    Angles are also important. Hold the phone straight out in front of you or maybe in a way that highlights your best side. Don’t take selfies from directly overhead.

    I like to give advice on selfies even though I rarely take them.

    It’s kinda like I can tell you how to bowl but if I do it I’ll get a 46.

    Make sure the toilet behind you has been flushed.

    :lol: I’m still scarred from that girl’s selfie

    That's called the POV angle.

    Hmm. This is okay when there are two or more people present. Not ideal if alone. Better?

    Edit them to make yourself indistinguishable IRL.

    85 degree angle so you look 20lbs thinner
