Selfies mix psychology and biometrics: pick social feel or ID match
`selfie-mirror` addresses the mismatch between mirrored preview and saved files. Some people prefer the mirror look they rehearse in the bathroom; others need parity with rear-camera portraits or ID captures for consistency checks. Hair parts, asymmetric smiles, brow peaks, and spectacle reflections read differently after a flip. Background signage, tattoos, or slogan tees mirror too—easy to miss until publish. For onboarding, access badges, or face-match APIs, flipping without policy can drift embeddings away from enrollment. Batch retouch teams should ask clients whether social comfort or biometric alignment wins, because the export path differs. Apply global beauty passes only after locking orientation so localized edits do not mirror into the wrong cheek.
Selfie mirror workflow
- On `selfie-mirror`, choose social comfort versus ID or matcher alignment.
- Scan background text, tattoos, and wardrobe graphics for reversals.
- When identity matters, keep the unmirrored master plus a mirrored variant.
