Rihanna has always been a trendsetter, especially when it comes to her hair. Does anyone else remember the major waves she made when she debuted cherry red locks way, way back in 2010? Well, Rihanna just debuted a bright turquoise mane — and it may look even more amazing than her red hair did back in the day.

Her new style is shoulder length and voluminous, with wavy electric blue-green strands framing her flawless face like technicolor cotton candy. It's quite the gorgeous look, and it packs in roughly a metric ton of wow factor.

Rihanna previewed her new 'do in a recent Instagram video, pairing the glam hair with a white Balenciaga baseball cap, a Supreme x Louis Vuitton denim shirt, and some seriously chic retro sunglasses. How's that for #goals? To top things off, she cheekily captioned the debut post, "when yo hurr ready for crop ova'." Crop Over is a traditional harvest festival that takes place annually in Barbados, and Rihanna is slated to make multiple appearances at this year's festivities.

She followed the video clip up with a photo that showed off the new look to even better effect, highlighting the beautifully unique shade. Most recently, she posted another selfie in full Crop Over regalia that proves she's a gorg goddess.

What do you think? I'd say it ranks as one of Rihanna's best hairstyles to date. It's perfect for the end of summer and upcoming Crop Over celebrations.

It's very Sailor Neptune, who we all know had the whole turquoise hair game on lock.

The new mermaid hair is just the latest in a whole rash of amazing Rihanna-related news. She recently appeared in Valerian (and slayed all the red carpets, of course), and her namesake beauty line is set to launch next month. Get it, Ri-Ri!
