Chiwetel Ejiofor: Cropped Afro With Neat Beard

4.0 4 Star

Chiwetel Ejiofor’s cropped Afro with neat beard is a great, classic style for a serious actor who wants to look polished on the red carpet without too much effort.

 

MFH says

Chiwetel Ejiofor’s cropped Afro with neat beard really flatters his round face shape. But then again, MFH thinks he could go for any Afro hairstyle and look amazing.

Not sure who he is? While he’s a big name in acting circles, he’s not one for the ‘celebrity circus’ that comes with it.

But as well as being a renowned theatre actor – having done now-legendary runs in Othello and in Romeo and Juliet – he was also Oscar nominated for his role in 12 Years a Slave, starred as a drag queen, Lola, in Kinky Boots and even voiced a character in the Lion King remake.

Currently he’s on the big screen as baddy Baron Mordo in Marvel’s latest Dr Strange film.

With a career that varied, it’s no surprise he wants to keep his IRL hairstyle simple and relatively fuss-free.
