Ive been using geospheres for a little while now when i first started i used icosa and 1 seg but it made my mesh hard to add detial (connect and cut made it look planar) so im wondering whats the best amount and type?

Errr.. I think you're crazy using geospheres as starting points for complex objects, but anyway..
edit: unless your talking about HEADS as opposed to FACES

Geospheres are easier to work with when you set the base type to octa, at least these give you a few lines of symmetry. As for segments, just experiment until you have enough for the detail you need.

for human heads I always use a cube (1|1|1) and add a Meshsmooth modifier with 1 iretation and then convert it to ePoly.
