What a beautiful photo. Did you tilt it after talking it? The reason I ask is that her hair seems to be defying gravity, with the angle of her head I don't think her hair would fall that way naturally.
Nicely done, but I think she's leaning a bit too far. Makes me want to turn my own head to get a better viwe. The hair across her face is distracting. You've captured a good expression and the black and white works well.
Like the catchlights in the eyes and the otherwise gentle lighting - very attractive pose and a crop that adds to the pleasing effect. Maybe the highlights in the headband are blown out but the effect doesn't detract.
