Rihanna Addresses Viral 'I'm Retired' T-Shirt, Insists New Music Is Coming
View Story"Oh my gosh, girl. That was not on the pamphlet," Rihanna, 36, told Refinery29's reporter. "I did not expect it to happen in waves, either. I thought it would just happen and grow back."
"But it went this spot, then this spot, then this spot," she continued, gesturing to different areas of her head. "And at that point, you're just like, 'Alright, enough is enough.'"
"I learned to embrace that in itself. That just actually made me get a little more creative and clever with my hairstyles," she added.
According to the Cleveland Clinic, postpartum hair loss is "a common condition that occurs about three months after childbirth and can last up to six months," and is caused by hormone changes. For most mothers, their hair will return to normal.
