Rihanna Black Feminine Pixie Haircut


Added: 30 Jul 2012
Rihanna stepped out recently wearing a dramatic new short hairstyle that makes her look like a modern day Betty Boop... maybe she's not such a bad girl after all! This feminine pixie-style cut looks great with her gorgeous features, not to mention that the natural black hair color looks flawless with her latte complexion and green eyes. Finally, Rihanna has ditched the crazy red weaves and is going for a more demure look.

To go with her new haircut, Rihanna chose simple makeup for a modern, fresh look. Her green eyes have been highlighted with shades of peach, brown and bronze and her lips look fabulous in matte red lipstick. Rihanna has also used a soft brown pencil to fill in her eyebrows, which is especially important when you are wearing a dramatic, face-framing hairstyle.

The back and sides of this short 'do are cropped short and close to the head, maintaining a neat and tidy finish to the edges. The back and sides have also been blended into the top length, which has been left long enough to be worn flat for a smooth and sexy finish. Product is needed for hold and shine as well as regular trims to maintain the style.

To finish off the entire look, Rihanna chose a gorgeous white dress and matching diamond stud earrings. Dangly or drop earrings would be another good choice for ladies who have pixie cuts like Ri-Ri, but just make sure they don't overpower the simplicity of the look. This is just one example of how keeping it simple with your hair, makeup and clothes can produce stunning effects.
