Rihanna reflects on being taught to love what she ‘didn’t have’

Rihanna opens up about the hair struggle that inspired her brand

Rihanna confessed that “falling in love” with her hair led her to one of her biggest milestones.

In a chat on Sofa by Lena Situations podcast, which was recorded before her third pregnancy news, released on October 24, the singer and beauty mogul opened up about her hair journey.

“We’ve always been taught to love what you don’t have, especially when it comes to hair,” Rihanna began. “If you have straight hair, you want it bigger. If you have big, curly hair, you want it smoother and thinner.”

The Diamonds hitmaker went on to say: “It was a struggle for me. Falling back in love with my hair was the biggest inspiration for me to create this brand. I wanted products that not only worked, but more importantly, I wanted them to repair your hair and rebuild your hair every step of the way.”

Furthermore, Rihanna also opened up about how her past insecurities still linger in her creative work and leave her with doubts.

“When I make my albums, I get to a point where I’m like, ‘Wow, I’ve lived with this for so long, I know it works, but now I’m about to give it to the world. Is it real? Is it real yet?'” she recalled. “I experience that with all my product development. If you are creative, you have doubts.”

It is pertinent to mention that Rihanna is a mother of three children, sons, RZA and Riot, and newborn baby girl, Rocki Irish Mayers.
