While the ‘Indecent Proposal’ Demi Moore has tried a variety of styles over the years, these days she does ‘as little as possible’ with her locks

Hollywood star Demi Moore famously shaved her head to play the lead role in 1997’s ‘G.I. Jane’ but she’d now be “hard-pressed” to alter her trademark waist-length tresses again because she has nothing to “prove”. “I think now that I’m older, I also know, I don’t have anything to prove. So if they really need my hair different, they can give me a wig,” she said, reports aceshowbiz.com.

She added: “It’s also not as clear how it would grow back!” While the “Indecent Proposal” actress has tried a variety of styles over the years, these days she does “as little as possible” with her locks and finds it “stressful” when people even touch her hair.

She added to People: “I’ve done everything to my hair. I’ve shaved it. I’ve dyed it. I’ve had a bob. When I’m not working, I try to do as little to it as possible.” “It’s stressful even having someone touch it. If I don’t have anywhere to go, I don’t put heat on it — I just try to let it do its own thing,” Moore continued.

She went on stating: “And I don’t wash it too often.” Moore opts for “dustings” to keep her hair healthy when it comes to having them cut. She said, “I get regular tiny trims.

The rest comes from the inside out. You have to eat well, all those things.”

The actress vowed to keep her hair long to defy stereotypes.

She said, “I remember hearing someone say that when women get older, they shouldn’t have long hair. And something about that stuck with me.” “Like who says? It made me feel like, well, if it can grow and it’s not unhealthy, then why shouldn’t we?” Moore shared.

“I’m not comfortable with rules that don’t seem to have any real meaning or justification.”

Moore signed with the Elite Modeling Agency, then enrolled in drama classes after being inspired by her next-door neighbour, 17-year-old German actress Nastassja Kinski. In August 1979, at age 16, Moore met musician Freddy Moore who was married and at the time leader of the band Boy, at the Los Angeles nightclub The Troubadour.

They lived in an apartment in West Hollywood. Moore co-wrote three songs with Freddy Moore and appeared in the music video for their selection “It’s Not a Rumor,” performed by his band, The Nu Kats. She continues to receive royalty checks from her songwriting work (1980 — 81) Moore also sang in the films One Crazy Summer and Bobby.

Moore made her film debut with a brief role in the 1981 teen drama Choices, directed by Silvio Narizzano. Her second film feature was the 3-D sci-fi horror film Parasite (1982), for which director Charles Band had instructed casting director Johanna Ray to “find me the next Karen Allen.”

Moore’s film career took off in 1984 following her appearance in the Blame It on Rio.
