Renowned singer and beauty mogul Rihanna has candidly shared her struggles with postpartum hair loss following the births of her two sons, Rza and Riot. In a recent interview with Refinery29, the 36-year-old Grammy winner revealed the unexpected nature of her hair loss journey, describing it as an unforeseen challenge that occurred in waves.
“I didn’t expect it to happen in waves. I thought it would just happen and grow back,” Rihanna confessed. The “Diamonds” singer described her experience as something “not on the pamphlet” for post-pregnancy, admitting her frustration when she noticed her hair falling out in patches.
Rather than allowing this setback to diminish her confidence, Rihanna turned her postpartum hair loss into a creative opportunity. She experimented with a variety of hairstyles, including high ponytails, long curls, honey-blonde bangs, and natural curls. This journey of rediscovery and experimentation ultimately inspired her to launch Fenty Hair, a new line of hair care products focused on repairing and strengthening hair.

The Fenty Hair line features an array of products designed for all hair types, including shampoos, conditioners, and treatments aimed at promoting healthy growth and repairing damage. At the launch party for Fenty Hair, Rihanna spoke about the challenges and rewards of creating the haircare line. She emphasized her commitment to developing effective products that align with her personal hair routine and cater to the needs of her diverse fanbase.
“Evolving as a woman and even as an artist, hair has been such a huge part of that and a reflection of whatever I’m feeling,” she shared. “So, it changes a lot and my hair goes through a lot. In making this brand, I had to consider all of those things. I want to look fly, but I want my hair to be healthy. How do I do that? All of my products need to strengthen and repair while I’m out just being fabulous.”
Rihanna’s Fenty Hair line aims to empower individuals to express themselves while maintaining healthy and strong hair. The products are now available for purchase and offer a wide range of options to meet various hair needs and preferences.
This new venture further solidifies Rihanna’s status as a multifaceted entrepreneur who continues to break boundaries in the beauty industry. With Fenty Hair, she not only addresses a personal challenge but also provides a solution for countless others experiencing similar issues, reaffirming her dedication to inclusivity and innovation.
