The girl next doorAt the time of Pon De Replay, in 2005, Rihanna had just turned 17 and her still immature style fully reflected her age: baggy jeans, very short shirts, hair worn simply straight or with light waves. In short, the early Rihanna was a girl like many others.
The transformations and the hair crazeAlong with the success came the desire to experiment, and the young Barbadian began to reinvent herself on the occasion of each new single. The protagonists of the changes were almost always the hair, for which Rihanna has a real obsession: it seems that the young woman has come to spend as much as $ 20,000 a week for her hair, entrusted to the care of the hair stylist of celebrities Ursula Stephen.
RedRed has long been one of the singer's favorite colors: from cherry to fiery shades, from casual hairstyles to super-voluminous perm, Rihanna has begun to bring out the grit and show her nature as a rebelle fleur (an expression that is also tattooed on the neck) with these shades of hair.

It does discuss the dark regrowth, too obvious to be a simple oversight, but Rihanna manages to make up for her dubious choice with a retro crop at the Brit Awards.
Shaved on the templeOne of Miss Fenty's most daring looks is the one she wore in April, with a partially shaved temple, a daring fashion trend among celebrities. Rihanna's skill was to readjust such an extreme cut to situations that required a more classic hairstyle instead. Just look at her photos on the red carpet of the Time 100 Gala, where she played down the side short with a frame of soft waves, or those of the Met Ball, where she presented herself with a crop as unusual as it is elegant and that somehow remains the her favorite hairstyle.
RastafariFor her American Idol stage performance, Rihanna once again amazed fans by showing up with long dreadlocks gathered into a high ponytail. But in reality there is no surprise, considering that Rihanna grew up listening to reggae music.
