Simone Biles responded to critics about her hair just hours before winning her 8th Olympic medal.

Even though Simone Biles is the most decorated U.S. Olympic gymnast with over 35 medals and the Presidential Medal of Freedom, some people still criticize her.

One person complained, “Simone Biles’ hair never looks right. Everyone else on the team looks put together, but she looks like she just rolled out of bed.”

Before the women’s gymnastics team finals, Simone Biles, 27, shared a message for her critics on her Instagram Story.

“Don’t comment on my hair,” Simone Biles wrote in a video she posted. “It was done, but the bus had no AC and it was super hot. Plus, the ride was 45 minutes.”

In another Instagram Story, she shared a selfie and said, “Gonna hold your hand when I say this

Many women usually wear their hair in a slicked-back ponytail or bun, but Simone Biles has been wearing a looser style.

Despite the rules, many people on social media have criticized Simone Biles’ hairstyle.

Comments include:

“Simone Biles’s hair stylist should be fired.”
“Did Simone Biles purposely not do her hair? Every other gymnast’s hair is neatly done, but hers is messy. It almost seems on purpose… wtf?”
“I know Simone Biles talked about hair comments in her documentary, but she needs someone else to do her hair, not just her mom.”
“Simone Biles is flawless, but her hair isn’t.”
I don’t see anything wrong with Simone’s hair. She’s following the rules, so she should be able to wear it however she wants. People need to leave her alone!

For her niece Madie, this simple, powerful message was profound enough to become a permanent reminder—a tattoo she proudly wears as a tribute to her aunt’s faith and resilience.

Faith stories like Tina’s often strike a chord because they touch on universal themes of hope, resilience, and belief in something beyond ourselves. Such experiences can reinforce faith for believers and inspire hope, even for those who may struggle with doubt. Tina’s journey and her message remind us that faith and courage are potent sources of inner strength, particularly in the face of life-altering challenges.

Through sharing Tina’s story, Madie has helped spread a message of love, resilience, and hope, demonstrating how even in the face of death, Tina’s belief carried her—and her family—forward. In difficult times, stories like these serve as beacons, offering comfort, strength, and a reminder of the profound impact faith can have on our lives.
