“COULD I REALLY BE A MODEL?”

You’ve probably asked yourself that once or twice, wondering if you’re ACTUALLY good enough.

And then the doubts come in:
“Am I too late?”
“Too short?”
“Too average?”
“Do I even have that look?”

Let me break it down for you: simply, clearly, and honestly.

Here’s the bare minimum most agencies look for:

✅ Ages 14–35
✅ Height:
• Women: 168–180 cm
• Men: 183–190 cm
✅ Clear skin or a strong, unique look
✅ Defined bone structure or standout features
✅ A face that fits today’s fashion trends
✅ The ability to take direction well

✨ “But what if I have acne?”
Skin is important, but it’s not the only thing.
If you’ve got potential — you can start now.
Just know that skincare becomes part of the job. A model should look expensive.

And no — you don’t have to be “perfect.”
But there are standards. And if you’re not sure where you stand, there’s a real way to find out — before wasting time or money.

If you’re open, curious, serious about improving, and ready for honest feedback from real agencies…

START HERE:

WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS AFTER YOU SIGN WITH AN AGENCY

EXPECTATIONS vs REALITY

EXPECTATIONS (what people think):
• Instant jobs and big campaigns.
• Agents handle everything while you “just show up.”
• No more investing in photos — your book is “done.”
• Daily glam teams, perfect skin/body, no stress.
• Travel all the time, and money rolling in from day one.

REALITY (what actually happens):
• You probably won’t get your first job right away.
• Many castings/self-tapes. Many “no’s.” That’s normal.
• You’ll keep building and regularly renewing your book: tests, polas, digitals. Some shoots the agency sets up, some you initiate, some paid by you, some barter.
• You will put a lot of effort into working on yourself: your body, your skin, your mindset, your energy, your posing as well as acting skills.
• First jobs are often e-comm/retail—great for learning, not always “glam.”
• “Options” don’t equal bookings. Cancellations happen.
• Payments can be slow (30–90 days). Learn invoices, usage, buyouts, rights.
• There are expenses: transport, grooming, digitals, test shoots, classes.
• Your IG matters — clients look. You’ll have to manage your socials like a mini-brand.
• Seasonality is real. Some months are hot, some are quiet.
• Feedback can sting. Or sometimes there is no feedback at all. Your job is to adjust, not crumble.
• You may be asked to change hair/brows/beard or keep a strict look.
• Travel/visas/market fit can delay momentum — timing matters.
• Not every agent is hands-on. Self-driven models move faster.
• You’ll learn to network with photographers, stylists, MUA’s — relationships get you bookings.
• Positives you will see: first request, first callback, first repeat client, first test that clicks, first tearsheet, mentors who advocate for you, and real growth in confidence + craft.

BOTTOM LINE: Signing is the start of a professional process, not the finish line. Treat it like a job: skills, stamina, strategy.

I’VE BEEN WORKING WITH MODELS FOR 2.5 YEARS, HERE IS WHAT I’VE LEARNED…

1. Presence beats perfection
The models who book aren’t “the prettiest” — they’re the most present. Open, connected, trusting. Energy first — angles later. 

2. Be a marketable character, not a mannequin
The industry buys ideas. Know your lane (clean commercial? edgy fashion?) and play it on purpose.

3. Snaps win the first battle
Daylight polas + studio polas + a short audition video open more doors than a thousand over-edited tests. Clarity > aesthetics.

4. A tight book beats a big one
10-15 strong, on-brand looks beat 100 random images. Range is good; chaos is not.

5. “No” is data
Rejection isn’t a verdict—it’s feedback on timing, market, materials. Learn, don’t spiral.

6. Casting ≠ contest
I know it’s a hard one to adopt, but treat every casting as research. You get information: interest level, notes, next steps. The other models are your fellow colleagues, not enemies.

7. Professionalism is the fastest glow-up
Be on time, read the brief, bring basics, communicate like an adult. Agents remember reliability more than your last viral reel.

8. Market reality matters
Height, hair, tattoos, beard, hijab, age — these shift what’s realistic in each market. Stop fighting the map; find the route that’s open.

9. Instagram is your storefront
Clear bio, clean highlights, recent polas pinned, simple grid. Make it easy for a booker to say “yes” in 30 seconds.

10. Guidance compounds
Beginners sign and even book quickly when materials, mindset, and direction align. Coaching isn’t a crutch—it’s a shortcut to doing it right.
