Technical Tip: Designing the Hairline Using the Prayer Mark

Abstract

Designing a hairline is a difficult procedure that requires expertise. Although there are no specific rules about hairline placement, different factors play an important role. Forehead marks (prayer marks/bumps), which are caused by repeated contact of the forehead with the floor/prayer mat, are typically seen in Muslims. The hairline should always be marked above these marks, as daily practice will result in lack of hair growth in these areas.
