This isn't a plastic surgery question, but I don't feel comfortable asking anyone personally. I kept getting looks while I was driving the other day, more than normal, but it's been a theme for most of my life, I've always tried to hide behind me hair, I know I look a certain way but the other day when I swept my hair to the side people didn't stare as much, which photos do I look better generally; A or B? 1 or 2?
