The new ‘do highlights Keke’s gorgeous features and she looks incredible! But she has been planning to shave her head for sometime now. “Yes!” she told ESSENCE at last year’s Black Women In Hollywood red carpet. At the time, she was wearing a half-shaven hairstyle, and she was asked about going fully bald. “I can definitely feel that coming on soon.” “I loved the pixie, but I wanted to go one step further with the freedom I felt from cutting off my hair. Being an entertainer we’re forced to [wear our hair in different ways] I just felt so relieved to make a choice to do something that I wanted to do on my own.” And her fans seem to love it:

Welcome to the bald head gang yasss
