About Me –
Daniel Neuhaus
Face Reader
I’m Daniel – and I support people in encountering themselves through their own face. With a gaze that doesn’t project, but reveals what has always been there
“The feeling of truly being seen is one of the most beautiful experiences we can have.”
A gaze that changed something
within me
Feeling truly seen
It’s an indescribably beautiful feeling. And for me, it wasn’t my closest circle, not family or long-time friends – but a Face Reader with whom I experienced this for the very first time. Someone I had never met before. And yet, for the first time, I felt: someone truly understands me. That experience set a lot in motion.
It was the moment I began to make peace with myself – because I felt, perhaps for the first time, that I am perfectly fine just the way I am.
My path was rarely a straight line
If you look at my life, you’ll see many new beginnings. I was a managing director, janitor, musician, craftsman – lived in different places and even spent a few years abroad.
For a long time, I saw this as inconsistency. I kept feeling like: I can do everything somehow, but nothing really well. This restlessness and dissatisfaction accompanied me for years. And at some point, it became too much.
After a burnout in 2011, I gradually slid into a phase of depression. I realized: things couldn’t go on like this – and I began asking myself questions I had long avoided.
One of the most important was: Who am I, really? And another, just as crucial: What do I actually want? What are my own wishes and dreams – and which ones were never mine to begin with?
These questions were uncomfortable and anything but easy to answer. But they were honest – with myself. And they opened something in me that I had long covered up: the connection to myself.
How Face Reading Came
Into My Life
I spent four years living in Guangzhou, a city in southern China near Hong Kong. That’s where I first encountered Chinese Face Reading – as a natural part of local culture and even business negotiations. It sparked my curiosity. But my first truly profound Face Reading experience happened elsewhere.
I still remember the moment clearly: A person who didn’t know me spoke about my face and my personality – and touched something in me I could hardly believe. It felt like they were laying out the unique blueprint of my soul in front of me.
For the first time, I began to truly understand myself. Suddenly, connections that had always felt blurry became clear. And the most beautiful part of this discovery? It was the first time in my life that I stopped fighting parts of my own personality.
My path began to deepen
From that point on, Face Reading never let go of me. I began to study – not out of ambition, but from a deep inner wish to truly understand Face Reading.
I’ve had many teachers along the way. Some I met in person, others I got to know through books, through their language, their attitude, and their unique perspectives on this multifaceted field. They came from Germany, the U.S., India, and Romania. Some schools were Western in approach, others shaped by Eastern tradition. And what I’m deeply grateful for: Over time, I developed a close connection – even friendships – with many of these teachers. To this day, these relationships offer me support, inspiration, and space for open exchange.
One influence stands out: the Chinese Face Reading literature on Siang Mien, which has accompanied and shaped me for years. My motivation has always been to understand people more deeply – not to see through them, but to make their inner beauty visible. To open up a more compassionate, empathetic way of interacting. And ultimately, to help people reconnect with themselves.
“What we’ve felt inside for a long time becomes visible in the face – once we’re ready to truly look.”
Reading faces means remembering
What I do today is hard to put into words. Yes, I read faces. But really, I read people – their talents, their strengths, their stories.
And sometimes, I see the parts they themselves have forgotten. That’s why Face Reading, to me, always feels like a gentle reminder – of who we are at our core, of the unique personality we brought into this life. And that recognition can change everything.
I love witnessing the moment people begin to truly see themselves. When they realize: There’s so much more within me than I ever thought. And what’s there isn’t wrong – it’s the uniquely gifted perfection of who I am. Complete, just as I am.
And what else?
-
I played piano in bands for over twenty years – entirely by ear, never reading music.
-
In China, a tame budgie flew into my life. One day, it started speaking German and English.
-
Harzer cheese, mushrooms, and raisins? Not for me.
-
When it’s humid outside, my hair curls up like a bird might want to nest in it.
-
No coffee in the morning? Better not make any major decisions.
If you feel that something inside you longs to be seen
Then I’d be happy to walk a part of the way with you. With calm presence and clarity – and with an eye for what you may have felt deep inside for a long time, but never seen reflected quite so clearly.
I’m looking forward to meeting you!

What to expect in a personal Face Reading
A personal Face Reading with me is more than just an analysis. It’s a space where you can meet yourself anew – with clarity, attentiveness, and an open gaze. I take time for you, your face, and your questions.
It’s not about putting you into categories or reading types, but about uncovering what makes you unique at your very core. You’ll discover the talents within you, the potential that may have long awaited expression, and what your face reveals about your inner blueprint.
If you feel the desire to understand yourself on a deeper level, I’ll gladly accompany you on that journey.
