Q: i have allways wondered..what do you have to do to become a model.. i think it would be something i really would lyk to do and i want more information on it
If you like travel, hard work, long days and keeping in shape, modeling might be for you.


Steps:
1. Consider your physical characteristics: Are you 5-foot-7 or taller? You should wear a size 4 to 6, and you should have a 32- to 35-inch bust, a 22- to 25-inch waist, and 33- to 36-inch hips.

2. Determine whether you have any distinctive features.

3. Work on having clear skin, healthy hair and straight teeth.

4. Consider your mental attitude: You should be ambitious, confident, organized, willing to travel or move to foreign cities, able to spend and invest wisely, and able to take rejection.

5. Visit local modeling agencies to find an agent willing to help you build a portfolio.

6. Go to castings and "go-sees" with your portfolio in hand to win potential clients and get modeling jobs.

7. Be prompt and professional. Exhibit the confidence that you will use to sell products.


Tips:
Catalog models don't always have to be 5-foot-7 or taller, but they do have to be thin. Runway models are required to be at least 5-foot-9.

Teen or junior models must be 5-foot-6 and at least 12 years old, with youthful looks.


Warnings:
Modeling is not always glamorous. Long days of castings and go-sees, long trips on the road, rejection and stiff competition can be stressful.

Speak with a reputable professional before deciding whether modeling is for you.




(I hope this is what you're looking for.)

Heyyyy, I'm jess. I love to help other people, no matter what. I've been through enough bs to know when to just stop and walk away. I don't judge; feel free to ask me anything. I have quite the temper. But, what makes me a good advice-giver is that for the most part, I'm genuinely empathetic and willing to help.
(:

I've had a lot of experiences with piercings, bullying, family problems, and even sexual issues (no std's)- but with the emotional part of it. I love music, so I give good, basic advice about that, too. Also, I deal with severe anxiety and depression, and have been in treatment numerous times. On top of that, I have OCD (Obsessive Complulsive Disorder), and because I've been around people addicted to drugs, or cutting, I can help! Just give me the chance.
