I can't put my finger on it but the PP seems off and I don't understand why she would need face paint. I think it detracts from the scissors, which judging by your title, is the main subject.
Worried? Yes. Scared? Most likely. Hate? I don't see it.
All the technical is there, but I am finding that the make up is hurting the picture more than it is conveying the story.
I really like the pose and the thought behind the shot. I am not so keen on the post production work, for me I feel like you have over done it and you are lacking detail in the hair. This could have happened from you over smoothing or using negative clarity if this was a raw capture.
I don't understand all the orange. Was she attacked by makeup? A kid I used to babysit did that to any babysitter that wasn't me. I took it as a compliment, heh.
