The lob [1] may be one of the biggest hair trends [2] to take over Hollywood this spring, but if there's anything we've learned about Rihanna [3] over the last decade, it's that she's way more of a trendsetter than a follower. As a handful of her fellow celebs have debuted bobs and shoulder-length haircuts [4] over the past few months, the multihyphenate star recently stepped out showing off her all-new pixie cut [5] — and it's definitely giving us flashbacks to her Unapologetic era.

Rihanna [6] revealed her new cut as she was caught by paparazzi leaving Santa Monica restaurant Giorgio Baldi on 6 May. As noted by The Cut, she debuted a pixie cut at the 2012 MTV Video Music Awards [7], and while she wore her hair in the style for several months to follow, it's been a minute since we've seen her hair this short. One of her most recent hair changes was an edgy mullet hairstyle [8], and for the last few months, she's cycled between that and wavy extensions. We're not sure if her new short hair means that a new era is upon us, but we're excited to feel like it's 2012 again.
