Cara Delevingne on Shaving Her Head: 'You Don't Need Hair To Be Beautiful'

At first hesitant, Cara Delevingne is now very happy she shaved her head for her upcoming role in Life in a Year.

“It’s nice to not have to maintain your hair. We all get attachment to hair but it’s just hair. It grows back,” the 24-year-old actress expressed while promoting her latest film Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets.

“I feel like I definitely was more aware that you could pretty much hide behind your hair, but it was really liberating to realize that you don’t need hair to be beautiful and to feel like a woman,” Cara concluded.
