Sha’Carri Richardson’s Nails Should Win a Medal
2024 Olympics: Jimmy Fallon Reveals How He’s Preparing to Host the Closing Ceremony
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. (For when she’ll compete and a full schedule of the Games, click here.)
“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.”
