I have a strict "no cross-contamination" rule when it comes to photos. To protect my identity, I make sure not to use photos that exist anywhere on my social-media accounts. Many sugar daddies will run a reverse-image search of sugar babies' profile pictures in an attempt to avoid scammers who are using photos from models and influencers. The secrecy of the sugaring lifestyle means I have to be careful about the pictures I use on my dating profiles.
Being deceptive with appearances will only hurt you later. I don't get discouraged, and I try to attract only men who I think will find me attractive. This is largely untrue - being traditionally attractive certainly helps, but a sugar baby can look like any woman of just about any age.
I think the most common misconception about becoming a sugar baby is that sugar daddies are looking to date only 18-year-old blond models. (And I've had men straight-up message me, "Thank goodness you don't have a dog-filter picture!") While face-altering filters exist and can help mask your identity, apparently it's a turnoff for men. The key thing is honesty, both in your self-descriptions and your pictures. I described my personality and wrote a few charming epithets that I thought might be appealing to the kind of man I'd like to spend time with. Getting started with a dating profile as a sugar baby is pretty simple. Marcus Hessenberg/BarcroftImages/Barcroft Media via Getty Images As a woman in a major city with an appreciation for societal deviance, I figured the lifestyle might suit me well. I wanted to supplement my income and have some fun doing it, so I decided to try finding a sugar daddy.įor the uninitiated, "sugaring" is a form of dating in which one partner financially supports the other, often in the form of cash or gifts. My day job offers me control over my schedule, since I don't work a traditional nine-to-five. I'd grown frustrated with dating men in my city - maybe I'd just had one too many Tinder dates end in mediocre conversation. Six months ago, I decided to become a sugar baby.
