I’m a big fan of my Zoe head. I’m way too busy making things ( mostly clothes and videos) to mess with it, so I never change it. I like how I look, more importantly other avs tell me THEY like how I look. It’s definitely not the same as anybody else, and I like that.
I used Zoe for a long time too! It was my main head for a fairly long time. I love that both you and others are loving how it looks on you!
