This Paper is to study the relation between morality and deviation known as “modeling” among young girls in order to present moral typology. The paper applied qualitative methodology. Data gathering process was through deep and semi-structured interviews with 32 models at mazandaran center of fighting with organized cyber crimes. Data analyses were accomplished through thematic analysis method under qualitative methodological movement. Three moral types were found out of research: Preference Hedonists, Instrumentalists, and self-alien habitual. The first moral types become apparent with three different views: Expressive, motive-centered consequentialism and pure art. Some of them find hedonism in being famous, some of them in being specific, some of them in being visible, some of them in advising other women, some group in making opportunity for women, some of them in lack of body management, and some in cat-walking as a pure art. But agents with instrumental morality observe modeling merely as an instrument to attach some specific goals such as escape from garrison-like family, or revenge from solid religious structure of family and patriarchy. The young girls who classified as self-alien habitual are not in search of any specific goal and hedonism. Formation of alienation in such a group, makes modeling as a habitual action for them.
