numbers are shared with the general PSL scale. Only the community names and the measurement bands that feed the score differ.
How to rate a face on the PSL scale women’s chart
- 1
Choose Female on the tool
Select Female before you add a photo. This switches the ideal bands for jaw ratio, facial width-to-height, canthal tilt and jaw angle, and shows the female tier names.
- 2
Use a neutral, level photo
Face the lens straight on with a relaxed expression and your hair away from your jawline and forehead so the landmarks sit on skin, not hair.
- 3
Read the tier and the bands
Check your tier (LTB, MTB, HTB, Stacylite, Stacy or True Eve) and compare each measurement with its female ideal band in the table.
- 4
Compare with the same settings
Keep the setting and photo style the same when you rate again, so the two results can be compared fairly.
How the ideal bands differ for women
Most measurements use one band for everyone, such as facial thirds, eye spacing and nose width. Four are adjusted when you choose Female, because the typical and the most-rated faces differ by sex on these:
| Measurement | Female band | Male band |
|---|---|---|
| Jaw ÷ cheekbone width | 0.72 – 0.87 | 0.80 – 0.95 |
| Facial width-to-height | 1.75 – 2.05 | 1.85 – 2.25 |
| Canthal tilt | +4° to +9° | +3° to +8° |
| Jaw angle | 120° – 136° | 112° – 128° |
- A softer, narrower jaw relative to the cheekbones scores better on the female setting.
- A slightly more upward eye tilt sits in the female ideal band.
- A more open jaw angle is treated as typical, where male bands favour a sharper one.
Reading a female PSL rating
A result of 4 to 5 is an MTB, which is the middle of the population and nothing to worry about. HTB at 5 to 6 is clearly above average, Stacylite at 6 to 6.5 is very attractive, and Stacy at 6.5 and above sits in the top few percent. Because the tool measures facial structure only, hair, makeup and expression change the reading, so keep them consistent between photos. If your two results disagree by more than half a point, trust the one taken with the better light, the straighter head angle and the more neutral expression.
