Yvonne Jegede shaves off all her hair for a movie role.
Jegede took to her Instagram account on Sunday to share the transformation, explaining that the decision was necessary to fully embody the character.
She posted on IG her new look with a caption “ I love my job too much not to take risks… I see myself as a tool to convey the appropriate message , if the script deserves it, I will do whatever needs to be done to give the story life !!
“I have always believed that to tell a story authentically, you must be willing to give everything to the role, even if it means stepping out of your comfort zone.
She added, “Cutting my hair wasn’t just about changing my appearance; it was about shedding my comfort and embracing a new side of myself for the sake of the story. I’ve always believed that as an actor, you have to be ready to push boundaries, and this role is definitely doing that for me.
“This decision also reflects my dedication to my craft. I take acting seriously, and I believe in fully immersing myself in every role I take on.
“This belief is what guided my decision to cut my hair for my ongoing movie, “AJA. ” It wasn’t an easy decision, but for me, it was necessary to fully embody the character I’ve been entrusted to bring to life,” she wrote.
She also revealed that apart from the hair cut she is also learning how to speak Yoruba language.
