Man With NO Facial Hair?

[FlexAce]

How do I get somebody with a clean-shaven face? 

For some reason, all prompts I try, like the ones below, give the man a goatee, mustache, or beard.  

It seems like Firefly does not know what a chin is.

I have the exact same issu. It makes this software unusable.

I tried yur prompts and got similar results!

Tried removing after the fact. Nope.

I guess Adobe will need to tweak the AI engine.

I tried the new negative prompts in Firefly and got better results. Not perfect, but better. Please also continue to share your feedback in the app. Just click the thumbs-up or down icon on the image you're giving feedback on.

Every male 20 years old and older has some kind of facial hair. This is very bizarre.

Same here, would be good if Adobe resolved this issue soon.

It is very hard, but I am up to about 50% using this:

Try typing in clear skin, for the face Seems to work

Gentle nudding seems to work!

I can't find the advanced settings help!

[DeanUtian]

@SamanthaFury1966 - The Advanced Settings was removed in a previous update. From what I understand, Adobe are looking to improve negative prompts in other ways.

[SamanthaFury1966]

I see for some reason it was removed maybe they will please put it back

[droopydog500]

At the time, Adobe said they were reimagining it. 🤷🏼

[SamanthaFury1966]

I hope they can get it back. Did you ever figure out any wording that would keep the beards away LOL!!

[Averil37022609anz8]

closest I've come is clean-skin. Youth 25, young boy 25.
But yeah its a lot of hit and miss with the wording

[droopydog500]

The problem is not getting consistent results with a single phrase. We need Adobe's help here on the next version of the model.

I have used: clean-shaven smooth-face fresh-face clear-chin bare-faced  with varying degrees of success.

[SamanthaFury1966]

Thanks to both of you I'll try some more of these I keep getting men with beards lol. And while we are at it so many of my women end up Asain too what's with that!!

[droopydog500]

Hi @SamanthaFury1966,

Are you in Asia? It tries to figure out where you are located and make people look like people from that region. That is not 100% accurate, but it can be overridden by specifying the race/region of the people explicitly.

not sure what the deal is, but no matter what word parameter I input, it keeps doing the opposite.

[droopydog500]

Hello @homeschool238,

Thank you for your message. I am sorry you are having this problem. 

Can you please share some example prompts and the results?

Thanks,

@homeschool238 if you are trying input negative or exemption prompts, currently Firefly does not comprehend so stating "No people" will do the opposite and include people.

[homeschool238]

no beard, beardless, clean shaven face, stubble - all of those it just keeps having a full bearded face! lol

[homeschool238]

uh, er... not sure why but okay. So.... how do I make it create what I'm wanting nd "not" what I'm not wanting?

[droopydog500]

Hello @homeschool238,

The model does not understand the concept of a word being negated by the word in front of it. So using "not [X]", "no [X]", "exclude [X]", and "without [X]" does not work. As you observed, it ignores the negation word and adds to the image the thing you are trying to avoid.  You basically need to find "positive" words and phrases telling the model what you want to see rather than telling it what you do not want to see.  Such as "flat land" rather than "no mountains".  If I am not sure how to describe something I want to exclude in a positive way, I will ask Google Gemini or ChatGPT for ideas.  Just be aware that when they give prompts, they are usually too wordy and conversational, so you have to edit them, but they are good for ideas.

I will add that beards appear to be a special case. They are very hard to get rid of. You can see here that even with this long prompt, not all the images are without beards:

clean-shaven smooth-face fresh-face clear-chin bare-faced youthful man looking in distance 

Adobe is aware of the beard problem and hopefully we will have a fix soon.

My best,

I'm glad they keep trying to fix this, just a note when you showed us the link we only see the one image of the blonde boy. 😉 Just so you'll know!! Thanks again! I keep hanging in there seeing what new people come up with!
