Summer is officially here and some of our favorite celebrities have been sporting a ton of gorgeous new hairstyles, but one staple summer hair trend that stars are loving is braids!
Braids are the one hair trend that never goes out of style because there are so many different ways to wear them. Whether it’s a classic braid, cornrows, or braided buns, they always look classic and chic. Summer is the season when everyone starts sporting braids because they’re the perfect look for a hot day when you want to push all your hair out of your face, and already, our favorite stars are sporting them. Rihanna, here at 31, arriving at her Fenty Pop-Up launch party at The Webster in NYC. Rihanna looked stunning in a sexy little Fenty Fuchsia satin drawstring dress, accessorized with the most fabulous David Webb jewelry, but it was her gorgeous long and tight braids that stole the show. Rihanna’s hair was dyed bright red, and her tight braids were super thin and tight, starting at her scalp and ending all the way down to her waist.
This isn’t the first time Rihanna has sported a dark red braided hairstyle. Below, for example, she previously wore a Rapunzel-style braid at the 2011 Met Gala… a side-swept fishtail at her concert in Milan. Looking for ideas to revive the hairstyle trend? Here might be a style that will captivate you.
