The pop icon and fashion mogul recently sparked a social media frenzy with a surprising revelation- her stunning blonde pixie cut is, in fact, her real hair!
During an outing in Santa Monica on Friday (March 22), Rihanna, renowned for her constantly changing style and daring fashion choices, debuted the stylish blonde pixie cut.
The founder of Fenty Beauty revealed her new appearance roughly three weeks after she was spotted showing off her long, dark hair while giving her first full concert in nearly eight years at an Indian private wedding.
Rihanna’s Fenty Hair announcement also featured the same flippy blonde pixie.
Amidst the speculation, Fenty’s Hair stepped in to set the record straight, sharing a video of Rihanna’s wash day routine that proved her pretty pixie with a wolfish twist was not a wig.
In a promotional video, Rihanna dons a classic tan trench coat, allowing her newly dyed tawny blonde hair to take center stage. Her shaggy pixie cut, with a wolf-cut twist and a hint of mullet, is a unique blend of styles that only she could pull off.
Though the longer, flipped-out back of the haircut modernizes the style and takes it into fun and flirtatious territory, it still pays homage to classic pixies like Mia Farrow’s.
Fans and fashion critics praised the bold new look, but many assumed it was just another expertly styled wig. However, the truth behind her new hairstyle soon emerged, sending her fanbase into a frenzy.
Yusef Williams, Rihanna’s hairstylist, shared a behind-the-scenes video that led to the revelation. In the video, Williams can be seen washing Rihanna’s natural hair, proving that the edgy blonde cut is, in fact, entirely her own.
This isn’t the first time Rihanna has made headlines with her hair. Over the years, she has sported various looks, from fiery red curls to sleek, jet-black bobs. Each style has been met with enthusiasm and admiration, showcasing her versatility and daring style.
