Rihanna sure knows how to keep us on our toes, doesn’t she?
Her hairstyles have gone from long, cropped, shaved sides, and curled, to her most recent hair foray: bright fiery red.
She debuted the new hair at the Rock in Rio Madrid concert yesterday, along with a seriously saucy Jeremy Scott Fall 2010 outfit. In my humble opinion: the color is hot! The cut, hmm…
What say you, Bombshells?

no offense but she looks like a Flintstones character
June 6, 2010 6:51 pm
Hmmm…and I usually love everything she does
June 6, 2010 6:55 pm
Rihanna please cover your crutch. Thanks, the management.
June 6, 2010 6:57 pm
I love the color but I absolutely HATE the cut
June 6, 2010 6:58 pm
Hmmmm….I’m honestly torn. I love the daring color but not the cut. This is not one of her finer moments. Better look next time.
June 6, 2010 7:00 pm
I really don’t see anything so original on rihanna. Black girls have been dying their hair red since I can remember. Rihanna is doing what she does best and that’s grabbing all elements of every woman and incorporating into her look. Kudos to her evolvement. Personally I love the color, on Rihanna, not so much.
June 6, 2010 7:01 pm
Cue Nene’s voice, “She looks a bit ghetto to me.”
June 6, 2010 7:23 pm
LMAO @ Famine..yeah theres nothing original about the look, but no ones claiming it is. I think the color suits her but yes the cut is hmmm.
June 6, 2010 7:48 pm
I Love It! The color is awesome and the cut makes a statement. And we all know RiRi is about making statements.
June 6, 2010 7:53 pm
the cut is reminiscent of this guy named adolf. fail!
June 6, 2010 7:54 pm
and the outfit from her waist up is fail squared.
June 6, 2010 8:37 pm
@asha LOL at “this guy named Adolph.”
June 6, 2010 8:46 pm
The color aside, the look is very Grace Jones- the color is not bad but not good, im still waiting for some originality but I don’t think The Machine will allow it in my lifetime!!!
June 6, 2010 9:04 pm
@Famine: no we need to cue Dewayne’s voice, “It’s dreadful!”
June 6, 2010 9:38 pm
lol @famine !!! I agree with everyone the color is hot but the cut is horrible!!! Honestly I’m tired of this girl, I wish she would sit down for a minute.
June 6, 2010 10:00 pm
HOT FREAKIN’ MESS! Not cute at all, back to the drawing board.
June 6, 2010 10:05 pm
Triple hmmmmmm!
June 6, 2010 10:05 pm
I don’t like the cut or the color on her. Definitely a hot mess.
June 6, 2010 10:06 pm
maybe its the cut???
June 6, 2010 10:31 pm
not so much. the whole thing is a mess
June 6, 2010 11:39 pm
This color, though a bit unoriginal is pretty Hot..the cut’s definitely a major Hmmm…it looks like the clippers broke in the middle of shaving her head
June 7, 2010 8:59 am
lmbao @ lauren. Yes! Pebbles Flintstone! That’s it!
Okay, I ain’t right. I like the colour, but not the shaved sides. I do like how Rihanna constantly switches it up. Keeps people on their toes. Guaranteed to find tons of women this summer dying their hair this colour…only for Rih Rih to change it on them again.
June 7, 2010 9:02 am
Pebbles color bambam’s cut !
June 7, 2010 9:56 am
I think the proper term comes from Andre Leon Talley: “Drektitude”
June 7, 2010 10:10 am
Don’t like! She looked so pretty with the blonde–I hope this one doesn’t stay long : /
June 7, 2010 10:32 am
i like the color..looks good on her..not so much the style..ok..not at all
June 7, 2010 11:33 am
*womp womp* i loved her with the blonde, not so much in red…and the outfit is very Madonna’s ‘blonde ambition’ tour…lol. kudos to her trying something new though…
June 7, 2010 11:42 am
I am usually a big fan of Rihanna’s fashion style and her hairstyles. However, in these pictures I’m just not feeling it. The color is okay, the cut is way too extreme. I know this is supposed to be a concert tour outfit but it’s just tacky and unflattering. Hopefully, her street style doesn’t change and her shaved head will grow back soon.
June 7, 2010 11:44 am
Nonsense.
June 7, 2010 12:06 pm
Foolishness.
June 7, 2010 1:28 pm
I just do not like unnatural hair colors on ANYONE…
June 7, 2010 1:52 pm
It’s good no one’s drinking the Kool-Aid…yep, pun intended.
June 7, 2010 2:11 pm
Can anyone say ‘yardie’?
June 7, 2010 2:22 pm
I LOVE SHE NEVER CEASE TO AMAZE ME CHANGE IS ALWAYS GOOD LOL THIS CHICK COULD ROCK A TRASH BAG AND IT WOULD BE DOPE!x_$

