Gabrielle is a breath of fresh air. There is nothing wrong with her hair, so the explanations, excuses and justifications are not necessary. She will be successful what ever way she chooses to wear her hair. Love her the way she is.

Gabrielle is an American. She was born, raised and educated in the U.S. She did not migrate to this country from Africa, take a citizenship test, and become a “Naturalized Citizen”. She may very well have other blood in addition to the African. She is an outstanding athlete, beautiful both inside and out, a winning smile, and a personality that draws you in. It is her success as an athlete and her personality that draws people, not the color of her skin. I am not white, Asian, Mexican or Middle Eastern.

Insecure and jealous people will always find faults in others.

Natalie, You are like the others. “A little moose, a blow dry out with a volumnizing round brush and a spritz of hair spray. I do color once a month to keep away the grey hairs and that’s it. I wish that more women of all colors would lay off of the chemicals and go for a more natural look with their hair. You can certainly style your hair and make it look good and well cared for without being fake, fake, fake with it.” A lot of women are ok with gray hair, so they don’t color it, they wear it natural. A lot of women don’t use moose, nor blow dry.

Oh I remember Dawes well – so much that I had a huge crush on her lol. On a serious note, you made some good points. Why focus on Gabby when her fellow competitors had the same the of hair bun or whatever? Who cares?

People are so dumb. They might not have noticed that Gabby was wearing the same hairstyle that all the other USA gymnasts were wearing – it was like part of the USA uniform, typical gymnast-hair circa 2012.

I don’t know if any of you have followed the sport long enough to remember Dominique Dawes with her scrunchied-bun and glitter-hairspray and tiny barrettes? It was typical mid-1990s gymnast-hair.

These are athletes. They’re mainly trying to secure their hair in a streamlined way so it stays out of their faces and doesn’t fly into their eyes and blind them as they’re tumbling or swinging bars. Hair fashion is a complete afterthought for these athletes.
