What do you reckon? I don't think the skin tone is too good. And the hair looks a bit .. greenish? Don't know why , it's just a pale brown.

Hi rcat, nice job.

Indeed, as you pointed out, the skin tone will need to be fixed, try levels or perhaps, a hue and saturation adjustment will help.

Keep it up.
 
I think it's the skin tone around the eyes that is off, maybe add some blemishes in the colour like the odd freckle or spot. Also the lips should maybe a different colour, and a bit of the background is still showing.
Otherwise, very good job, especially for a first go. And again, keep it up!
 
Lol , there's always one isn't there? Err.. thanks for your interest.

Thanks for the crits I totally forgot to make a selection to change the lips.
Unfortunately I flattened the image (something I've learned not to do recently), so I'm gonna leave this and move onto something else to practice on.
