Poodle Pretty
At the NRJ Music Awards in Cannes, Rihanna accented her shaved hair with a poodle mop on top. The 'do got horrible reviews but her makeup was flawless.
Red Rapunzel
The singer took the side braid trend to new lengths at the 2011 Met Gala. The hairstyle and matching lips really popped against her emerald fashion choice.
Lady in Red
At the 2010 AMAs, Rihanna toned down her bright red hair for a deep hue but added curls galore. The new shade perfectly matched her Elie Saab gown.
Fiercely Shaved
Rihanna goes back and forth with an undercut. Sometimes she hides it with longer locks, while other times she showcases it in an asymmetrical style.
Barbie Girl
They say blondes have more fun. And RiRi was happy to test out the theory. While she looks adorable in any hairstyle, we were happy to see her return to her roots.
Pixie Perfect
With her chiseled features, the singer is able to pull off shorter hairstyles. And when she adds in her signature red lip, the look is a major hit.
Happy Hands
Rihanna always switches up her nails for the red carpet. One of our all time favorites was her smiley—and sad-faced!—manicure.
Winter White
RiRi got beauty blogs buzzing with her gorgeous white eyeshadow at the 2010 Grammys. Of course, she also brought some major critique with that faux hawk!
Bold Blue
As if streaks and a Dolce & Gabbana tuxedo weren’t enough, the singer had to add an extra statement to her Met Gala look. Her trick? Electric eyeliner.
Vampire Chic
No, Rihanna wasn’t auditioning for True Blood. She was just playing with red eyeliner at the 2009 AMAs. Luckily, her Marchesa dress was such a showstopper that not everyone noticed the scary eye makeup.
