Emerson Salon – Capitol Hill Seattle

Rihanna’s new hairstyle is rockin! Another version of the mohawk, the sides and back of her hair are cropped very short. The top is long in the front and has a lot of texture and shape. Most of the work in her hair is done within the haircut. The shorter locks in the back are fun and help push the longer hair in front forward. Rihanna has thick hair and it is left wider in the front and has a stylish bang. The blond chunks are bold and work great with her hair texture!

Her basic hairstyle can be achieved by styling her hair forward using hair gel, a brush and a hair dryer. The front is a bit trickier- the swoopy bang is achieved by her stylist combing gel through the hair into the shape it is in and “set” until completely dry. The entire hairstyle then is then finished and set in place with hairspray! Kevin Murphy’s Session Spray would be ideal for Rihanna. Session Spray uses weightless resins which gives the hair a flexible finish, hold, and high shine without the stiffness; allowing her and her style to shine through!
