Finally A Hashtag For Me Lol
Jay Raman 8 years ago
Jesus people. Do you guys understand how "posing" works? Because she was laughing in that one picture doesn't define her entire existence at that time as bubbly and happy and fun loving. And just because she is simmering and done up in the second one she isn't a psychopathic Russian spy. Just take it easy and commend the transformation the person chose for themselves for whatever reason they thought it needed to be done!

The other guy was a bit harsh but I would suggest thinning those eyebrow at the top. They just seem out of proportion. You look great though.

OMG! Just because someone isn't smiling does not mean they are sad or depressed. They could in fact be happy. Do you just assume happy people smile 24/7? Because that's not how it works.

I'm going to make a suggestion. If you get a layered haircut I think it would make an even bigger difference. I think you might like it. I don't know, maybe you're growing it out for something but I am feeling like if you have your brows shaped and get your hair layered and cut then you're going to have a third photo for us. You're looking good though Kaylee.
