At the age of 17, before her film career, Krystal Steal worked as a stripper by using a fake I.D. Steal made her film debut in 2001. She has since performed in many adult films and posed for a number of adult magazines such as Hustler.  She has worked under exclusive contract first for Pleasure Productions and later in 2003 for ClubJenna. Krystal was the first actress to sign a contract with ClubJenna; when her contract expired in December 2005, even though the company wanted to renew it, Steal refused. Krystal Steal has appeared in nearly 100 films and with some of the best-known performers in the industry. In September 2007, Steal announced she had signed with Adult Talent Managers after a nearly year-long hiatus from the industry. Her early entry on the scene earned her the Fan’s Choice Best New Starlet award in 2004.
