Rihanna has always been known for making bold statements- whether it’s on the stage or off. She’s a trend-setter who loves controversy. That’s why it’s no surprise that the young musical beauty changes her hairstyles very regularly. Whether it’s a short sleek cut or long red wavy tresses, Rihanna’s hairstyle is a true statement of who she is – a strong woman who loves to make a statement and express herself regardless of people’s reactions.
She loves to flaunt her style through her clothing and hair choices. With her changing hairstyles and now with her new partially shaved head with long black tresses, it’s no surprise! Rihanna continues to turn heads wherever she goes.
Rihanna’s move from her bright red weave to her newest jet-black lengthy locks coupled with the side of her head being shaved is reminiscent of R&B singer Cassie who set the half shaved head trend years ago. But the question remains, does Rihanna wear it better than Cassie?
Ultimately I would say that Cassie is the real trend-setter, because she pushed the button for glam girls everywhere! Known for her sultry elegance, the young singer had jaws dropping when she first showcased her shaved do. The hairstyle added fierceness to her natural elegant style that many of her fans had never witnessed on her before. She always had sleek tresses that cascaded over her shoulders. This added to her natural beauty. The shaved head look created an edge – a toughness, a side that we are not used to associating with Cassie. However, although she did partially shave her head, she still chose to keep her long smooth-as-silk tresses, which provided a beautiful balance to her new look.
