Rihanna Short Black Ash Hairstyle With Blue And Blonde Highlights

Added: 11 Sep 2008
This was another funky and fresh look for Rihanna at the 2008 MTV Video Music Awards. Her top layers had light blonde and blue pieces added to create an all-over contrast. The funky colors in this look are fun, but they also add another styling element to this hairstyle. It's definitely not for the faint-hearted, so if you're brave, go for it! Her hair has been curled and then placed into an updo, which adds height and body to this look. Due to the updo, thin to medium hair density will suit this look. If your hair is too thick, the updo will not hold, and you will have pieces falling out. Remember, when styling this hairstyle, you want to do it on hair that was washed a day or two before. This will help keep the look in place throughout your event. This hairstyle is best suited for those with a triangle, round, heart, or oval face shape.

When it comes to your makeup application, you want to keep it simple yet elegant. A colored wing liner paired with false lashes will work well. Finish off with a nude, pastel or light pink lipstick to contrast the blue in your hair, and you are ready to show off your funky new hairstyle!
