Looksmaxxing Dictionary — Every Term Explained
Looksmaxxing has its own dictionary — tiers, slang and measurement terms inherited from the PSL forums. Below is the working vocabulary, each entry linking to a full page with definitions, references and how the term is actually used.
Rating tiers
The PSL scale's ladder, from the bottom band to the theoretical ceiling. Every tier name below has a dedicated entry — and the whole ladder is consolidated on the PSL tier list:
- LTN — Low-Tier Normie · PSL 2–3.5
- HTN — High-Tier Normie · PSL 5–6
- Chadlite · PSL 6–6.5
- MTN — Mid-Tier Normie · PSL 3.5–5 (the median zone; covered in the scale guide)
- Chad / Stacy · PSL 6.5–7.75; PSL god covers the theoretical top
Measurement terms
The geometric vocabulary the scale actually reads:
- Canthal tilt — the angle of your eye line; one of the most-discussed metrics
- Hunter eyes — deep-set, positively-tilted eye area; the community's ideal
- Facial harmony — how the features agree as a set; our Harmony dimension quantifies it
Slang
- Mogging — to outshine someone facially ("he mogged everyone in the photo"); mogging vs being mogged maps the meme to measurable dimensions
Why a dictionary (and why ours is different)
Every term page here follows the same discipline: what the term means, where it came from, what (if anything) it can actually measure, and what it can't. Community wikis define these terms in community language — we define them with the measurement attached, because a term you can't measure is just vibes. When a term has a geometric counterpart, our tool reads it; when it doesn't, we say so.
🔒 Free measuring runs entirely on your device. When you unlock the AI deep report you can choose to attach your photo — used only to generate that one readout, then discarded, never stored. Scores are geometric measurements, not a judgement of your worth.
