Henri - Beautiful for moment, subject background, detail, light and color. I think it would benefit from a bit of crop on the left and top, such as this:
Stuart,

It's better .Thank you

Sometimes, we just need a little change to change one picture !

 

Thanks also to Robert,Martin,Vdb and Stuart for looking and comment

It's a real encouragement for me

Thanks to all of you :)

I'm sorry but think the light is absolutely horrible, the crossing shadows below the neck... and the over-exposures on the breast, face and nose

 

Furthermore the background could be darker to more emphasize the model.

 

A single softbox would have done the trick here. Are you just starting with lighting?

Reinier,

Thanks for your comment greatly appreciated

I understand what you mean.

As i said above,we are in bad condition of light with a flood of lights in this Samsung stand .

A lot of people are present during this Salon and "shooted" this model,so i am sorry for the over-exposure

Can you do something in "post-treatment" ?

aha yes, already better...only problem is that the shadow is unbelievable this way but it is a good attempt

 

This is my effort, took me about 10min.

Most crucial parts is dodged the face but slightly burned the nose. burned the lighter front shadow, dodged the darker shadow a bit, smudged that darker shadow into the lighter shadow. Smudged the darker shadown towards the shoulder Finally made it a duo-tone. You have to play a little with duotone but I like panatone 465C and play a bit with the curves

 

it is still not perfect I know...

btw that 2nd shot is unsharp, not really usable

 

in my edit I now see that the forehead still isn't very well

 

It is something I learned but still don't do it myself: when you have a picture you like put it away for 1-2 days a look at it again. Very often you see flaws you didn't see the first time.

 

finally lighting directly from above works very rarely, the shadows become weird so you have to know exactly what your doing when you use it
