After losing her spot in the Olympics, the track star went from one of the most-watched athletes to a subject of controversy.

Yet, that all may change since she will be back on the track at the Prefontaine Classic on Saturday in Eugene, Oregon.

And, what better way to prepare for the occasion than with a new 'do and a message to the competition.

On Wednesday, the 21-year-old posted a Tik Tok video of herself with her natural hair out at a salon.

The clip then cuts to an "after" shot of the athlete at the salon – glammed up and rearing to go.

Sha'Carri is doing a voice over of a popular Nicki Minaj clip which says, "I took some time off to rest and now it’s game time, b**tches. You have no idea."

Whew! Hopefully, her challengers are ready!

The athlete will compete against a 100 meters field similar to the group she would've faced off against in Tokyo.

Still, the event could be the redemption Sha'Carri needs to put her right back on the map and remind everyone she is the sixth-fastest woman in the world.

The sprinter was barred from competing in this year's Olympics after a urine sample she submitted tested positive for THC.

At the time, Sha'Carri shared that she had been using the drug to help her cope with the loss of her biological mother, who passed away before she qualified for the Olympics.

Since then, there has been ongoing debate about athlete's mental health and recreational use.

But everybody loves comeback story, and for Sha'Carri, this could be it!
