438 days of generation-defining bops, hits and smashas, all accompanied by that iconic red hair :jonny:

Cheers should have been a number-one hit, but it has got tour video treatment and was killed by WFL.

A sabotage

I remember a girl I knew at the time saying she wasn't a fan of the red hair because it wasn't as edgy or trendsetting at the as the GGGB/Rated R era hair. Little did she know that red wig would be just as, if not more, iconic than those eras hair :eli:

 

Also, she released some of my favorite Rihanna hits during the red hair era. Ugh, what an iconic time for Rihanna and pop music! She was giving everything :jonny:

The way it was flying up the charts even with a tour video then Rihanna killed it's momentum with WFL. She's sick! :jonny2:

ICONIC.

 

:WAP:

One of the most iconic eras ever - everyone wanted to be her with the red hair

The way that red wig held her career together during 2010-2011

 

Iconic indeed

Rihanna is so impactful just based on her hair, imagine that.

Red hair was one of the most iconic looks. 

 

Also a good Era. Full of successful

Yeah, I just checked stats, it peaked at #7 on Hot 100 and #11 on Mainstream Top 40 during October. :rip:

Likewise, WFL have killed You Da One or whatever it was called.

The way she stomped all over UK that era :jonnycat:miss gurl had us gagged

What a time to be a teen during this era. :jonnycat:

I miss the days of Rih's last single of an era being released just weeks before the lead to her new era :rip::jonny4:

The way all the girls started dyeing their hair red after that :jonny5:

whilst Rihanna tended to  be a a bit faceless at times just whacking out single after single, this red hair era was geniunely a thing in my country (UK). Quite regularly a post about men wearing t-shirts with rihanna's red hair back in  printed on it will go viral on twitter - there's a shop called 'topman' that sold it in 2012 and it was prominently paired with chinos

Red is such a beautiful hair colour, and it suited Rihanna so well. I wish she had continued to go with that look longer.

Her best era...

Ironically the music aged the worst tbh. S&M, Only Girl, etc are just a product of their time.

 

Rated R, its predecessor remains superior and the better album idgaf what ATRL tells me

I had the Red hair sweater from River Island :deadbanana:
