what about leg hair?
Generally, what you see is what you get! If the model has shaved legs in their modeling profile, they will arrive with shaved legs for the shoot. Alternatively, if they have leg hair, you can expect hair on the booking.
You may, however, indicate a shaved leg preference during model selection. Please note that a model could decide to not service bookings with shaved leg preferences different than what is shown in their profile.

Foot models will arrive with the standard wardrobe options and can feature any combination of those items: from bare legs + feet to long pants + shoes. Any additional wardrobe options (bottoms, socks, shoes, sandals, jewelry, etc.) should be sent to the studio with your product.

Sign in, browse, and book with models from any city directly at book.soona.co/directory. Or, after your booking is made, you'll go through model selection which will surface the active models in the city your booking is assigned to. Filters are available for basic traits such as shoe size, skin tone, gender, age and more.
You'll use portfolio photos and model details to determine your top 2-3 model preferences. Then you'll describe any extra model details such as shaving, nail, and wardrobe needs. If you decide to send wardrobe, your chosen model's sizes will be surfaced.
From there, soona does the rest! We will communicate and coordinate with the model. You get to focus on shipping your product, building your shotlist, or any other prep.
