TikTok's hot passport photo trend is causing headaches at airports
Briefly

Influencer Alisha Marie's viral TikTok highlights the complications of having a glamorous passport photo, warning viewers that it can lead to unexpected issues at airport security.
As one TikToker humorously reflected, having a 'hot' passport picture seemed fun until she faced challenges at airport security due to the scanner's failure to recognize her.
The recent 'passport makeup' trend, where individuals glam up for passport photos, illustrates a growing desire for aesthetic appeal, often at the cost of practicality.
While makeup is permissible in passport photos, the U.S. Department of State emphasizes the photo's primary purpose is accurate identification, discouraging filters or overly styled images.
