Sha’Carri Richardson isn’t just that girl on the track; she’s a walking canvas of stories, swagger, and symbolism. Between blowing past finish lines and dropping truth bombs in interviews, the sprint queen’s tattoo game is as strong as her starts. But what’s the deal with her ink? Let’s break down the body art that’s become as iconic as her neon nails and fiery persona.

Sha’Carri’s got at least eight known tattoos splashed across her arms, legs, chest, back, and even between her breasts. This isn’t your average “mom” heart or basic script—every piece is a deliberate flex of her personality, beliefs, or battles. Think of them as her personal highlight reel, etched in ink. From dragons to biblical verses, her tattoos scream “unapologetic” as loudly as her 10.65-second 100m world championship win.

As mentioned earlier, each tattoo tells a chapter of her life. So, let us check on the most iconic tattoos:

Dragon (Left Shoulder): This bad boy isn’t just for looks. Richardson says it represents “fortune, authority, and good luck”—and doubles as a nod to being misunderstood, much like her own career rollercoaster. “The dragon is misunderstood… But the meaning of my dragon is fortune, authority, and good luck,” she explained.
