## Rihanna’s Hair Obsession: A Look at the Singer’s Luxurious Hair Care Routine
Rihanna, a global icon who effortlessly blends her roles as a musician and influencer, is known for her impeccable style, from head to toe. Her signature look involves constantly reinventing her hair to match her fashion choices, and she always pulls it off flawlessly. This isn’t just a matter of luck – Rihanna is dedicated to her hair, reportedly spending a whopping $30,000 a month on hair care.
According to *Life & Style* magazine, Rihanna’s unwavering commitment to beauty extends to her hair. “She’s been spending over $30,000 a month on her hair for years, and even after having her baby, it hasn’t changed. Rihanna has a personal hairstylist who styles her hair every time she goes out. She has hair extensions that she changes weekly, and she’s always trying out new styles.”
While the article doesn’t name the personal hairstylist, Rihanna has two favorites: Yusef Williams and Ursula Stephen. Ursula created Rihanna’s iconic asymmetrical bob for her *Good Girl Gone Bad* era, and Yusef styled her for the advertising visuals of her hair care line, Fenty Hair, launched in June 2022. Both have been at the helm of Rihanna’s diverse hairstyles for over a decade.
In an interview with *USA Today*, Yusef revealed that Rihanna’s hairstyle for an event isn’t meticulously planned months in advance; it’s dictated by her mood on the day. *Refinery29* quoted Yusef praising Rihanna’s adventurous spirit: “She’s a risk-taker, and she doesn’t shy away from trying green lips with green hair.” He even shared that the only hairstyle she hasn’t explored is a buzz cut.
Indeed, we’ve witnessed Rihanna sport every shade of hair color imaginable, from fiery red to electric blue to classic black, all in a variety of lengths and styles. Her stunning head shape and impeccable sense of style make her look effortlessly glamorous in any hairdo. But even Rihanna doesn’t keep the high-maintenance styles going 24/7. “My favorite hair is a bun or ponytail because it’s relaxing and makes me feel normal.”
Beyond extensions and wigs, Rihanna prioritizes maintaining her natural hair in healthy condition. For drugstore products, Yusef recommends ORS Olive Oil Moisturizing Hair Lotion. For a more luxurious touch, he suggests Peter Thomas Roth treatments available at Sephora. “Hot oil treatments using raw castor oil are essential for keeping hair strong and healthy.” Yusef emphasizes the need for rest: “Hair needs to rest too. For damaged hair, it’s important to leave extensions out for 10 weeks and avoid perms for 10 months.” He advises a communicative approach to hair care, listening to its needs and providing what it requires.
Rihanna is also known for having strong opinions about what she doesn’t want to see on the red carpet. When she gets hair inspiration, she shares it with Yusef through her phone. They meticulously communicate their visions, ensuring that Rihanna is never caught off guard by Yusef’s work. Her trust in her hairstylist empowers her to boldly experiment with eccentric styles.
This unwavering confidence in her hair is a testament to Rihanna’s dedication to her personal style and the power of communication. “Rihanna takes pride in her hair. She doesn’t hold back in her efforts to keep it in top condition, and she’s not afraid to spend money.” This unwavering commitment to her hair is evident in her own hair care line, Fenty Hair, which she confidently promotes as products that are “not only what every hair needs, but every product is formulated to strengthen and repair all hair types.” Get ready to experience Rihanna’s dedication to hair firsthand.
