Huang Xiaoxiao (simplified Chinese: 黄潇潇; traditional Chinese: 黃瀟瀟; pinyin: Huáng Xiāoxiāo; born March 3, 1983 in Qingdao, Shandong) is a female Chinese hurdler who specialises in the 400 metres hurdles.
Huang made her first impression on the world stage at the Athletics at the 2003 Summer Universiade, where she took a silver in the 400 m hurdles. Although disappointed when she did not qualify for the final heat of the Athens Olympics in 2004, Huang ran solidly at the next year's 2005 World Championships in Athletics, where she finished fifth in the 400m hurdles. She returned to the competition at the 2009 World Championships in Athletics and she reached the semifinals of the event.
The majority of her medals come from continental competitions in Asia. She won the hurdles title at the 2005 Asian Athletics Championships in a Championship record time of 55.63 seconds. Huang won at the 2005 East Asian Games later that year, setting a Games record in the process. She represented Asia at the 2006 IAAF World Cup, coming sixth in the final. Her strength on the Asian athletics scene was again confirmed at the 2006 Asian Games where she again beat all-comers.
