The Southern Charms Fan Box

Just wondering what's behind the disturbing trend of cropping out the heads/faces in some Charms' photos.

It started with some of the Russian girls, like Angelina Gold, Ariadna, Nikka Love, etc. They would have a full profile picture, showing their face, but then, in every preview, their faces would be cropped out.

It even started to happen with the former Lovely Cat, now known as Macy Ssens. I've been a member of her site on and off for years, and now her face is hidden in 100% of her preview posts?

Now it's gotten to the point that two of the new Charms (Leila, Kiara Night) don't even show their faces in their profile pics.

If this is supposed to be some kind of sales technique, I hope it backfires badly. I personally will never subscribe to a Charm's site who doesn't show their face in their pictures.

I've noticed this too, and I'm also not a fan of the headless photoshoots. Seems to be becoming a trend at the moment, I just hope it doesn't last long.

I too am disturbed by the headless photoshoot. I have purchased multiple memberships during my time with Southern Charms, but there is no way that I could ever purchase a membership to a site where you don't see the model's face. It doesn't matter how great the body, there's no way to connect in any meaningful way unless you see the model's face. I hope the ladies and their photographers reconsider. There are at least three of the headless I would be interested to join if only I could see them in their entirety.

They're almost all Russian. I don't know if they speak English. I suspect that they have a handler of some sort, and I don't know if that person cares what we think.

I have to agree that all the charms that post headless shots, are from Eastern Europe. Most seem to use the same backdrops, props, etc. They seem to be part of a group. As are several other charms from that region, who post, and do sets together. They of course do not resort to the faceless, headless shots. One would think that SC would have some kind of standards for photography. Overall the quality seems to be lacking with newer charms.

I also wonder how this trend comes about.
Today once looked over the Main page and found 6 charms that have posted only such a headless pictures updates.
Personally, I find that a strange way to show something like this

I took a look and seen that too. I thought SC did not allow sites on SC with no face pics.
I know we can use body parts in some, but not the entire set, because you cannot tell who the model
is or if its even the charm in the pics.

I don't get it either, I'd much rather look at many of the other lovely ladies that are showing full pics!

I find it a little strange. I had to go looking. LOL. I mean it is different if you are doing an update with all feet or legs or butt or whatever. And that is only once in awhile. But cutting the heads off is definitely interesting and different. I wonder if they show full face in the member's only side?

I have to smile at the trend you're so rightfully complaining about. Way back before I was a charm none of the ladies were allowed to show their nipples (or anything else) on the free side. The fun I imagine was showing what you could to entice you sexy guys into joining. In my mind our smiles and expressions go a long way to enticing you to want more. Now it seems some of our sister charms are showing everything BUT their face. I don't buy memberships to charms sites, but I'm guessing that if you join, you'll see their faces in their club photos.

There are a couple key things that make this site great. One is that most of us are not professional models, instead we're the woman next door. The second is the potential interaction you can have with your favorite charms, most of us answer our email and take suggestions from our fans. You should definitely write to these lovely ladies and ask them to include some head shots in their updates. The third thing that makes this site great is the fabulous preview section that allows you guys to fantasize and decide who's site you're going to join next. In hiding their faces these charms are hurting their own sales.

I'm glad I'm not crazy and the only one who noticed this trend. It is bizarre. I know one model on the site started off showing her face in the preview section and no longer does so.

I guess if I had to sum it up in one word it would be "intimacy". Without the face there is no intimacy and without that there is no pleasure in the experience. The female form is gorgeous in all shapes and sizes but in isolation from the face it has a strangely cold anonymity.

I wonder if they are worried about being "discovered"?

I know some of us keep our websites a secret that might be why.

There is surely no marketing trick or trend behind that. These are just girls thinking someone would recognise them and they put headless pictures on. Daft as then we are sexy content providers and have you ever seen a headless pornstar hahaha.

For those who are thinking about doing that too. No, it isn't a good idea and doesn't do better sales at all. Nothing better for a man than seeing the charisma of a woman besides a sexy body. The smile, the sparkling eyes that gives the pictures this one thing.

I would compare it with those loads of pictures we get with only cock and belly of a man. So boring. Don't we also love to see the whole man, his shoulders, his eyes.

I have noticed the headless charms while ago. Familiar situation is sometimes when girl who want/don't want to be a "camgirl" and goes online. If she doesn't want to be recognized, she is hiding her face. I think in Member Area they are showing faces (at least I'm hoping for a guys who are getting memberships there IMHO face is more important than whole rest of the body to get the intimate between Charm and Member)
I also think those girls don't manage their sites. I guess photographers are "hiring" them for a photo-shoots and they pay them monthly.
I just want to make sure everyone understands me - it is ONLY my guessing. I may be wrong about that of course.

For me it looks a bit the quantity count not quality. I'm not telling my pics are always best of the best. But I'm not sending live every single photo of me. I don't hide (or cut) my face from the photos, to make sure none will recognize me.
Before I became Charm, when I decided to be a camgirl (ages ago lol) - I knew what can happen. I realized someone from my friends or family could find me online and recognize me. My boss (if I had any lol) could find me and recognize me. I decided to take that risk because I really wanted to fulfill my naughty side. I knew I'm more "the next door girl" than super-bomb... but I have my kinky site, which I can not separate or try to hide.
My family (beside my Dad I think LOL) knows what I'm doing "after work". My closest friends know that I'm modeling online time to time and about my SC Site. My first husband and my actual Hubby accepted me with my kinky nature. Pity there is no more Southern-Gents site my ex and my actual Hubby were Gents, and I had great fun making shots with them (not same time of course lol)
Have a good day

Maybe these headless charms are all from Sleepy Hollow...
