HAHAHAHA sorry. I'm not a native speaker but I've spent enough time in Mexico to know that "¿Qué te parece'" means "What do you think'" (about an aforementioned topic). Literally, "What does it look like to you'" By a stretch of imagination, it could also be construed to mean "What is something that looks like you'" which would be a very unnatural way of asking what someone looks like, and probably wouldn't be understood at all.

Stick with "¿Cómo eres'" which means what are you like, or if you need to specify their appearance, "¿Cómo eres físicamente'"That's the best way I know to say it.

Jcv, next time, try to translate it yourself, and then we will guide you. More people will respond to your posts if it looks like you are making an effort.

How do you say "What do you look like'"in Spanish

Have you tried our machine translator? It's rarely perfect, but it will give you a starting point.

In this case it would yield:

¿Qué te parece?

I would have guessed
¿Cómo te pareces?
but, at least, it told you a possible verb to use.

What do you look like'

I also like the first answer on this link using <>.
