Bojan,

A few things that could be changed to improve the portrait...

She doesn't look very happy... in fact, she looks rather angry or at least grumpy.

Give her some headroom. By cropping into her hair you would need a much tighter crop on the bottom to compositionally balance the top and the bottom. You would have to crop a bit above her neckline. It would be better to add some space above her.

Her left arm (on the right side of the photograph) looks a bit awkward in the image. There is too much of it showing. It draws attention away from her face.

One catchlight per eye is preferred.

The burning-in of the edges should be subtle. It shouldn't draw attention to itself.

Her skin tone could be improved. The overall tone has a little too much green and blue in it.

The highlights on the tip of her nose and in the middle her chin are slightly clipped.

The texture of her skin looks very rough. You need to soften it -- smooth it out.

Nice shot,

Mark

I think it's just fine.  It's a slightly rough, slightly unpolished portrait (no smile, somewhat rough skin), but she has a personality that's coming through, and it matches what I see in her hair (somewhat free-flowing, multi-hued).  Yeah, you have a choice of making her into a plastic beauty queen, or you can find a photo that reflects her as a person just as you know her.  Consider the comments that others offer (e.g., I would echo the slightly greenish tint), but in the end only you know what you want the photo to say or to reflect.

Bojan, I do like it very much particularly because it is very raw.  No one looks fresh when they first wake up. I'm not a fan of rules when it comes to one's vision for an image.  My only suggestion is more head-space as someone already suggested and her body position seems awkward almost uncomfortable.  The post process job is different but I don't see why it can't be a style unique to your work.  What matters most is that you like it.

Best,

David

On the plus side I like the natural feel this image portrays...natural skin tones (love the freckles), wild flowing hair, pentrating gaze...on the negative side there is a bit of shine on her nose that is a bit distracting and for some reason the crop is too restrictive for my taste...her pose is okay, but seems a bit uncomfortable for your model...just a few thoughts...overall though I like this image.
