How Saka's hair refuse to grow back

The actor said at the time, he had found it hard to accept his dad’s words about also turning bald since he had a full-on afro.

However, Saka’s fate will change when he got into university and snagged a role to perform in the stage play Raisin in The Sun. According to the actor, his role required getting a bald cut, and he had to let go of his afro.

Saka’s dreaded fear sprung to life after his hair refused to grow back properly, and he started suffering from a receding hairline.

He wrote:

“However, after the performance, the hair refused to grow again, instead it started to recede. By the time I got to my final year, I realized that TRULY it has reached my turn. When my father saw me at one of our family meetings, he stared at me with a very wide smile like he was saying to me "IT HAS FINALLY REACHED YOUR TURN SON," and that voice added his own.”

To complete his narration, the actor shared a photo of his much younger self when he had an afro and others that detailed his bald hair journey.
