9 year old Olivia channels the character of Eleven from the Stranger Things TV show
With the hype and overwhelming admiration for the recent Netflix supernatural television mini-series; Stranger Things, you knew that sooner than later, life would somehow find it’s way to imitating art, and we think we’ve found a contender who has nailed that old adage to a T.
Olivia a 9 year old girl who lives in Los Angeles and is at an age where she is being very clear about who she is and how she wants to look. So when she decided to shave her head before going back to school, her parents were more than supportive of their daughters choice. With this bold move came the explanation and justification that the length of your hair doesn’t change who you are, that no matter it’s size, you can still be confident, powerful and treat people with kindness.
Some of these traits were evident in the character of ‘Eleven’, the mysterious shaved-head girl with the tel-kinetic powers who stole the show in Stranger Things. Though her family wouldn’t let her actually watch the hit Netflix series (other than a short clip on YouTube), Olivia and her mom Ozma had some fun recreating the look of ‘Eleven’, from the character’s costume to some fun poses that look like they came right off the set of the show itself.
