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!

Found this hidden behind a cabinet in our new home. What is it used for?

A family found a secret chest full of personal mementos, old photos, and letters in the living room of their new house when they lifted a heavy cabinet. They set out to learn more about the past of the people who had occupied the property for many years after making this surprising discovery.

Through investigation and conversations with neighbors, the family assembled the stories of the lives entwined within the walls of their house. Their understanding of the history of the house was strengthened by the tales of love, grief, and joy that each object in the chest held.

In order to commemorate and preserve the memory of the home’s previous occupants, they made the decision to preserve these treasures by compiling a scrapbook. Their lives were enhanced by a stronger sense of continuity and belonging as a result of this fortunate discovery, which also linked them to the past of their new house.
