I’ve met very few women who sport dimpled chins, commonly referred to by young ‘uns as a “bum chin”. I had read the dimpled chin is genetic, as are dimples generally. It is also used, even to this day, as an indicator or marker of certain personality traits. I find the art of reading faces, physiongnomy and linking them to personality or character traits fascinating. Quite similar to what the psychologists used to do in the hey-day; identify potential and active criminals from facial features and head bumps. Traits and temperaments of ordinary people where judged according to where the bumps on their head were located and their shape – phrenology!
I digress. Back to dimples. I find dimples cute
and over the years I’ve grown to like my dimpled chin and cheeks too.
What do you think about dimples? Dont they give the individual a “childish” look? Mischevious perhaps?

Awwww… you have a dimpled chin? I can’t remember seeing a woman with one. Interesting!
I had to go look in the mirror to check if i have cheek dimples! I think i do… though they’re not very prominent. I remember my cousin once “aww”-ing at me when i was a lot younger, saying i had cute dimples. It seems they have diminished, along with my overall cuteness.
Ive got a dimpled chin…um…and I hate it lol.
Anyway Sumera…just in case you do not have the password to protected posts on my blog, iMuslim has it for you. I still value your comments on my posts whether protected or unprotected
.
same i have one and hate it so much-.-
iMuslim: When I was younger – and chubbier :p – my dimpled cheeks were so obvious, now they’ve disappeared. Unless I grin like a maniac! Aww..im sure they’re still there
Mushir: Aww, why do you hate your bum chin? :p I have your password – dont fret
I don’t have a dimpled chin, although I *do* have a somewhat cleft chin! It doesn’t look so great…
It’s weird – I have leopsided dimples! I have one in my right cheek when I smile, and another one on the left side of my mouth. How bizarre is that?!
I don’t like dimples so much as chubby cheeks… my one and only favourite baby (well, he’s not a baby anymore… he’s four years old now… but he’s still *my* baby!) has the most adorable, chubbiest cheeks ever, masha’Allah!
*Sniffles* I miss him now… (‘cuz he lives in my old city and I wasn’t allowed to pack him in my suitcase when we moved)
Oh I have that chin too…hate it!
Anonymouse: Lopsided dimples? I’ve seen them on a few people, so its not as weird as you think
Ruby: Aww, why do you hate it? Must be a pain in the rear for men with dimply chins when having to shave.
heyzzz ii gOt a dimple On myy left cheek thats really ObviOuss but On mi right One ii dOnt quite see thr dimples as been toO obvoius as mi left one but on piktures it shows..weird yeah?
Oh and also mi right cheek is startin to grow a dimple but its abit lower the the other one and i wish it will be the same..buh one thing that confuses me is that i thot dimples were made when u were born…but mi right one is jst growing l0l.
Dude for about a year I’ve had a dimple one the left side of my face right next my lip and like 2 months ago all of a sudden I started getting dimples on my cheeks, and I’ve never had them before.
Dimples are supposedly genetic, but I think it depends on where the dimples are!
Some people do begin to “grow” dimples as they age, and some “lose” their dimples with age.
Its all a mystery!
i have dimpled cheeks and chin…and i think i look cute coz of them
hehe i have a slightly dimpled chin, not really visible unless you look closely. and a dimpled nose
weird? and my cheek dimple is somewhere near my mouth’s smile creases…but i like them nonetheless!!
I have a dimple on my chin…i am a girl…and i really really dislike it, i have large insecuritys about it and that phrase bum chin makes me cringe.
Uncommon..so those that have it get picked on..yeah, its not to fun.
I know this is old. But I googled and saw this thing first…..You’re lame for hating it (sorry to sound mean). My gf now has the same thing, she was insecure about it, so I had to kiss it like 100 times over and over so she could forget about it. I just find it too adorable.
Salam,
My primary school friend had really cute dimple cheeks, and whenever I used to say to her “your dimples are soo cute,” she’d turn around and say “I don’t have dimples!” She was in denial. Her dimples were gorgeous.
