2. Why don't you try smiling and relaxing a bit when taking a selfie?

You are a nice looking man, and I like the shirt and tie.
But the look you have is a bit on the intense side.

3. They are a tad intimidating 😊. So if you are going

For a job in FBI they are perfect 🤩. I hear you, I take terrible pics. I have to take 50 to get one good one.

5. Go to a Professional-they can make changes digitally to soften the look

....our law firm does this. OK its a glamour shot but they really can make changes digitally-lighten blemishes, dark spots, even and reduce lines/creases etc

6. As my mother used to say...

7. Try squinting

Just a little!

Tighten your eye muscles up a bit as if you are looking into the sun, then look just beside the camera lens but into the distance.

And yeah - I hate taking selfies too.

8. Try to not lean into it so much.

Take the same pic with your camera at 12 o’clock high, middle, and low, and notice the differences.

What I do is just have someone else sit straight across from me and take the picture.

(EDIT: I’m a 59 year old male. I’ve been there. We didn’t grow up taking selfies...lol.)

Brighten up the lighting.
