The individual has voluminous dark brown or black curly hair that covers the top of the head and extends to the sides. Skin tone appears light with subtle shading on cheeks and jawline. Visible facial features include closed eyes, a defined nose, lips with red coloration, and short beard stubble on chin and jaw.