I love the new look! Her look is daring. She’s going for a goth look but making it fashionably sound. The “Goth look” is influenced by the Middle Ages and so is her hair cut. Her cut was a popular hair cut for men back in Middle Ages as well. I think she looks amazing!
June 8, 2010 1:29 pm
And why she gotta look “ghetto”? No offense but if people will do a background check white people were wearing their hair like that and even over the top extensions. But when a black person flaunt it then all of a sudden its “ghetto”. Can’t it just be creative instead???? Rihanna is expressing herself threw her clothes and hair as well as her music. It all fits perfectly.
June 8, 2010 4:49 pm
WHAT THE HELL WAS SHE THINKING!!!!???? the color is very pretty the cut looks like a mushroom or bowl on her head and im definitely not really feeling the outfit either…..DANG riri, we have the same nickname and i usually love what u do bt NOOOOOOOOOO
June 8, 2010 6:06 pm
I’ve never been a fan of red hair. This is no exception.
June 9, 2010 4:26 pm
Rihanna,i think that this color is too red for you.You really look better with the blonde….I dont know what you were thinking…
June 10, 2010 8:04 pm
This red is wayyy too much. Maybe if she mixed it in with her real hair color (brown), it would be better. And her stylist got clipper happy and shaved entirely too much hair off. I didn’t like the blonde at first either, but that grew on me. I don’t know about this though. The red & the awful shaving = BIG NO-NO!
June 10, 2010 11:58 pm
Ppl who dont know good fashion wouldnt agree with this color but i think she looks hot….. get with it, everyone cant pull this look off so dont hate
June 11, 2010 12:35 am
rihanna rihanna,rihanna….good girl gone bad or is it young woman turn stupid…did you forget that you are a youth ambassador to Barbados? do you really think that this is a look that someone that went school at combermere should dress….even if “they”told you that this is the look that works for you,put them in “their” place and let them know that you represent a country full of young people that follow and this is not what you want to look like….and if it is your decision to look this way,well they say don’t forget where you come from,then you should and give back the title of youth ambassador to Barbados…cause this is madness…..grow up…and to think you have not even come back to Barbados to give us a concert or nothing not even to come for crop over…girl what the fuck has gotten into you?are you mad?
June 11, 2010 2:12 pm
haircut and color are fabulous, rihanna is fabulous
June 11, 2010 2:44 pm
I like the color. The cut reminds me of the cut in GaGa’s latest video sported by the male dancers. It’s still edgy, but may look cuter standing up on her head a bit with some product in it. Kudos for sticking it out there, tho.

I love every hairstyle she had, every outfit 2 but dis………dis is taking it 2 far. i luv da color. ITZ JUST THE HAIRCUT……….ITZ UGLY. she dosent luk lyke herself and wat shez wearing. i have no comment >=S(mad face).
June 17, 2010 11:50 am
i would like this better if it was a darker red and if she had at least some hair in the back of her head.
June 19, 2010 1:54 pm
I love the hairstyle and the color. I think its original, everyone looks the same these days. Glad she’s a leader and not a follower.
June 20, 2010 2:33 pm
Love the punk sensibilities of the cut and fiery red hue of her new hair.
Glam kisses

July 9, 2010 5:56 pm
well I like everything she do she’s different and not boring like the rest .She stands out more then others riri loves people who dont like her look i bet this is gonna stay just because alot of people dont like it. if your a true fan you would be down with your artist. people need to stop tryna change people and need to worry about how they look in the morning
July 22, 2010 4:26 pm
jeez ppl wat r ur problems?! do u really think Rihanna gives 2…wat u think? if u do thn ur jst stupid nd deluded. she did this coz she wanted to do it-and she aint a false stupid effing ugly talentless crap whore like cheryl cole. Rihanna has actual talent nd proves tht she looks gr8 with little or no hair at all. good on her! keep rockin ur way! dnt listen to these losers hu waste their time hating on u. if u dnt like it, u kno where the door is. ive got a shaved back and sides look with the longer hair on top (like from Run This Town) and i LOVE it. do i care wat other ppl think of it? hell to the no! i think she is ace!!! and this look is edgy, clearly contraversial (<cant spell haha) and it works for her. YAY! =]
July 24, 2010 11:47 am

This is a no… the last couple cuts have been cool but this is a plain mess
August 10, 2010 4:41 pm
I think she is hot no matter what she does…I love the red hair and if I looked as good as she did, I would probably try to pull off this look myself. Most people are hating cause they wish they could look like her…
September 23, 2010 5:18 pm
i personally love the color its amazing BUT i HATE the hair cut i think its to butch for such a femanine female like rihanna so i would say that i dont like the new hair!
February 5, 2011 5:15 pm
That haircolor on HER, makes me puke. and that haircut, HAHA, it looks ugly! Rihanna should really take a look in the mirror, cuz it looks like she has pulled a lawn mower over half her head. ridiculous.
