While Thomas is trying out a new look after the Paris Olympics, she stayed up to date with her hair care even when competing. In a first, the Olympic Village for the 2024 Games featured a hair salon exclusively for textured hair, and the American was one of the many athletes delighted by the salon's service.

In a video shared on her TikTok, the 27-year-old expressed her enthusiasm about their services, saying:

"I just left the hair salon in the Olympic Village because I wanted to try it out. You know, a couple of girls said that they liked it And I was a little bit nervous, because I know a lot of people don't know how to do afro-textured hair, so I was expecting to come out of there crying, but, you know, she actually did a pretty good job. I feel cute. This really just made my day ... I'm really happy. It's just the little things that a lot of people take for granted. But I can't just walk into any salon.”

Gabby Thomas shares a ‘Get ready with me’ video

Even amid a busy schedule at the Paris Olympics, Gabby Thomas kept up with her skincare routine. She shared a video of herself getting ready on her Instagram, saying she likes to keep things simple and uses a jet lag mask to help her skin cope with the exhaustion of traveling.

“Hey guys, so I've had a really busy schedule lately between travel and practice, but I finally have an off day today so I'm going to get ready to go walk around, maybe check out another sport, then go shopping for an event I have later this evening. Usually after traveling, my skin looks very tired and dehydrated, so I'm going to use this ‘Summer Friday's’ jet lag mask. I use it as a daily moisturizer and when I'm traveling, and I love that it's fragrance free,” she said.

Thomas finished her routine with some lip balm.
