Gabby Douglas was the first African American to win Olympic individual all-around gold. She was also the 1st gymnast to win gold in both the individual all around AND team competition at the same Olympics. Yet, all people wanted to talk about was how her hair looked. Gabby took to her Instagram to open about that moment. What many didn’t know was that her hair was damaged from the tight way gymnasts wear their hair. She had a bald spot in the back of her head and was very self conscious of it. She then had to cut her hair off. She said she cried a lot. She was so upset she didn’t even want to go to the gym. She couldn’t understand why her hair was the topic of two Olympics as she was winning and killin it! She took to Instagram to show off her now long beautiful hair. She wrote, no extensions, no clip-ins, no wigs, no chemicals-all me. This is the second story this week of people being critical of celebs and not knowing or understanding what they were going through.
