Hey there! The portrait doesn't look bad! Even the hair isn't too bad; you've simplified it, but I think it looks good. :) The main issue I see here isn't symmetry either. At the end of the day, our faces aren't 100% symmetrical, so it's perfectly fine if the drawings aren't completely symmetrical. What I would recommend is paying closer attention to the proportions. The nose is too elongated, which makes the ears look too small, as well as the chin. By reducing the length of the nose and positioning the eyes a little lower, the proportions of the face look more accurate. Remember that you can measure the face in thirds: from the forehead to the eyebrows, from the eyebrows to the nose, and from the nose to the chin. This will help you make sure the proportions look more accurate. :) Hope this helps!
