Is 20 a good age to start a career in modeling??
Or from 20 years on i mean..

I'm asking cuz i've seen some histories about famous models that were discovered when they were 14 or 16 years old... really young..

What do u think?

:dunno:

No it's not too late. If you have ever seen the show America's next top model you will see that the majority of the models on the show are aged between 19 and 21. So you are at the perfect age right now.
You can assume that your career in modeling is going to have a fairly short life span of around 10 years if you are lucky. There aren't too many models working into their 30's. Heidi Klum and Claudia Schiffer are both in their mid 30's but they are probably the exception to the rule.
My advice is that if it is something you really want to do then start now and pursue it actively because the longer it takes you to get established the shorter your career will be.
You look amazing so I'm sure that you will have no problems finding work. Get yourself some quality images and a good agency.
Best of luck Mike

i think 20 is just perfect.!!!

i am 17...right now...lol

but i think 20 is fine. :D

20 is about the age that girls are peaking in the industry.

That doesn't mean it's too late, but that you need to be as focused and smart about it as you can.

It's different for men though. They don't hit full straps till a few years later.

Of course some "super duper types" who hit pay dirt with international campaigns can find success at early ages like 16 for the girls and 18 for the guys... the rest of us slog it out in the commercial and catalogue market. And respectively, it's not how old you are so much... but how old you look.

That being said, maturity or character will go along way too : )

Good luck,

Romeo.

i just begin i have 20 too but is the first step.good luck
