Hello.

I don't feel comfortable uploading my face online, but I uploaded one with a hoodie and sunglasses, and therefore I can't continue the process to start free-lancing.

Can anyone help me with that?

Yes, if you want to get hired, put your face online. Your chances of getting hired without a picture are very low. People already have a hard time trying to find jobs with a picture. Without it, you will most likely only find scams. and you will only waste your time and maybe loose money.
