Realistically not many people own a nice DSLR camera or know someone that has one to take pictures of them, let alone pay for professional photographer to take pictures of you so most of the time you're left to use your phone camera or an average digital camera.

Don't use a phone or cheap webcam, use a good camera!
Everyone has different features so you have to experiment with different elements and see which ones suit you best!
HOW TO TAKE A SELFIE=

-look nice (makeup, good clothes, brush teeth, plucking eyebrows, etc)

-angle= experiment with angles and see which one looks nicest (usually tilting your head a bit to the side and raising the camera a bit above eye-level)

-lighting= experiment with lighting (facing a window, putting your back to face a window, facing a lamp, etc. just find a light that brings out your features)

-if you want to add effects, experiment with different filters and choose the one you like best (sepia, black and white, etc)

Don't worry about facebook likes, they don't define beauty. You can be the prettiest girl in your class and still not have any likes

Just put your camera in continuous shot mode and then start giving poses, out of all those pictures I am sure you will get many cute pictures that fits your profile picture.

have a winter photoshoot or spring photo shoot/summer/fall and you can get some really cool pics. I like the app retrica on the app store but thats only if you want to take it with a phone. photo shoots are really fun, and they make for good profile pics!
