Head Shots of Hand Models Shines a Light on a Strange Profession

— January 14, 2015 — Fashion
'Head Shots of Hand Models' is a book by M.G.T Studio featuring the seldom-seen mugs of models signed to the cleverly-named Hired Hands Agency.

It hardly ever crosses our minds that the hands we see moisturizing, wearing engagement rings or pouring that mystery blue liquid onto sheets of paper towel actually belong to living, breathing human beings, walking the streets. In fact, we could cross paths with hand models all the time, and never know it: totally unaware that their phalanges could well be insured for up to seven figures.

Executive creative director of Anomaly London Alex Holder, explains, “After spending lots of time on sets with hand and feet models I became fascinated with this strange industry. How did they become hand models? Were they ‘spotted’? How do they look after their hands?”



Trend Themes
1. Hand Model Industry - The demand for hand models and the intrigue surrounding their profession presents opportunities for new agencies and platforms catering specifically to the needs of hand models.
2. Celebrity Hand Modeling - The rise of celebrity hand models offers opportunities for collaborations between celebrities and brands to showcase exclusive hand products or create marketing campaigns centered around the hands.
3. Hand Model Wellness - The increasing focus on hand health and care creates opportunities for innovative hand care products, specialized spas or wellness centers catering to the needs of hand models and anyone interested in maintaining healthy hands.
Industry Implications
1. Modeling Agencies - Modeling agencies can explore the untapped potential of hand models by creating dedicated divisions or agencies that exclusively represent hand models.
2. Beauty and Skincare - Beauty and skincare brands can develop hand-specific products or collaborate with hand models to create signature collections that highlight the importance of hand care.
3. Wellness and Spa - Wellness and spa businesses can create specialized hand treatments, spas, or wellness centers that focus on maintaining hand health and catering to hand models' unique needs.
