Keep an eye out for the track stars, especially.
Although the Olympics has its set of beauty rules and regulations each athlete must follow, that doesn’t mean some of our favorites weren’t able to show their personality with creative hair and nail looks at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. In fact, I don’t remember Olympics beauty being this fun in a while—though I can’t say I’ve seen all the games. I’m not exactly the biggest fan of sports but there’s something about this year that’s a cause for celebration.
OK, fine, I guess the rules matter. According to the USA Gymnastics Women’s Program: 2020-2021 Rules and Policies, hair must be “secured away from the face so as to not obscure her vision of the apparatus.” That’s why you see so many buns and ponytails, especially. Looking through the rule book, it seems makeup and manicures are fair game, though in some sports, athletes choose not to go too wild to distract from their performance.
Lucky for us, that means there are athletes that experiment with their looks—in a seriously fun way. Below, some of our favorites from this year’s Olympics so far. Simone Biles’s Colorful French Manicure During this sweet moment between Biles and China’s Guan Chenchen, we spotted the American athlete’s twist on the classic French mani. It looks like a double French, with the regular white tips plus a different color line on each nail. Obsessed.
