We’ve gotten our fair share of Lupita Nyong’o in the editorial world with a number of stunning photoshoots from the beauty, but now we’re getting a little dosage of video action as well, with a look at her behind the scenes shoot with Essence Magazine.

The actress snagged a spot in Essence’s March issue with a beauty editorial, and of course, she had to talk about her signature skin and hair. In the video, Lupita reveals more about her decision to go for cropped hair, and her mother’s reaction:

“I didn’t always wear my hair short. In my adolescence, I always had long hair and it was relaxed. As of the age of 19, I just got really fed up with always going to the salon and it taking so much effort to look presentable before you leave the house. So, I just one day decided to cut it off, and I cut it all off! I was a skinhead and my mother was unamused.”
