SAEDNEWS: At the 2024 Olympics in Paris, track star Sha'Carri Richardson could run away with some medals. But her nails are already worthy of a prize.
According to SAEDNEWS, To track phenom Sha'Carri Richardson, every day is a new starting line. And she is always set.
"I’ve always been taught that anytime you leave your house, you should look your best," the 100m and 200m specialist explained in a June interview with Nylon. "I feel that way when I compete, even though it’s on a larger scale. In life, you walk out your house and you want to manifest great things for yourself or attract just positive energy. In order to do that, you start with what makes your energy good."
And for the sprinter, who hopes to race away with some hardware at the 2024 Olympics in Paris, those vibes are right at her fingertips.
"Of course I love to mix it up with my fingernails," the 24-year-old Dallas native said of her signature long tips. Her manicure of the moment "is based on what mood I’m in," she continued. "What am I bringing to the track that day? I let my nails express that as well."
"I actually have a couple of nail techs that do different things for me," said Richardson, revealing her squad of four: "One would be Tokyo—she’s located in Orlando, and she’s phenomenal. Another one of my girls’ names is—I call her Bunny—but her name’s Mariah. There’s Ms. Kelly, and then also there’s Angie, who I love and who does my nails a lot when I travel."
These ombré nails were the center of attention at the 2020 Olympic Trials, with stars and gems detailing the stunning square set.
