Rihanna says her haircut was empowering

Rihanna had her long hair hacked off and made into her famous bob as a protest against her record label head honchos.
She says that in the beginning of her career, she was styled by music execs, but she decided to take charge of her own life and cut off her hair.
She says, “In the past I had no say in how I was presented. Those decisions were made for me, right down to the color of my lipstick. I was in Paris and I fancied a change of hairstyle. I had my long locks cut off and came away with this cute bob. Someone from my record company saw me and said, ‘It looks nice but it’s just not you. We’ll have to put extensions in.’ I was completely crushed. That’s when I realized things had to change. I make my own decisions now.”
I don’t blame her, her bob is cute.
