2 Ways To Find Faces With Google Image Search

To force your image search to return faces only, append &imgtype=face to the end of image search URL.

For instance the normal image search query for Asin (popular bollywood actress), would be this,

http://images.google.co.in/images?hl=en&q=asin&btnG=Search+Images&gbv=2

To restrict this search to faces only, append &imgtype=face at the end, like this,

http://images.google.co.in/images?hl=en&q=asin&btnG=Search+Images&gbv=2&imgtype=face

That’s it. Now Google will restrict this search to faces only,

asin-image-search-1

Another, simpler way of doing this is to use Advanced Image Search. Click on Advanced Image Search on Google image search home page,

advanced-image-search

Now, to force google to search for faces only in the mage search, check the faces radio button,

restrict-google-search-to-face-only

That’s it.
