The first Allure of 2008 features Rihanna as its cover girl. In the interview, she explains that she chopped her hair into a bob without her label's permission:
"The label didn't want me to do this look. But cutting my hair, it made me stand out as an artist. I don't care who likes it — this is me."
Or, to be more precise, it was her. The singer stepped out in London yesterday with soft, wavy, and longer locks. What do you think of this new hairstyle?

cute.
she was kinda dumb cutting off her hair like that. but whatever.
1looks great but i loved the bob
2She looks great either way, but I did love the edginess of her bob.
3Love it! She looked amazing with the bob however everyone comes to a point where they want a change; the style is really pretty on her.
4she looks great with either.
5I loved the bob as well but this is very cute too. I can't think of anything that'd look bad on her anyway!
6I like the bob better, but this is okay too.
7hate! i loved her hair short better!
8She looks pretty either way but the bob was much cuter.
9She looks good no matter what it seems.
10I preferred her bob-cut simply cause it look to be her own hair.
I am so tired of the hair extensions... big ole Beyonce wigs... have any of these girls really thought about not destroying their natural hair?
11i love the long hair.
12the short hair was good too.
I don't think this looks bad, but I really liked her bob.
13I am not crazy about the long hair on her.
14She always looks cute.
15I love it!
16She looks great anyway she wears it
17I liked the bob before - when no one had it - but this looks pretty too
18I'M ALL ABOUT STANDING OUT IN THE CROWD. NO.
19this softens up her features....the bob was edgier. I like both. she's young. she could bald and STILL look amazing.
20boooooooring. i loved her bob. now she's back to looking like everyone else.
(though i'm one to talk b/c i'm totally trying to grow my hair out.)
21she looks great whatever her hair style is.
22Rihanna would look great bald... I don't think it matters what she does to her hair, she's got a naturally beautiful face that could pull just about anything off
23i said Hate it only because I don't like her especially after laughing at Britney..
24i love this look so much better than the bob!!!
25i really liked the bob on her.
26Her songs are catchy, but I don't think she's a really great artist, or all that attractive. I don't really get the hype.
27I loved her bob and I think it did set her apart Now it just looks like she's trying to go the same direction as every other "bombshell" out there. I don't think longer hair necessarily makes a woman more beautful and I think with her features the angles in the bob totally made her fierce
28looks good in any style
29Not into it. It ages her a bit.
30I preferred her bob
31i dont mind it! i think it looks kinda cute.. a nice change.. good old hair extensions!
32She's a beautiful girl, but needs bangs for that forehead
33i think she looks good. but she also looks pretty average now. the bob gave her some edge.
34She looks good with everything,short,long,brown,black.
35she's been fortunate to have good hair styles - either way she looks nice. you have to admit - she's got balls to cut her hair against her label's wishes - but she is young - so she's allowed to be like that
36Much better. She annoyed me with that bob... I don't know why it just seemed like she was putting on a fake persona.
37I really don't like this. It looks greasy :S
38She still look amazing.
39Love it. To be honest I'm getting sick of the bob. Everywhere I look I see someone with that hair cut
40I think this looks way better for her face shape than the bob.
41I'm getting sick of the bob (maybe because Saleisha had it on Top Model) so I chose love it.
42looks Cute
43very '80's!
44i liked the bob better
45Don't really like it so curly.
46Both are hot. The main difference which has changed her look so much is the color change. She used to rock the brown/blond Beyonce color. The black is perfect & edgy.
This is n't the first time I've seen her with a different length of hair since goign black & short. She does it often.
47She looks more conventionally pretty w/the long hair but it really works well. And, of course, the angled bob did her justice, too. Does anyone look bad in a bob (except moi)?
48I think it looks good on her - love it! But I HATE hair extensions. To me, it's the hair equivalent of thick, clown makeup.
49I like it either way.
