Ahead Of The Olympics, Simone Biles Shares A Message About Her Hair

Simone Biles, 27, posted multiple Instagram Stories on Monday, July 22, showing images from Paris’ Olympic Village.

She snapped a photo of her room with teammate Jade Carey, including their “cardboard” beds. Another photo showed the US women’s gymnastics team in Ralph Lauren tracksuits. Biles also inspected the gymnastics arena.

Biles’ final photo on Monday was a selfie with teammate Jordan Chiles, her hair in a sloppy ponytail and flyaway hairs around her face.

Biles told Elle Magazine that she’s come a long way in her hair journey. “I don’t really care if my edges aren’t smooth,” she said. “I used to worry about [my hair being considered] not professional. But I’m not embarrassed about it anymore.”
