So you've seen them in the catalogs, you've seen them in the magazines, in the ads --
everywhere around the surf stores. You want to be one? Hi, I'm Hazely Lopez, director
of Hazely Academy of Refinement and Modeling, and I'm here to talk to you about how to become
a Roxy model. Well, the first thing you always want to make sure you do is take care of yourself.
Take care of your body. The prototype that they have for Roxy models is, of course, having
a young teen with, you know, tanned skin, tight body, firm...you know, everything where
it's supposed to be. Also, they're usually looking at the bodies that have, you know,
at least a slightly some abs, long, maybe skinny legs, but athletic legs -- everything
that looks in shape. Also, they're looking for a tanned skin, not a burn from a tanning
salon skin, but more of a natural skin. And the great way to achieve that tanning skin
is, of course, practicing sports that go with Roxy, like surfing or swimming. This is definitely
going to get that perfect style that you need to get for yourself. So once you're all set
in your image, you're now going to take the next step to expose yourself. You need a comp
card of, of course, you pictures with your bathing suit -- of course professional pictures
that you're going to be taking -- and actually make a portfolio. You want to send those to
agencies. And once you are interviewed by the agencies, the first thing you want to
make sure is you make them clear what your goals are. You want to be a Roxy model and
that's what you need to tell them and let them know. After that, it's just going to
the casting, always making sure you're on time and winning those casting directors and
photographers over. I am Hazely Lopez, director of Hazely Academy of Refinement and Modeling,
and I hope to see you in the next catalog of Roxy.
