Well, portraits aren't my cup of tea. It's something that I am working on. However, I think you need more contrast. Your darks aren't quite dark enough. Same goes with the lights. As for the hair, you may want to try softening up the strokes for the strands. It looks a bit harsh. Try doin' the entire shape of the hair a darker base color and then with lighter colors highlighting some parts to give it a more realistic feel. But definitely use thin strands and lower the opacity more.

Edit: Oh and one more thing. You might want to detail/sharpen it some, rather than the slightly blurry feel that it has right now. For example the lips, eyes, etc.
