Common topics

Eye color is influenced by multiple genes. Eyelid shape, eye spacing and eyebrows can resemble one parent more, but can also shift as a child grows.

Nose and lip shape may look more like mom or dad. It often becomes clearer in different growth stages (preschool years, puberty).

Jawline, cheekbones and overall facial geometry change with age. That is why a child may resemble one parent more in early years and the other later.

Do kids always take after one parent?

Not necessarily. Most traits are a mix of both parents. Some features may resemble one parent more, but this can change during growth.

Why can AI results differ across photos?

Angle, lighting, resolution and facial expression affect estimates. Clear, front-facing photos without heavy filters work best.

Is this medically accurate?

No. This is educational content. For medical/genetic questions (inherited diseases, etc.), consult a professional.
