Tress Talk: Rihanna on Her Bright Red 'Do

Ever the coif chameleon, Rihanna changes her haircolor so fast it makes us dizzy! She's gone from brown to black to platinum to her newest, most controversial shade; an electric, cherry-Popsicle red hue. We love the bold choice, but we've often wondered what it's like to carry such a strong shade every day. In an interview with contactmusic.com, Riri speaks on her dazzling, daring 'do: "Red suits my mood right now, it's fun, playful and flirty. But I can't wear white anymore, and my god, my pillows... my sheets! I open my eyes and see red. I wake up thinking, 'What the hell? Who's died in here?'" Would you ever dye your hair such a strong shade? Let us know in the comments section! Here's what you had to say: Shannon commented via Facebook: "I love the color on her, but it doesn't fit my personality." Yvette wrote via Facebook: "I did it two weeks ago and I love it!"
