You are absolutely right, but the main problem of the retoucher is that not many photographers allow you to post their pictures, especially before and after. And even if you see it, you can't be sure that these photos have been stolen, so always ask for a test photo. Because I saw several pages in IG with my work

That makes sense.  What are your rates and turn around time?

I was perusing the threads in search of a retoucher and noticed that a number of responders posted links to their work but very few showed before and after photos.  I would think before and after photos would be as crucial to a retoucher as before and after photos would be for a person that remodels a home or a person on a weight loss journey.
Am I missing something here?

I also think that a retoucher who shows his work without before and after is at least strange, because he is not a photographer, many retouchers start doing photo shoots themselves so that there are raw files for retouching, because photographers do not allow publishing files before retouching.
