Rihanna has never been one to shy away from dramatic hair styles, changing from long and wavy to short and sexy in a matter of months. She also isn’t afraid to play with colour, going from bright blonde, to black, to red.
Session stylist and Remington Ambassador, Chris Appleton, who has shot with Vogue, Marie Claire and Grazia and worked on the likes of Tali Lennox, Pixie Geldof and Daphne Guinness, says, ‘Rihanna really suits this short crop, it looks so fresh on her and really sophisticated.
Chris added, ‘Hair remains the easiest way to change your appearance and ramp up the wow factor which Rihanna’s really done, and she’ll be able to wear wigs over this style whenever she wants to change it again.’
Award-winning stylist and Shu Uemura Ambassador, Ken Picton, commented, ‘This dramatic look is so easy to style and suits oval face shapes and small features – if you have a round face have lots of angles in your cut and a pointy fringe shaping into points over the ears. A fringe will shorten a long face. It can be worn sleek or matte – matte textured hair is a key look for this season so muss it up with Shu Uemura Volume Maker or a wax.’
