Rihanna Wore Jumbo Box Braids Down to Her Waist and Fans Are Loving the Look
Rihanna may be the queen of foundation shades, but when it comes to hair she tends to keep her style long, luxurious, and wavy. That's why whenever she does switch up her hairstyle — take these simple straight-back cornrows, for example — fans lose their damn minds.
Over the weekend, Rihanna traveled to her native Barbados to see the legendary and newly free Buju Banton in concert. She dressed up for the show in a checkered Off-White gown and matching boots. But the best part of her look was her new jumbo box braids, which stretched down to her waist.
The power of Rihanna in Barbados, wearing Virgil Abloh, rocking braids, and posing with Buju Banton is simply too much for the Internet to handle. Scroll through her mess of an Instagram comment section and you'll see fans shouting out the new look with sweet comments like, "I'm loving this hair" and "Ooo love the braids." Fans on Twitter were just as thrilled.
Leave it to Rihanna to make a go-to summer hairstyle light up your entire freakin' time line. We love the braids, but we also thought we'd point out they'd make a great foundation for faux locs if Rih is in the mood to switch up her hairstyle again.
We'll be adding this look to our summer hair inspo boards.
