Gaisang Noge, Slee Ndlovu and more rocking bald heads and short hair
We're used to seeing good hair days defined by big afros, sleek installs, and perfectly styled edges, but sometimes, a good hair day can mean having little to no hair at all.
There's something powerful about baring it all, when you go bald or rock a short cut, you fall in love with your face all over again. The cheekbones, the jawline, the raw beauty that hair can sometimes hide steps into the spotlight.
Whether you're starting afresh, shedding something old, or just switching it up for the fun of it, bald heads and short cuts bring their own kind of glam.
Here are a few celebs showing us just how beautiful less can be.
Celebs rocking bald heads
1. Gaisang Noge in bald glam
Her bald head elevates the entire aesthetic, drawing full attention to her glowing skin and expressive eyes.
Her glossy lips and softly blended eye shadow are complemented by orchid-like flowers in the last slide of the Instagram post below, adorning her ears and giving a natural, high-fashion elegance.
The absence of hair amplifies her bone structure and allows every detail, from the floral accessories to the sculptural neckline of her outfit, to take center stage.
