No, I dont like. At first glance its cute but itf you start looking at it a few minutes too long it looks all wrong. Put the tracks back in Riri.

Other than that, shes flawless.

i think it is cute on her

I don’t like it. I think her hair was the perfect cut in the “Got Milk?” she did recently.

Rihanna is supposed to be fashion forward, so it’s kind of disappointing that she’s now joined the looooooooong list of people to rip off Kelis’ hair from last year.

I like it. It matches her personality and unique style. You can tell that she just took whatever hair style she had and combed it to the front, but it’s works for her.

I like it alot. Although she look a little bit like Mya (am I looking too hard here?), it’s really nice on her. I’m sooooo glad she’s growing into her own and bucking against the image of what black women should look like!

didn’t kelis have hair like that (or similar) at one point? it’s cute.

Love Love Love. I love the throwback to Linda Evangilsta. I love the punkness. And more importantly, I love that she is weave free!

Love it! I rocked the hell out of a cut like that several years ago before I got married and my hubby wanted me to grow my hair out! Men!!! *smile*

not feeling it.. put the tracks back in or the wig back on.

I think it has potential, but isn’t quite there. She needs to go to a ghetto beauty salon and let them hook up the shorter sections. I saw it from the back and it looked pretty bad.

okay. i like what they are trying to do, but they need to clean it up a little. that little piece hanging over her right ear is not cute and they need to lay it down with an iron and some spray at the top towards the back. it looks messy. just clean it up some. its a good look for her.
SAY WHAT :0 on January 31, 2008 at 3:56 pm #

super cute!!!

i know she got tired of the Bob that everyone took.
eartha on January 31, 2008 at 3:59 pm #

it’s a cute cut, but she’s a swagger jacker..kelis had that look first. so did ms. mary. mary rocked a bob before rihanna too! i’m just not for everyone acting like she’s doing something new and fresh…fashion trends including hair styles are cyclical..maybe she’s the 1st for her age group.

she shouldn’t sing anyway; become a model rihanna…that’s all you really do well anyway…

She is getting just too comfortable cutting all her hair off. It’s cute though. She has the face for it.
GetErica on January 31, 2008 at 5:29 pm #

she pulls it off quite well.
Yekinae on January 31, 2008 at 5:37 pm #

I looooooves it! She so cute she could put a mop on her head and look fierce!!!
Daya Bee* on January 31, 2008 at 6:10 pm #

Um… im starting to see alot of Kelis in this chick recently. She shoulda stuck to her lil bob that she had when she was shopping with Chris Brown
cocoeyez on January 31, 2008 at 6:28 pm #

Yeah no! I dont like it because it’s too messy for me. Even though Kelis wore the same cut, her’s was more detailed. As a person who rocks a short cut…I believe that if you’re gonna go short like this…it needs to be detailed.
Dablkberry on January 31, 2008 at 7:11 pm #

I like it.and i do agree it needs a bit of cleaining up but to have some sense here, Kelis was not the first to rock a super short cut. nor was Mary the first to rock a bob. it is known that stuff will be repeated so the question is did she pull it off or not? not did she jack it from Kelis or mary well? Grow up people!!!
Brittany on January 31, 2008 at 7:18 pm #

I LOVE IT!!!!! But Kelis did have this same hairstyle last yr… and I loved it when Kelis had it!!
Naya on January 31, 2008 at 8:11 pm #

i think she looks cute but i prefer the other cut better i mean how short is she tryna go…i hope not bald.
AVE One on January 31, 2008 at 8:16 pm #

I think that it is hottt! It’s flattering on her (there isn’t much that she can’t do). The downside of this cut is that your wardrobe has to be on point, if not the clothes, then the make up. No slacking!!!
blu_sparkle06 on January 31, 2008 at 8:24 pm #

it looks great, she doesnt look right with long hair, cutting her hair was the best decision she ever made
ebony on January 31, 2008 at 9:28 pm #

LOVE! It’s edgy and refined - rocker chic at its best. Rihanna def has the style game on lock right now!

Now this girl is upsetting me lol, at the minute i’ve got a bob just like her older style and was just sending emails to my hairdresser to show her how i want my hair cut the next time…… only to find out RiRi got my style first so now its just gonna look like i’m a Rihanna tribute act, lol whats worse is that I’m a bajan

Hott to death!!!

SHE LOOKS A MESS !!!!!!!

Are we forgetting that Kelis set this trend a while ago? Kelis always rocks it better…I personally don’t like it on Rihanna.
Ione on February 3, 2008 at 12:43 pm #

I like it! Rihanna is finding herself, and so far it’s working for her.
