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.

  • BrwnSantiLove March 18, 2011 at 9:39 pm

    Does make her looks older…she is cute either way

  • lala March 17, 2011 at 11:54 am

    she looks so beautiful & appropiately dressed…

  • La March 17, 2011 at 10:10 am

    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!

  • ShondaNicole March 16, 2011 at 11:03 pm

    She is too cute! Love the look. http://www.lashondanicole.blogspot.com

  • Fashionedbygod33 March 16, 2011 at 9:35 pm

    Beautiful mom and daughter. I love fedoras. I think I like it curlier a bit better, but she’s a doll nonetheless and talented.

  • nk March 16, 2011 at 8:48 pm

    She’s a very beautiful girl but I like the curls better.

  • Thereze March 16, 2011 at 8:16 pm

    moms beautiful! see where yara gets her looks from.

  • connie March 16, 2011 at 6:46 pm

    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!

  • Tamika March 16, 2011 at 3:58 pm

    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.

  • Leo March 16, 2011 at 3:25 pm

    I prefer their hair curled, but I have to admit that they look just as beautiful with their hair straightened.

  • NikNak March 16, 2011 at 2:58 pm

    Her mom has some beautiful skin. She comes from very attractive people and seems very down-to-earth. I wish her the best.

  • GUYANESE CHIC March 16, 2011 at 2:23 pm

    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.

  • Amber March 16, 2011 at 2:07 pm

    They’re beautiful, but i think they lost something with it straight, especially Yara. To me, now she just looks “conformed” imo.

    • Leo March 16, 2011 at 3:31 pm

      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.

  • Toya March 16, 2011 at 2:02 pm

    OMG she is a DOLL!!! Her parents most be extremely PROUD of her accomplishments! Just so talented and beautiful!! Both children..GOD is GOOD!

  • Teri March 16, 2011 at 1:37 pm

    Mommy and daughter are beautiful! I wish her and her brother much success.

  • Beautee March 16, 2011 at 1:33 pm

    She is so pretty, I just flat ironed my 11 year old daughters hair for the 1st time and she loves it straight.

  • db March 16, 2011 at 1:15 pm

    Like her hair straight or pressed also, mommy is so pretty, never saw her before…that I can think of at least.

  • EVELINA RAE March 16, 2011 at 1:13 pm

    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.

    • GUYANESE CHIC March 16, 2011 at 2:24 pm

      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.

      • Tiger Blood March 16, 2011 at 4:06 pm

        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.

  • Me 2 March 16, 2011 at 1:05 pm

    YES!! I Love it!! Yara and her mom look gorgeous!! I like their hair in both states cury and straight. Too Cute :)

  • Bookworm J March 16, 2011 at 1:03 pm

    She is beautiful! Looks just like her mom!

  • Tiana March 16, 2011 at 1:01 pm

    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.

    • YoungBlackStarz March 16, 2011 at 1:10 pm

      Yes! Yara was the flower girl in Nas and Kelis’ wedding.

      • Tiana March 16, 2011 at 1:24 pm

        Oh, thanks. I didn’t know until recently. Do you know where I can see pics?

        • Yuria March 16, 2011 at 1:43 pm

          Here is a link to some pictures from Nas and Kelis wedding.

          • Tiger Blood March 16, 2011 at 1:48 pm

            You really took us back in day with those pics! I had a huge crush on Nas.

          • Tiana March 16, 2011 at 7:19 pm

            Thank you. I’ve never seen these.

      • Ashlyn August 10, 2012 at 10:56 pm

        She has always been gorgeous with a head full of hair!

  • Tiger Blood March 16, 2011 at 12:55 pm

    Your hair look really nice pressed or not pressed. You is a cutie for sure…future heartbreaker alert.

  • Tiger Blood March 16, 2011 at 12:54 pm

    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!
