I read anything over 2-3 inches or over 4 fingers top of eye brow to hairline
Is this correct ?
I have about 2 inches n 3 fingers
But my forhead looks huge in pics .. something off here

its all about proportions you can have a 5 finger forehead and a big skull with high fwhr and it all balances out and if you have a narrow jaw and short chin your forehead will look big in proportion even if it may be small

It's over for my 4 finger, 83% of the bi-zygomatic width, 15° slanted forehead

might be a bad hairline contour, if your forehead is very broad it can give the illusion of balding or that its bigger than it is, the sides of my hair dont start as close as other peoples and it makes my forehead look really big in pictures however in person it looks less grey alien
 
Mine is 3 fingers ish, I'd say that is short?

it's just ratios, if you have a medium sized forehead but a short face your forehead still looks giantic even if it's not actually that big in raw measurements.

I have a relatively big forehead for example, but also a long skull so it doesn't look particularly off.

slope also plays a role, the more vertical your growth the bigger it looks.

even the positioning of your eyebrows contributes to whether it's going to look big or not.

depends on facial thirds. especially top facial third in relation to bottom third in my experience. if your top facial third mogs your bottom third then it's over. hairline/temple width is extremely important too.

paul walker had a tall forehead but it's about the same size as his bottom third, so it looks balanced:

on the other hand, top facial third larger than bottom third:

What if your low third is way larger then the top?
