When taking a selfie, there are many things that come into play before it winds up on Instagram.
1. Lighting
It actually matters, believe it or not.
2. Camera angle
Double chin or super skinny? Hold the camera higher and there is a huge difference from holding it lower.
3. Wearing makeup
I am sure we are all guilty for doing our makeup, just to take a selfie.
4. Perfect hair
Before every selfie is five minutes of moving and fixing hair to make it look perfect.
5. The head tilt
It is a proven fact that most people do look better from the left side. Head tilts help.
6. The background
The nice outdoors is probably going to look better then having your messy, unmade bed in the background.
7. How many was that?
Behind every good selfie, is about 30 others that didn't quite make the cut.
8. Those mirror shots
Nothing ruins a cute outfit or great hair day more than a toilet right behind you.
9. Duck faces
Quack.
10. Flash fail
Nailed it.
11. The selfie stick
Now banned from most museums, parks, stadiums and public places.
