Daily Dozen – Full Female Faces
Today’s set features women with their hair pulled back, up or aside to expose their entire face. Sometimes people think this makes their foreheads look really big. I don’t think that’s the case; and I don’t think the women in this set do either (I mean if they did why would they pull their hair back in the first place?). I have a LOT of photos of women with his hairstyle so I’ve limited my pool to the second 1000faces set. As much as I like the way hair can frame the face, I also like these photos really show the shape of the entire face.
