I'd hate to be really old and a relative or friend come up  to me and say:
"I've looked all over the net for 'naughty sex type stuff' you did years /decades ago.
but I can't find anything.
How boring"

face pics or not  i recongised a a good friend of mines younger sister,  just by her body shape and hair style.  i knew as soon as i saw the picture it was her 
Personally if i took a good face shot i probably would but i dont  i absolutly 10000 billion percent hate having my photos taken  although i can get great body and boob shots i can never feel relaxed enough to have a good face shot unless
1 im really really drunk
2 im caught totally unaware   
 

I show my face for a few reasons really, one because I think its pretty (not trying to be bigheaded here but it is a selling point, especially my eyes) and 2 because I dont give 2 shits what anyone thinks, I already have an admittedly now died off a bit rep in my local area from being a teenager, people round here know the score with me and I pride myself that I'm not like nearly all the girls round here who are early 20s and sat on benefits with numerous kids doing nothing, gaining weight and putting up with their waster boyfriends

My close family, my mum and younger sisters all know, they dont care and I've often shared funny stories with them, we are quite liberal girlies  I did tell my mum not to tell my dad who is a business exec in Florida as I wanted him to keep thinking of me as his little girl but she forgot and told him anyway! I went mad and suffice to say he wasnt really that happy but said he just wants me to be happy, he sends me ?200 a month extra cash too, also my his gran who is from Hong Kong worked as a WG a long time ago, so its in our family history

my friends all know though we dont really talk about it and I get the impression some of them think its 'weird', but hey thats civvie mindset for ya

Each girl has different circumstances to think of, I didnt show my face when I first started escorting as I saw that was the done thing but as I gained confidence and saw many other profiles with the girl showing it I thought, hey why not

I think its helped my business but face might not be a good feature of theirs to some girls so they might feel happier hiding it and just showing off their body, I dont think it matters to clients when they are booking but admittedly though I like my face I was always paranoid when I didnt show it that facially the client might not like me when he saw, although that has never happened and I have had field reports saying how 'stunning' it is (though I wouldnt go that far imo)

In my experience clients care more about a stunning figure, and a relaxed genuine experience than a face pic.

Really? I've lost count of the amount of times clients have told me an attractive face is very important, especially if they like GFE and its a let down turning up to someone with a BOB FOC

but then again you dont look at the mantelpiece whilst poking the fire 

My main reason for not showing my face is that I might get recognized by hotel staff and be refused stay or be kicked out. Or be recognized by the border control officials in places such as the Channel Islands, who from what I've read are really hostile to prostitution and have declined entry to escorts at the airport.

I'm not sure if my worry is adequate or excessive, because normally I would love to show my face, as I'm photogenic and look good in pictures. Otherwise I don't give a damn either about what others, including family, friends and ex co-workers might think.

Also it has not affected business one jot for me.  In my experience clients care more about a stunning figure, and a relaxed genuine experience than a face pic.

I've had the same experience - though I don't have a stunning body ROFL.  Guys tell you what they think you want to hear, just the same as we do to them. 
 
If guys are shallow enough to only want 'a pretty face' then they will probably be disappointed manies a time. 

I'm also with clover re travelling and hotels/apartments etc and being recognised.  I prefer to know i'm safe and secure in the places I tour in.

I'm always envious of girls who can show their faces, it seems so much easier than trying to hide what you do.  I do wish I was in that position even if it was just to stop the 'so what do you look like?' question.

Unfortunately it would not just be me that would be affected by me being open about what I do and show my face, but my family.  The Indian community are a nasty bunch when it comes to anything related to sex.  I remember when the "aunties" found out that a young married couple had indulged in some naughty pics.  They still give the poor girl dirty looks and shun her to this day. 

Mind you if I had no constraints I'd probably be some dirty porn star by now!

this is such a weird question, i mean how are you supposed to accurately describe exactly what your face looks like, all clients find different things attractive and you just cant describe what a face 'looks like' in words properly imo lol!
