Artistic swimmers competing at the 2024 Paris Olympic Games shared the secret to performing in the water while maintaining an impeccable hairstyle. The female athletes, who have taken to social media to reveal the process of beautifying their performances, shared a common secret ingredient: Knox gelatin.
The official TikTok page for Yahoo Sports posted a video on Wednesday (August 7) to address the following questions: “What do artistic swimmers put in their hair, and how do they get it out?”
In the viral video, which amassed nearly 600,00 views, Team USA’s Daniella Ramirez explained: “We put Knox gelatin on [our hair], and Knox gelatin is basically what you use for Jello. It’s powder, and you put it with hot water.”
