YARA SHAHIDI TRIES A NEW STYLE!
Child actress Yara Shahidi, who celebrated her 11th birthday last month, has a new temporary look! She and her mother, model/actress Keri Shahidi, both decided to try a new look for some future auditions and they pressed their hair! It is only Yara’s second time having her hair pressed. What do you think? She’s definitely looking more grown up! See more photos of Yara’s new hair style below.
In other news, Yara and her younger brother Sayeed Shahidi have been keeping very busy! They both recently did print work for Crewcuts as well as spots for KFC, and McDonalds.

OMG She looks so different! I remember how adorably cute she was in “Imagine That” Look at her in these pics. she kind of looks like Chanel Iman the victoria’s secret model.
Both look like Keri’s dad! Great looking family and very nice people in “real” life. I look up to Keri’s father so much and he is so proud of all his family.
I’d never seen her mother before and man is she beautiful! I prefer little Yara w her curls, but really she can’t miss. She can pull off any look.
Does make her looks older…she is cute either way
she looks so beautiful & appropiately dressed…
Beautiful ladies! Great skin! Just gorgeous! I too love her hair in either state! Really feeling the straight. It’s amazing how long her hair is once it’s blown out!
She is too cute! Love the look. http://www.lashondanicole.blogspot.com

such a beautiful family. and i love how they work together successfully as a family. everytime a i see her she reminds me of my nice , same jawline, smile and face shape. gorgeous!! and i loved imagine that.
Beautiful mom and daughter. I love fedoras. I think I like it curlier a bit better, but she’s a doll nonetheless and talented.
She’s a very beautiful girl but I like the curls better.
moms beautiful! see where yara gets her looks from.
YES I LOVE HER HAIR CURLY, BUT HER PRESSED HAIR LOOKS BEAUTIFUL TOO! IT JUST GOES TO SHOW YOU THAT OUR NATURAL KINKY HAIR IS BEAUTIFUL AND IT GROWS! HER MOTHER IS GORGEOUS! I WOULD LOVE TO LOOK LIKE HER WHEN I GET OLDER. SHE LOOKS GREAT!
I love Yara’s look either way, but I prefer Keri’s hair curly. I think she is so beautiful, and stands out from the masses with her crown of curls.
I prefer their hair curled, but I have to admit that they look just as beautiful with their hair straightened.
Her mom has some beautiful skin. She comes from very attractive people and seems very down-to-earth. I wish her the best.
i love yara i think she is so adorable and talented. i always wnted to see her hair str8 and she looks georgeous. MOM TOO!! she looks so grown and is growing up so fast. she was 6 when she flimed imagine that… i wish her and her family the best in the careers.
They’re beautiful, but i think they lost something with it straight, especially Yara. To me, now she just looks “conformed” imo.
Yea, I know what you mean. At least it’s a press and not a relaxer. Water + A good deep conditioning, and the curls are back in town.
OMG she is a DOLL!!! Her parents most be extremely PROUD of her accomplishments! Just so talented and beautiful!! Both children..GOD is GOOD!
Mommy and daughter are beautiful! I wish her and her brother much success.
She is so pretty, I just flat ironed my 11 year old daughters hair for the 1st time and she loves it straight.
Like her hair straight or pressed also, mommy is so pretty, never saw her before…that I can think of at least.
Keri and Yara are beautiful. Little Sayeed is very cute too.
I like their hair, but they can keep it any way cause it looks great both ways.
I wonder what Mr. Shahidi looks like cause both kids are all Keri.
he is very handsome. the kids take after the mom but he is a good looking guy. he has a website. http://www.asfinshahidi.com he is a professional photograher.
If that is the guy that I was looking at, then yes, he is good looking too. But your link only shows a baby pic of him. However, I googled him up, just bc I were curious.
YES!! I Love it!! Yara and her mom look gorgeous!! I like their hair in both states cury and straight. Too Cute
She is beautiful! Looks just like her mom!
Cute pics. On another note, I had no idea they were related to the rapper Nas. That makes them and little Knight cousins. Too cute.
Yes! Yara was the flower girl in Nas and Kelis’ wedding.
Oh, thanks. I didn’t know until recently. Do you know where I can see pics?
Here is a link to some pictures from Nas and Kelis wedding.

You really took us back in day with those pics! I had a huge crush on Nas.
Thank you. I’ve never seen these.
She has always been gorgeous with a head full of hair!
Your hair look really nice pressed or not pressed. You is a cutie for sure…future heartbreaker alert.
OMG! I am in love with this little girl. She can act is so talented and pretty. She will go far in the “business” as long as she stays focus. Her brother is good too, on his tv show with Blair Underwood. Happy Birthday Yara Shahidi!