Found this blog today and noticed this post. LOL, I have a dimpled chin and my friend think it’s really cute. I let them put their finger in it-it makes them happy
I’ve got dimples on both sides of my cheeks. Before I didn’t really care for them, but lately I’ve been noticing them more. Today I was speaking to a woman and she commented on how beautiful they were. I don’t even have to smile big before they show. I don’t even smile much beacause I don’t really like my teeth. Yet, when I do smile in public people tell me I have a beautiful smile. They’re unique and I love them. And yea, I find others with dimples cute.
I HATE MY BUM CHIN!!! .. all my life i wished i never had it! .. i would love to have surgury 2 get it removed but im a wuss .. lol … mine is like so obvious its the first thing they notice!!!!!
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh
ill b ALOT happier n confident without it!!
Haven’t you heard the expression, dimple in the cheek, many hearts you seek. Dimple in the chin, many hearts you win. That sure has been true in my case.
um…i came across this blog while searching for pics of people who have dimples in their chin, i mean like TWO dimples in their chin, like, one in the left corner of the chin, and one in the right corner of the chin. i have such dimples and i’m really selfconscious about it. i often find myself avoiding to smile because i know they show a lot. they are visible even when i speak. i used to like em until the 5th or 6th grade when a classmate told me ‘my dimples sucked, that they didn’t look good on my face’. she ruined my confidence completely. well, she was the only one who said that to me, but i haven’t been getting too many compliments on em either.[besides my family and bf]
people just act like they[the dimples] aren’t even there. i’m beginning to think that they look too ugly and people avoid to bring them into discussion because of that. i had a classmate who has two dimples in the chin and two in the cheeks, and…i think that’s awesome… anyone who shares the same problem? heeeelp!!!
I’m also female and have two dimples on my chin which I didn’t really pay much attention to until my daughter mentioned that she had inherited them. I think they’re cute and hadn’t realized that people looked at other people’s chins that closely! As far as I’m concerned…if you’ve got it, flaunt it! They’re just envious, lol.
im a woman and i have a big dimple chin. People really like the dimple! its genetic, my grandpa had it.
I have a dimpled chin! I was told recently “dimple in chin- devil within” and I’m a bit unsure as to what he meant by it. I like it, however. None of my immediate relatives have one so the unique feature was greatly embraced by my mother, therefore, giving it a special place in my heart.
HEY, umm where can i find a picture of the “dimple chin”??
please post the answer here plz, thanks!
HI!
does anyone know where i could find a picture of a dimpled chin??
please post ur answer here as a comment
thanks
I find the art of Psychology, especially the study of personality traits and characters from facial features and phrenolgy fascinating. Woo hooo its like CSI! Thanks for that piece. So out of curiosity, what does having Dimples say about your personality? I have’nt seen any Criminals or violent thugs with Dimples on Crimewatch lately lol. Maybe i havent been watching closely!
One of my twin daughters has a dimple in her chin. I’d never noticed one on a woman before so now I am taking notice. I want to make sure she doesn’t feel self-conscious about it. Help!
Hi. It shouldnt make one self-conscious, I think if people say it makes them look endearing and cute then that’s a compliment!
i think “dimple chin” is so cute and so sexy i have dimple in my chin it look nice
I have a dimple chin and I am amazed at the people who have said something about it. My boyfriend even pointed out that it gets “worse” when I get mad. I guess the way my muscles in my face tence up, makes it looks deeper. I have come to like the dimple, even though I was picked on in grade school about. It is funny how many people notice it and say something though.
so true !! it get worset too when i get mad !! but i really like it … and i feel confident with or without it …. like katy perry and adele , demi lovato , etc all had dimpled chin and they ar so pretty ..plus , it’s a sign of beauty it just shows how beautiful you are
well im a woman and i have a dimpled chin. i go it from my father.
little kids think dimpled chims are something worth teasy about, however adults oftern call it a sign of beauty! so there you go.
ps ofcourse women have dimples to it has to do with how the jaw bone fusses together befor your born, nothing to do with being male or female!
