Basic things like: "{uploaded image of a man} can you remove the glasses?" or "make everyone in the picture smile" or "open the eyes of everyone in the photo". Nothing that a human would consider "unsafe". I am based in EU and using Google AI Studio with all safety toggles set to "Off".

I noticed that I get far fewer refusals when I set my VPN to the USA.

For a joke between friends I had it take my selfie and make me a bald Catholic priest and then add hair to a friend who is bald. No refusals, although those are pretty tame. In contrast to the quality images nano-banana produced, Copilot removed my glasses and made my eyes brown.
Strange. I wouldn't have thought the safety rules would differ by region, at least not for things like that. I uploaded a photo and asked to change the glasses and change the shirt and it did both with no problem.
I just went back to the chat and asked it to remove the glasses and it worked. Asking it to remove the shirt also succeeded, although a) this is a head and shoulders photo so nothing NSFW, and b) it didn't do a great job of guessing what my shoulders look like.
