Let’s clear something up straight away: you do not need a Hollywood studio to start webcam modelling. You don’t need ring lights the size of dinner plates, you don’t need a top-of-the-range MacBook and you definitely don’t need a tech degree.

What you actually need is wonderfully simple:

✨ 1. A device with a camera

Laptop, phone, tablet - honestly, whatever you already use to scroll TikTok will probably do the job.

✨ 2. Decent lighting

Natural daylight? Fabulous.
A cheap ring light from Amazon? Also fabulous.
Just avoid working in the dark like a mysterious cave creature.

✨ 3. Good Wi-Fi

If Netflix works, you’re probably fine.
If Netflix buffers, then it’s time to politely bully your router.

✨ 4. A comfy, private space

Your bedroom.
Your living room.
Anywhere with a door that closes and vibes that feel like “queen energy.”

✨ Optional extras (AKA: future you might treat yourself)

• Cute outfits
• A mic for extra crisp sound
• Little props
• Fairy lights (because they have magical powers, obviously)

Starting webcam modelling doesn’t require a massive investment - just confidence, curiosity and the willingness to have fun with it. ShyGirl helps you make the most of whatever setup you already have.
