Actors and actresses often do amazing things in order to get into character. Including this applies to experiments on appearance.
For many actresses, parting with their hair is generally like death. But the participants of this top were not afraid to shave their heads to perpetuate themselves in unusual images. And they didn’t fail.
Any young lady needs to have remarkable courage in order to decide to change her image. Even the smallest changes are sometimes shocking. And what can we say about the total shaving of hair. Even when it’s done for the sake of art.
We must pay tribute to the girls, which will be discussed further, as they put masterpiece films and their embodiment on the screen above the worries about their own appearance. And the hair will eventually grow back.
10 Cynthia Nixon
A good half of the audience knows the beautiful Cynthia Nixon exclusively from the TV series Sex and the City. It’s hard to imagine this actress without her luxurious red hair like a lion’s mane.
But for the role in the Broadway production, where Cynthia will play a woman with cancer, she is ready not to take such steps. Such steps on the part of the actors always cause devotion and greater respect from the audience, because sincerity in the embodiment of the character on the screen is very important.
9. Bai Lin
American actress of Chinese origin Bai Ling is very well remembered by many fans of the films “Taxi”. The thing is that there she played a spectacular and seductive criminal who insidiously tortured Emilien with lovemaking in order to beat the whole truth out of him.
From a luxurious hairstyle had to be abandoned in favor of a role in the film “The King and I.” After his role in Taxi, it is difficult to perceive Bai Ling without hair.
8. Natalie Portman
Natalie Portman is one of the most beautiful actresses of our time. The reason for this is not only a memorable appearance, but also an incredible fortitude, coupled with talent.
In different roles, the audience had a chance to see her, but each time Natalie was surprisingly charming and pretty.
But, even having lost her hair for the sake of the character Evie from the movie “V for Vendetta”, Natalie did not look worse. On the contrary, she showed herself with such a hairstyle very confidently at the Cannes Film Festival.
7. Kristen Stewart
Not the most unambiguous actress of our time. Although the role of Bella Swan from the Twilight saga made her famous, the girl’s talent began to shine in completely different works.
In the collection of Bella’s roles, there is not only a girl caressed by the love of a vampire and a werewolf, but also a mechanical engineer Nora, who is forced to earn money on an underwater oil installation. Such a woman cannot have a luxurious mop of hair, and therefore the actress had to shave it off.
6. Cara Delevingne
Another extraordinary personality of this top. Kara is a big fan of experimenting with both her looks and her hair. Fortunately, she had something to experiment with.
But here comes 2018, and a film with Kara’s participation, called “Life in a Year”, should appear on the screens. Miss Delevingne plays a 17 year old girl with cancer. For the sake of the authenticity of the image, the hair was shaved without regret.
5. Anne Hathaway
The plot of the great novel “Les Misérables” by the French writer Victor Hugo could not fail to find a response in the hearts of readers and also could not fail to receive a second birth in the film adaptation.
Many have taken on this challenge. One of the most famous film adaptations appeared in 2012, in which many famous actors took part, including Anne Hathaway.
For the role of Fantine, the actress had to sacrifice her beautiful hair. Ann agreed, although it was not easy for her to do so. Cutting her hair was a hard blow for her, the acceptance of which required some time from the actress.
4. Charlize Theron
Charlize Theron, despite her stunning appearance, is never afraid to change images or look ugly on the screen. For the sake of the role, she can not only shave off her hair, but also get fat and look like a terrible ugly woman.
Pretty Charlize does not care. Indeed, deep down, she is convinced that the true glow and talent are more important than appearance.
For the role of Furiosa from Mad Max, the actress not only shaved off her beautiful hair, but was also not afraid to get dirty in the mud.
3. Cate Blanchett
In the film Paradise, Australian actress Cate Blanchett was supposed to play a convicted terrorist, and therefore there could be no talk of any magnificent and luxurious strands.
Subsequently, Kate said that she really liked walking with such a “hairstyle”, so her head was very successfully blown by a cold breeze. Well, you can find positives in everything.
True, the picture of how Kate could exchange her beautiful hair after the role of an elf from The Lord of the Rings for a shaved “hedgehog” of the film Paradise still does not fit in the minds of many viewers.
Now the actress is overgrown again and does not seem to be planning to repeat the experience with very short hair.
2. Demmy Moor
At the end of the last century, Demi Moore heroically took on the role of the first actress who was not afraid to shave her luxurious dark hair for the sake of total immersion in the character.
Yes, the step is not easy, from which side you look. Demi decides to pass such a test for the sake of a large-scale film project directed by Ridley Scott’s G.I. Jane.
The film is far from ordinary, which many sit down to watch in the company of children for popcorn. There will be something to think about here. And the main character performed by Demi Moore will only add doom.
1. Sigourney Weaver
In 1992, the continuation of the legendary series of films about a space alien was released, which is almost impossible to survive when meeting with it. It’s about Alien 3. These legendary films have two bright superstars: Alien himself and Ellen Ripley herself, performed by the unsurpassed Sigourney Weaver.
The actress also had to part with most of her hair for the third part of the picture. But, unlike other members of the top, Sigourney’s hair grew quite quickly during the filming. Therefore, in order not to shave them repeatedly, a wig was specially designed for the character of Ellen Ripley.
