forehead touch
Gentle head greeting
A forehead touch is a gesture of affection or comfort where two people press their foreheads together, creating a moment of quiet intimacy.
Common between parents and children, romantic partners, or close friends, it conveys tenderness without words.
In some cultures, particularly Polynesian traditions, the gesture carries spiritual significance—sharing breath and life force.
Athletes sometimes use it as a bonding ritual: The teammates touched foreheads before the final play.