GOSH I HAVE DIMPLES GOT EM FROM MY DADS SIDE ALMOST EVERYONE HAS THEM IN HIS FAMILY! I DIDNT HAVE THEM AT FIRS I DON’T THINK. THEY JUST DEVELOPED AS I GOT OLDER(14YRS OLD 2 B EXACT WIERD HUH) BUT THEY R CLOSE 2 MY MOUTH SO WHEN I SMILE WITH MY TEETH SHOWING THEY ARENT THAT VISIBLE.BUT OVER ALL THEY R QUITE NOTICABLE. ARE ANYONE ELSES LIKE THIS?
I also have dimple chin!! I love it
i agree. i <3 bumchinsssssssss!
I have a dimpled chin and I am a women, and for the longest time I was really self conscious about it. I got picked on a lot when I was young and it made me really insecure. Till recently I am 20 now, and I have come to terms with it. I think its unique and i like it. I got mine from my dad and i think my mom has a small one but my whole family has them my older sister, younger sister, and brother.
i have a dipled chih, and I’m a girl, if you’ll look on TV you’ll actually see quite a few women with them when they smile. Mins not that nothicable unless I reall, really smile. So just be happy with the looks you have
i have a dimpled chin and im a girl, i can feel the bone under my chin is actually indented, when i was younger my sister used to tease me and call me “bum chin” and i wanted to get plastic surgery to make it “normal” but now im 24 and i love it! its what makes me an individual and i’d never change it!
Good for you, Victoria! Your sister was just mean – and probably jealous of your dimple.
Well I like dimples, I have one on my left cheek when I smile but not on my right. LOL it’s kinda wierd, I also have a slight one on my chin.
i have a dimple chin, and i have tried to love it but ahh. If i go out sometimes i like cover it up with my hand :/ i hate it so so much, i think when im older i would have surgery to remove it. I ahve seen some comments saying there ugly and although mine isnt that big i still feel so insecure. My friend commented but in a nice way but it doesnt help i hate it
You should love your dimpled chin, its a unique feature!
AssalaamuAlaikum.
I have been reading your blog some days and I like what I find here
I have dimpled cheeks too !
They make me look ‘cute’ as they say.
I feel they make me look livelier and younger than what I actually am
I fucking hate my dimpled chin. Only started noticing it 4 years ago when my ex (who I cared for very much at the time) called me names like ‘bum chin’. Ever since then it’s just made me feel like a manly ugly freak.
Nice content. When will I get the rest information?

a chin dimple looks good i think it just makes you look cute a lot of stars have them aswell they are actyully very nice some ar not even noticable but it is actully more common than people thnk and i think it makes ur face look cute,
Chins without a cleft or dimple are plain and alien like. Love yur dimples… LOL
I have a dimpled chin. Its very prominent and I REALLY HATE IT. Have always hated it my whole life. I think it makes me look ugly. I want to get plastic surgery to change it and thus make my chin (and thereby my face) look much nicer.
i find dimples very cute i have one dimple on my cheek and 2 chin dimples
i am very attracted to women with a dimple in their chin, around my area i see lots of women with them, everyone is saying that it’s not that common but around here it’s not that uncommon. i’ve dated about four women with them and for some odd reason i am VERY attracted to them. i think they make the woman more beautiful. well that’s my input. thanks
hi i am a women and i have the hugest dimple in my chin for all of my life i hated it as i would get called bum chin by some of the boys at school but now i have come to terms with it its no going anywere and it make me unique i am now 23 and have a 5 year old son who also has a dimple in his chin. but it does make you so insecure it did me for a long time i would love wearing scarfs in te winter to cover my chin.
A dimpled chin is rare for a female, and a cleft even rarer, and I find them really cute. Of course it depends on the rest of the face, but they definitely add character.
i love it 1 i have it on my chin …..i have heard the only beauties have it !
i love it 1 i have it on my chin …..i have heard the only beauties have it !
My 4 year old has a dimple in his chin and is now getting really conscious about it because some children at his school said he had a ‘bum chin’ and he doesn’t like it and doesn’t want it anymore. I don’t think he had noticed it before the children called it a bum chin. We keep telling him how gorgeous and special he is to have one and how he has inherited it from my grandad but its such a shame he’s getting conscious about it ….
i too have a dimple on my chin……i was just searching….can anyone tell me…..how many people has chin dimple …… means a proper dimple(can put your finger in it)…..out of total population of world …..
