Don’t want to see their picture with their phone number

Is there a way to not see or to disable seeing peoples profile picture from their phone number when they set it up like that, some peoples face genuinely boils my blood and I don’t want to see them but I have to be in contact so everytime they text, their picture appears and ruins my day
