In Her Shoes: The Career and Life of a Hand Model

What Does It Take to Be a Hand Model?

"The interesting thing about hand modeling is that you have to have beautiful hands in order to be a hand model, and then on top of that you have to have very steady hands to be able to model interesting motions over and over again on camera. So there is actually a skill on top of the prerequisite of having pretty hands genetically."

What Are Considered Beautiful Hands?

"A nice even skin tone, no visible scars or marks, knuckles that do not protrude, long straight fingers, nice curved nail bed, long nail beds are a plus, no white marks on the nails, hairless, and no wrinkles or age spots.

Those are the reasons that I've been given as to what makes my hands great."
