Camgirl Question: I want to be a webcam model but...?

Here is a question I got from an aspiring webcam model and I get this question quite often. I've included my reply, however, I'm interested to hear words of advice from other camgirls. Read the question and my reply below, and then leave your advice to this lady in the comment box.

“I'm 21 years old. I'm from Puerto Rico and I want to become a webcam model, but there is a few things. Even if I'm comfortable with my body, I can't have nobody recognize who I am, it will damage my daytime career HUGE TIME, and I love my day career too. I also make YouTube videos related to my career, so I will need to be really careful. At first I was told I can wear a mask, but then I realize I can't. I don't know what to do! What tips can you give me to be a webcam model without looking like myself.”

The basic answer is some (but not all) cam sites allow the performer to block certain countries or regions from viewing her broadcast. Also, you can invest in some wigs and colored contacts, even though I don't think they really create so much of a dramatic change that you can't be identified by someone who really knows you. Furthermore, as I said in one of my channel videos, the only way people will find you is if, A) you tell them, or B) they are a visitor to the site you're on or other porn sites....in which case, how can they say anything to you? Isn't that the pot calling the kettle black?

“Second problem, I moved back with my parents because I can't afford living out anymore (this is why I need to become a webcam model), How do you do so your kid doesn't hear what you are doing, in my case my parents?”

The part I boldfaced and underlined is a huge red flag for me. You are basically saying you feel like you need to become a webcam model because of money or out of desperation for money. You have to have a reason for wanting to be in this business other than money. There will be days where you will make no or very little money and you will have to put in a lot of time & energy both on and off camera in order to make the money you do earn. If you don't have a non-money motivator, you will find yourself being inconsistent, getting defeated and giving up. I'm not saying that many don't get into the business for the money, but the ladies who make the most money and have the most fun doing it, are the models who do this because they truly enjoy it, want to do it, and don't care what anyone has to say about it.

As far as your living situation is concerned, you can cam at night when everyone is asleep, and use a microphone headset so that you don't have to be loud in order to be heard.

“The rest is ok with me, I have no problem getting naked or masturbating in camera. Please reply I'm really anxious about it! Thanks!”

I'd suggest that you look for a part time job in your daytime career field or a related field that won't cause you so much concern and feeling like you have to hide. Its awesome that you are a open and comfortable with yourself sexually, however, that doesn't mean being a webcam model is the best choice for you. If you still want to be a camgirl, please take time to watch all the videos on my YouTubechannel, so you can be fully aware of what this business entails and make an informed decision. Thank you for your questions and I hope this helps.
