Bobby, I have critiqued several "hair" images over the years here at Photocamel. Unfortunately the hair in all of them was dull, lifeless, had no luster and zero shine. This image has it all as far as hair is concerned. It looks healthy and full of life. It has lots of shine and luster and appears vibrant. Nice job!

Critique. I would have turned her face more toward the camera so her nose would not be so close to the edge of her face, and I think some eye contact and a slight smile would help the image. We want the prospective hair client to look at the hair first, and allow her to decide if she thinks that style would look good on her then we want her to look at the face and see if the subject likes her hair style based on her expression.

Now if the hair style is pink and blue streaked and it is sticking out all over and looks like she just came in from a tornado, then you would want a nasty mean expression.

Nice hairdo, Bobby. Not sure if it is my monitor but, she appears to have a bit of reddened skin (rash??) on the left side of her left eye.

Thank you Benji
