Art is not money, best portraits are art, not what you're striving at.Yes, I am sure that there are some starving pros out there who specialize in unflattering portraits of their subjects but I am not one of them and to belabour what should be obvious, best work in portraiture does concern flattering the subject.

But I agree with you on de-emphasizing on unpleasing aspects of a face to please the customer.
Anyway, right or wrong on this is retarded, so I'll stop arguing now. Here's my attempt:
What I did:
Sharpened the eyes, and increase of the contrast of the highlights on the eyes.
Increased overall contrast a bit.
Remove blue-cast on the hair to the right.
Lighten the background.
