‘Enough Is Enough': Rihanna Opens Up About Postpartum Hair Loss
Rihanna is a mother to two sons, RZA, who is now two years old, and Riot, who is merely 10 months old, with ASAP Rocky.
After becoming a mother of two kids, Rihanna recently opened up about postpartum hair loss. At a recent Fenty Hair launch party in Los Angeles on June 12, the 36-year-old Barbarian singer and entrepreneur spoke about one of the most relatable side effects of motherhood.
As Rihanna gave birth to RZA, who is now two years old, and Riot, who is merely 10 months, she told Refinery29 at the launch party that she was unaware that this side effect was “on the pamphlet” during pregnancy or childbirth. “I didn’t expect it to happen in waves,” she said about hair loss adding that she thought “it would just happen and grow back.”
The Umbrella singer mentioned that she started losing hair in patches post-pregnancy. “At that point you’re just like alright enough is enough,” she said. However, Rihanna dealt with the issue by accepting and embracing it. From stylish high ponytails and disheveled long curls to honey-blonde bangs and layers, she became “more creative and clever” with her hairstyles.
In recent times, the singer and beauty mogul has even given up on wearing wigs and shared a rare glimpse of her real natural curls earlier this week during the public promotion of her luxury brand Fenty Hair.
