Today’s generation are quoted as millennials that implies as
a generation of selfie. There are a lot of people obsessed with taking selfies due
to the rise of social media sites such as Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and many
more. Most of your feed are dominated by selfie picture of your friends,
relative, and famous personalities.
The reason why people can’t resist to take
selfies in my opinion is that it gives them self-confidence and serves as a
tool for self-expression. Taking a selfie is considered as a “want” in the
beginning, however, as social media site’s slowly invades are daily life it
turns as a “necessity” to update the status of our lives.
I have come up with a guide for “Head turner: How to be a selfie expert”, these are the crucial factor that I consider when taking selfies.
- · Your elbow must be aligned with your shoulder while your arms is at a 60 degree angle in order to emphasize the shape of your face.
- · Your elbow must be lift up by 2 inches while your arms is at 60 degree angle in order to make your forehead appear narrow
Find your good side: It could be a front view and tilt on the right or left side
- · Front selfies are usually done by the people who have a face shape like oval because they have slim faces, while tilting your head up or down and right or left slim certain part of your face which can enhance your facial features and at the same time creates an illusion in order to have a proportion face.

- Avoid taking a picture against the light,
- natural lighting is the best source of light,
- play with shadows to contour and highlight you facial features,
- at night use lamp or any light source to have sufficient lighting in order to avoid grains in pictures
