Measure and record your bust size, waist and hips. Also record your weight, dress size and shoe size, eye and hair color as well as your height. You have to be honest with your measurements as they will be later checked by professionals. You have to be up to 5 feet 6 inches to become a model at 14. If you are not yet that tall you can calculate if you would be that tall, by considering how tall your parents are.

A model has to be loved by the camera. You need to show that you are photogenic and able to look good without heavy makeup or special effects. So get some photos taken of your face and body. They may not be expensive or professional pictures. Just be sure that they focus on your natural features. The aim is to show agents that you have potential.

After you have made a portfolio of your best photos, you need to shop for modeling agents. You will need them to become a successful model. For those who live or are close to large cities, you can call up their offices to make appointments. It is advisable that a parent or guardian accompany the 14 year old to see the agent. Some agencies will refer you to other reputable agencies if they are not interested. If you are not close to a large city you can mail in your pictures. Take note that legitimate top agencies do not place ads for models.

There are various types of modeling careers that you can consider. Go with your passion and determination. Have the right attitude and take the time to learn all that is necessary.
