Sha'Carri Richardson flaunts new hairstyle as she gears up for Paris Olympics 2024

Sha'Carri Richardson, who recently secured her position at the Paris Olympics, has shared a new look as she gets ready to represent the US on the biggest stage. The American athlete proved her prowess in the 100m at the US Olympic trials, which was held at the Hayward Field in Eugene, Oregon.

The 24-year-old will be competing in the first Olympic Games of her career after her major setback in Toyo in 2021. She tested positive for marijuana intake, which eventually led to her withdrawal from the team. However, the athlete has bounced back stronger and has proved her prospect as a formidable athlete by winning the 100m race at the trials in an impressive 10.71s.

Apart from her athletic establishments, the athlete is also known for her fashion sense. She usually flaunts her hairstyles and unique nails, which are inspired by the legendary track and field athlete Florence Griffith-Joyner.

Richardson recently uploaded a video on Instagram where she showcased a new wig that was straight and black in color. Exuding confidence in her new look, the athlete wrote in the caption:

"Confidence knows no limits *mirror emoji*"

"Yeah, that was a moment, but that was the first time and from there I was hooked on my nails. Nails have always been my art like they’ve always had my attention."
