Photoshop is a powerful tool for editing and adding effects to photos, from smoothing skin and adjusting colors to creating special effects like light, fire, or even supernatural elements. Many female cosplayers use Photoshop to enhance their images, producing photos that are not only beautiful but also highly artistic. Impressive final results are nothing new. However, some viewers have expressed dissatisfaction, feeling that many cosplay photos look too “fake” and lack authenticity.
This sparked debate around posts by cosplayer Hẩu Hẩu Ẳng Rì. With over ten thousand followers, her use of photo editing tools disappointed some viewers. They felt her cosplay images looked too “unreal” and lacked genuine emotion. They argued that over-editing made the photos lose their natural feel and true expression.
Known for being straightforward, Hẩu Hẩu once clearly stated in a post, “I cosplay because I love it, so I’m not professional. My photos will always be fully edited, so please don’t message me saying I only use Photoshop. I will block you.” The cosplayer explained she wants her work to look as polished as possible. She also said she’s not afraid to block anyone who acts “toxic about this issue.” For her, using Photoshop isn’t bad, it’s a way to beautify, show creativity, and add a personal touch to each photo, helping build her brand.
Pinned at the top of her profile, the cosplayer also shared more about herself to help fans understand her better. She hopes to avoid misunderstandings and unnecessary trouble: “I just hang out with friends, so please don’t invite me out to eat or party. I’m very introverted. I hope we can be close friends who understand each other well first, then maybe in the future we can hang out together.
Please comment and message politely. If you’re toxic, I will block you immediately, no extra warnings. If you don’t like me, just block me too so we don’t waste each other’s time.”
Hẩu Hẩu’s response was both honest and tactful, earning her strong respect. She’s not aiming to build a huge community but hopes for a positive, understanding, and empathetic group of followers.
