Her Unique Look
Miller is known for her distinctive shaved head. She once shared why she chose this look. She used to have long hair and felt like she was hiding behind it. One day, she decided to cut it all off.
She wanted to start fresh and grow an afro. When her barber cut her hair, she loved how her skull looked. She never went back to long hair. This choice actually helped her get more diverse acting roles. She thought it might limit her, but it did the opposite. She explained that it came from loving herself and not needing to hide.
