<p>Ryza Cenon shared that shaving off her hair for her upcoming movie <em>Lilim</em> was her personal choice.</p><p>In an interview with Bianca Gonzalez for the TFC show <em>BRGY</em>, the actress pointed out: &quot;Hindi naman nire-require ng production so ako po &#x27;yung nag-insist na magpapakalbo ako.&quot;</p><p>Ryza relayed that she decided to go bald as she thought that it would be more helpful for the production than having to wear prosthetics.</p><p>&quot;Nabasa ko na [&#x27;yung script] and nakita ko rin sa look test namin &#x27;yung bald cap na prosthetics, parang mas feeling ko mas makakatulong if totoong kalbo na lang,&quot; she said.</p><p>When asked if she informed her son Night before she shaved her head, Ryza relayed: &quot;Nagpaalam din po ako sa kanya na sinabi ko sa kanya na, &#x27;Magpapakalbo si mommy katulad ng hair mo pero mas less hair ako, &#x27;yung walang hair talaga.&#x27; Tapos ang sabi lang niya, &#x27;Okay go.&#x27;&quot;</p><div><iframe width="1899" height="720" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/T_kXrcKu8KA" title="" Ryza="" Cenon="" Shares="" How="" Being="" a="" Mom="" Has="" Made="" Her="" Even="" Braver="" July="" BRGY="" S3="" Ep="" frameBorder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div><p>Ryza earned praises from people with alopecia and with cancer because of her confidence to shave off her hair. The actress feels grateful to play a role in championing them.</p><p>&quot;Hindi ko in-expect talaga na may ganun, na ganun &#x27;yung impact nung pagpapakalbo ko dahil isa lang naman &#x27;yung purpose ko dahil sa role. Hindi ko naman akalain na another role pa pala akong gagampanan na ire-represent at silang lahat &#x27;yun so kaya nakakatuwa,&quot; she said.</p><p>She pointed out that what defines the person is not one&#x27;s physical appearance. &quot;Ang importante kung ano &#x27;yung nasa puso mo. Hindi naman siya nagde-define na kung kalbo ka loser ka na or nakakatawa ka... No, hindi iyon &#x27;yun. For me &#x27;yung kalooban mo &#x27;yung nagde-define sa &#x27;yo.&quot;</p><p>The actress relayed that she has been receiving messages from alopecia patients and cancer warriors after she revealed her bald look.</p><iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-4" src="https://www.instagram.com/p/C8x-xxJyZIq/embed/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=540&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fent-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A4%2C%22os%22%3A758381%2C%22ls%22%3A33533%2C%22le%22%3A33786%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="588" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-4" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px 0px 12px;min-width:326px;padding:0px"></iframe><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><p>&quot;Isa lang po &#x27;yung main message nila na ngayon na parang lumakas &#x27;yung loob nila na tanggalin [&#x27;yung wig], na hindi na lang mag-wig o itago siya kasi kung nakaya ko raw, kaya rin nila,&quot; she hihglighted.</p><p>In the same interview, Ryza discussed her journey as a mother.
