No need to repeat 'look' again at the end. The sentence makes sense even without it. Hope it helps. 😊

“Look” at the end it’s understood, you don’t need to repeat it.

No need to add "look" at the end.

"It’s not an error to end a sentence with a preposition, but it is a little less formal. In emails, text messages, and notes to friends, it’s perfectly fine. But if you’re writing a research paper or submitting a business proposal and you want to sound very formal, avoid ending sentences with prepositions."
