"What do you look like?"
I know that if you want to say "you look like a doctor" you'd say "pareces como un doctor", but if I want to say "what do you look like?", would that be said in the same way? "qué pareces como?"
Thank you! |

Actually, "Parece doctor" is "You look like a doctor."
In the question "What do you look like?" you're asking about a person's characteristics, so the phrase is "¿Cómo es?" |

Also:
¿A quien te pareces? o ¿Que pareces? |

Other options,
¿Qué aspecto tiene? ¿Qué imagen es la que da? ¿A qué se parece? ¿A quién se parece?
