Just some random girl.... with no mouth.Related content

Good thing you used the common symbols to indicate the features of this girl and her clothes.
Using lined paper for drawing is a bad idea. It is ok for rough and quick drafts so you can remember something.
Like this it disturbes the overall image a lot. It's harder to focus on the drawing itself that way.
The mouth is not the only thing that is missing here. The proportions are! These are key to a good drawing of the human body regardless of the style.
Practicing drawing, observing nature, learning from books and others and copying will improve your drawings a lot.
Studying the human body and its anatomy will boost your results.
Do not be afraid of drawing too much lines. Guidelines can be erased later and help establishing a pose.
In this picture the pose is rather stiff.
Do not be afraid of drawing certain bodyparts because they are "hard" to draw. It is true everyone of us has his problems with certain parts but courage n practice will help you to overcome that fear and further improve your art.
Hiding hands/ arms behind the back of the character is not really a solution, it will not help you improve and it certainly does not look good. (Kids often do that and I have done that too. 
Another thing that is missing are the feet. Character looks incomplete that way. Like this it seems you were really unconfortable with drawing the feet.
The girl has really strangeley bent nose. U used the wrong shape to indicate the nose here cuz the character is looking directly at the viewer but the nose you used is more suited for a 3/4 view or a profile.
Keep drawing and practicing and do not stop learing and observing... ever.

Hey, there's no need to be that harsh. She's a beginner artist, we all were at one time. I know this girl personally, and I think this critique is kind of mean. For one thing, you had no ups about her drawing. This is better then I could do when I was at her level! Her eyes are pretty good as well. We aren't all great artist at first, maybe if you said one or two things this girl needs to fix, then compliment on the eyes or clothes, that would be a nicer way to put it then pointing out every little mistake. Yes, the girl who drew this does need help with anatomy, but maybe that's her cartoony way of drawing! And when I read this over, you're just saying harsh comments over and over again. Next time you critique, be nice about it. She's trying, give her points for even doing that.

First of all this is not meant to sound harsh or mean or hurt somebody.
Sorry for being honest and not beautifying the whole thing.
It is called constructive criticism.
The thing is that we all get nice critiques fairly easy and sometimes it is not a bad thing.
Feels nice and is a good motivation, yes. BUT: Only the not so nice critiques make you improve.
Read carefully: I pointed out good stuff bout it at the beginning.
I did not point out every mistake. I just wanted to help, give advice and an idea at how to make it better next time.
And at the end I mentioned she should keep at it. Meaning this shouldn't demotivate her instead
she should draw and do her stuff and keep trying.
So much for trying to help somone get better at what they do.
Next time I will think about it twice before giving such honest n lengthy advice to your so called 'beginner artists'.
I'll be more careful from now on bout how I give advice to beginners.
At this point some credit goes to you for reading my comment even twice.(...)

lol I don't like it when people are making my friends feel bad, so I read it again,a little more carefully, to be sure what you said. Sorry for being harsh (if I was) but my friend just seemed angry, and I knew she wasn't going to do anything, so I did. Sorry again, and I'll see if I could help her with her art.
And it's not your fault, you didn't know. We all make mistakes
