The Grammy-award winning, mutitaltented powerhouse frequently proves to be authentic to her style. Even when she's on a trend, everything is always so uniquely her and the same goes for her hairstyles.

Rihanna Robyn Fenty has made a signature look of always looking different as far as her hairstyles go. Long, short, curly, straight, and everything in between, Riri isn't shy to try something new, and that's resulted in some iconic looks over the years.
