Every girl and a huge number of guys dream of becoming models. At the same time, most see themselves posing for the camera in clothes from fashion brands, advertising popular resorts, luxury hotels and more. In other words, according to the prevailing number of people, a model is a person who must have a beautiful face, otherwise you can’t get into business. However, the face of the girl, which will be discussed in the article, is practically unknown to anyone, but her hands in fashion houses are literally worth its weight in gold.
Who is a hand model?
When people think about the career of a model, they don’t consider modeling hands. Rather, many do not even know that such a niche exists. But she is and brings a lot of money. Of course, if we are talking about a professional in their field.
Perhaps you are smiling or twisting at the temple now, but in reality, moving your fingertips will help to make a decent capital. Clear evidence of this is Nina Taylor, who insured $ 2.5 million in her hands. Which in terms of rubles equals approximately 150 million. An impressive amount, but for what?
Who is Nina Taylor?
According to the Daily Mail, this girl is a professional model from London who previously worked for a number of major fashion and beauty brands, including Chanel, Tom Ford, Fendi, Charlotte Tilbury and many others.
A model that is so unlike the usual Irina Shayk, Natalya Vodyanova, Kara Delevingne, Adrian Lim and the like is very popular. And can earn up to $ 6,000 per shot. She was also an understudy Heidi Klum, Jennifer Lawrence, Scarlett Johansson, Demi Moore, Georgia May Jagger and Kate Moss. But despite this, Nina Taylor is unknown to the general public. Her name does not tell anyone anything, and few people in the crowd will notice the face. And all because only her hands appear in the frame. And this is how it happens.
Not a job, but a laf!
People who first learn about the profession being studied, and about Nina Taylor in particular, begin to wave their hands indignantly, claiming that the girl gets the money literally for nothing. However, according to her admission, this is a titanic work. And this is not about shooting, but about hand care.
Talking about his unconventional career, Taylor says: “Hands should be straight, without scars, spots, bent fingers, wrinkles. Only a model with perfectly folded hands can make a career. Of course, they are not given to everyone by nature, but even those who are lucky "must constantly take care of their" wealth ", look after them, practice, trying different positions and angles."
Advantages and disadvantages
During the interview, Nina Taylor shared the intricacies of the profession: “If you look at a nail with a camera, you can see all the defects and flaws. Therefore, I have to carefully monitor my hands, especially painstakingly prepare for shooting or showing. I can’t have rough skin, burrs or exfoliating nails. In addition, it is important to train grace and plastic. All this comes with experience, but it is important to constantly improve. Otherwise, not becoming a professional. But just being with your hands means being anonymous, there is no conflict of interest. Therefore, you can collaborate with different brands. "
