What does seven heads mean?

Seven heads are seven times the height of the head.

Head and body are the ratio of height to head height, and several heads and bodies represent several times the height of head height. Generally, the head-to-body ratio of real human adults is roughly between six and eight, and dwarfism patients may only have four or five heads.

Shooting from the bottom up or using a wide-angle lens can visually increase the ratio of head to body.

Head-body ratio distribution

Lisi Sipos, a Greek sculptor in the 4th century BC, established that "the most beautiful proportion of the human body is that the head is one eighth of the height". Since the 20th century, the proportion of fashionable figure has changed many times, from short and fat figure of 1:6 to tall and thin figure of 1:7. This ratio of eight heads in height is still regarded as the harmonious ratio of beauty and is the standard for judging perfect body shape.

There are usually two proportions, namely, the proportion of Asian adults with seven heads and the proportion of European adults with eight heads.
