If you have flared gonions you’ll know but it’s useful to know this anyway.
Put your finger at any point along the outer side of the very bottom of your jaw. Now (with the same hand preferably) put another finger on the highest point of the jaw above the first finger (just before you reach the teeth). Slide your fingers between the two points and compare. This is the gonial flare.
The further out to the side your first finger is from the second finger, the more flared your gonions are and the wider your jaw bone is. If your first finger is actually further inward than your second finger, it’s just brutally over.
