Sheena Halili Donates Her Hair To A Bald Cancer Patient Undergoing Chemotherapy

SHEENA HALILI agreed to have her long tresses cut for her role as Mayang in “Indio”. “Magpapanggap kasi akong lalaki rito kaya kailangang iklian ang buhok ko,” she says. “Mayang is a woman who’s courageous and willing to defy the conventions of a male-dominated society.”

She’s paired with Dominic Roco in the show. “Para mapasok namin ang kuta ng aming mga kalaban, kinailangang magkunwa akong lalaki dahil kung babae ko, baka malapastangan lang ako agad,” she adds.

She’s happy to be part of a historical epicserye like “Indio”. “Talagang bawat episode nito, makikita mong ginagastusan ng GMA nang husto.”

Sheena is donating her cut hair to a cancer patient who has lost hair due to chemotherapy. “Gagawin daw wig para magamit naman ng pasyente,” she says. “At least, may makabuluhang gamit pa rin para sa naputol kong buhok.”
