In honour of the launch of Fenty Hair, we look back at Rihanna’s best hairstyles over the years

Rihanna: undisputed drip, beauty mogul, and conglomerate pop star, all in one. We can talk Rihanna all day. From her seamless style evolution to how ANTI has soundtracked most of our heartbreaks, to how we've been gnawing at our ends for her album to come to. Some day. What we must give credence to, however, is her hair journey. And from what we know, it's only beginning. The singer has announced a new fleet of haircareFenty Hair – under the Fenty Beauty Family.

In her own words, Rihanna has been around the block and then some, saying: "I’ve had almost every texture, color, length, from weaves to braids to natural- so I am launching a flexible line of products for not only every hair want, but every single product is designed to strengthen and repair all types of hair, which is what we truly need! It’s time to play and get stronger by the style."

Toted as a flexible line, Fenty Hair will encompass all hair textures and types. Rihanna is no stranger to experimenting with a multitude of hairstyles, from shade to length to cut. Below, we commemorate some of the crowning feats of gravity and hair that the singer/mother polymath has given us.

Let's start with the newest entrant: this little curled pixie in sandy blonde is killing us. Perfect for a debut announcement.

This caramel blow-out is just the right amount of feathery.

Light crimping added textural layers that we didn't know we needed.

This tightly coiled look is effortless and intricate at the same time.

A slicked back moment for the Met Gala.

Not a strand out of place.

Pioneered the boy-pixie cut. I mean really.

So off-duty it hurts.

A perfect up-do is one that resists the pull of gravity.

Original bad gal Ri.
