Chloe Sevigny sold her hair to a wig maker when she was 17

Chloe Sevigny has revealed she shaved her head as a teenager and everyone loved it - but she’s not got any plans to do it again.

She said: “I shaved my head when I was 17 years old. I had really long hair down to my waist. I wanted a rebirth.”

“I sold it for $500 to a famous Broadway wigmaker. He had all these poor immigrant women sewing wigs strand by strand. Caucasian hair is rare in the wig trade, and my hair was blond and had never been dyed. I probably could have gotten a lot more money for it. I should have gotten $1,000.”

“My mother and my brother were so thrilled because my hair had always been so greasy, and I always wore it in my face. They said I never looked better than when I had a shaved head.”

“I would never do a buzz again, but I would like to do a Mia Farrow-Jean Seberg really short look for a movie. If you have to shave your head, you get an extra paycheck. But this time it would not be $500. It would be $500,000.”
