Simone Biles is enjoying some well-earned pampering.

After the gymnast, 27, earned her fourth medal at the 2024 Paris Olympics, she celebrated with a fresh new hairstyle.

Biles showed off her long locks in her Instagram Stories on Aug. 6, tagging her hairstylist Brenton Diallo.

Diallo shared the same photo of Biles on his grid, adding another picture of the two of them together. He wrote in the caption, “What A Magical Morning! Reuniting With The GOAT!

We Go Back Now 8 Years Now And I Couldn’t Be More Honored To Come Slay Your Hair When You’re On Top Of The World. Ps 8 Years Woof We GROWN Grown haha ❤️ YOU!”

The gymnast commented on the photos, writing, “gold medal stylist babyyyyy,” with four hearts and three gold medal emojis, which just so happens to be exactly how many gold medals she won in this year’s games.

Biles, who is now the most decorated U.S. women’s gymnast of all time with 11 Olympic medals, took to social media in the early days of this year’s games to fire back at those criticizing her hair amid the Paris heatwave.

She posted a couple Instagram Stories on July 30 on a bus in Paris, holding a fan, and wrote, “Don’t come for me about my hair. IT WAS DONE but bus has NO AC & it’s like 9,000 degrees.”

In the video, her hair was pulled back into a ponytail with the ends curled. On that day, the weather was over 90 degrees in Paris. At the bottom of her post, she wrote that she had a 45 minute ride on the bus to get to where she was going.

She followed up her first post with a photo of her smiling with her eyes closed in her blank tank top as she reminded people that it’s never okay to comment on someone’s hair — heatwave or not.

Biles wrote, “gonna hold your hand when I say this,” before adding, “next time you want to comment on a Black girl’s hair, JUST DON’T.”
