Description
The face of this donor is round and youthful. The hair is tied back with a headband. Two small curls emerge on the forehead and other small curls at the temples. The rest of the hair is smooth and flattened. The face is inspired by Western models: frowning eyebrows, deep eyes, half-open lips and a slightly tilted head.
