Ms. Namita Nayyar:
For a plus-zise model whose just starting out, what would be your Top 3 tips?
Ms. Hayley Herms:
1. Have your own photoshoot to create your portfolio – don’t wait to be discovered
2. Realize in the beginning – it’ll cost you a lot of free time, gas, miles, etc., but if you really want it, its worth the work. You have to be willing to put in the work.
3. BE EASY TO WORK WITH – don’t throw fits on set, don’t complain about the shoes they put you in, you’re a model, thats your job to be a canvas.
Ms. Namita Nayyar:
In the present day scenario, with the rise of social media, how do you think has social media impacted an everyday woman, bringing in multi-fold opportunities to them? Also, what according to you is the one worst thing about it?
Ms. Hayley Herms:
I think social media has been able to show the everyday woman that there are more “everyday” beautiful woman than just main the “everyday” woman we are shown by society through movies and commercials. Its given all types of diverse woman, diverse platforms to have their voices heard and bring in a community around them that feels like a family. In general, I hate social media and try to spend as much time away from it as possible – the worst thing about is how sick in the head people can get by how much time we waste obsessing over people in unhealthy fashions. My favorite tip – if you follow people that make you feel obsessed or addicted and/or not good enough to be you – have the power to hit the unfollow button and walk away.
