Rihanna Confesses On Why She Cut Her Hair

Rihannasaid she struggled with her label  Def Jam  on the issue of not wanting to wear a weave like some other famous pop stars.

“I felt like the whole world had long, curly, flowy blonde hair. Ciara, Beyonce, Mariah, Christina Milian,”said Rihanna. Everybody wanted to be like everybody else. So I cut my hair and they (Def Jam) made me put my long hair back in (as extensions).”

“The second time, I didn’t have any discussions, nothing. I just cut it, I dyed it black, I went into the studio making music my way. I found myself all at once. I like things strong, edgy, a little to the left. I don’t like things that are expected - nothing cliched.”

 

Rihanna Rihanna, lets keep it real, you still wear extensions every now and then.  I do feel her on not wanting to look like all of those others chicks. I remember those days when Beyonce, Ciara, Christina Milian, JLo and Rihanna were all rocking the same long goldish weave. So, it makes sense wanting to distance yourself.

  • I liked her hair after the first cut when it still reached the bottom of her face. But after the second cut, her hair looked way too boyish. She's a gorgeous girl, but she should fix up her hair...it doesn't have to be like everyone else's but it...
