5 IMPORTANT STEPS TO BECOMING A SUCCESSFUL MODEL.

1. KNOW YOUR MARKET.

One of the most important steps to becoming a model is knowing your market.what does this mean?well for starters,depending on the area you live in ,certain trends and looks are more popular than others.for instance runaway model and fashion show modeling are not as widespread as commercial modeling for print occasions like magazines,newspaper and store sales papers.also knowing your market will help you know what look the agencies arround you are looking for.if your look doesnt fit your market,move to an area that does.Also know whether you are auditioning for a market tha advertises pettie for a targeted market like natural living,city,trends,cosmetics company,etc.

2.BE AWARE.

One of my top tips for becoming a model is to be aware of what you will face.know that girls can be cut-throat,the wrong agencies may ask you to sacrifice your morals,intergrity or beiefs just to obtains certain photo,and know that it can be very tiring job.Also be aware that the idea of modeling is not to give you a fame,but instead to create a certain wanted look by photographers and companies.you may ask to cut or colour your hair,wear an outfit you dont like,or spends endless hours travelling to the right photo shoot location just for one shot.you may also be on set for anywhere from 8-12 hours or even more than that the point of using model to creat the right photo.many photographers,agencies and product campaigns put the photo goal ahead of the models.

3.KEEP YOUR VALUES.

Many girls who dont intend on compromising their values end up so if  they dont know ahead of time just what their values are.dont ever sacrifices yourself to become a model.the modeling world can be laced with drugs,alchol,sex-trades,rape,greed and more if you get in with the wrong crowd,which is easy to do when you are looking for a quick route to fame and fortune.never do anything it takes to get to the top.you will regret it later.out of local modeling gigs most oulets for modeling lead to sketchy,compromising situations.know your value and stick to your guns!on the other hand,the right agencies will honor your values and lead you to a great career.

4.GET A GOOD HEADSHOT.

When it comes to modeling industry,you wont get anywhere without a headshot to  get you started.have someone you know or a photographer take a natural headshot of you?NO!photo-touching,hardly any makeup,and simple hair should be on top  three key points of your photo.I am serious!modeling agencies hate photoshopped pictures,makeup,fancy hair style,or overdone looks.they want to see you in the raw to see if you could transformed into a variety of looks.Remember,you are prettyjust as you are,so let those agencies see you!Most importantly,no glamour shot photos!

5.GET SOME PRATICES.

Dont expect to walk into a modeling agency,do a few twiris and expect them to sign you.Anywhere from 10-20 people a day walkrd through the doors unexpectedly asking to meet the owner of the agencies are extremely busy and usually have girls fill out paperwork and submit photo for review.They almost never see girls by just walking in.know this ahead of time and grt some pratices behind your belt.If you do called in for a meet and greet,you need to keep your look casual,yet also have a confident walk and not look fake.

PRATICE!!!
