Whether weaving braids or detangling knots, styling one’s hair is a tactile pasttime, just like reading. If you have a loved one whose passion for hair is only rivaled by her obsession for books and magazines, then you’ll want to look into CRWN Magazine.

Having launched earlier this year with Issue No. 01, the independent quarterly publication has an inspiring mission in mind for Black women everywhere.. “Through beautiful content, thoughtful commentary, hair inspiration and resources; we’re telling the world the truth about black women by showcasing a new standard of beauty—and documenting our story in tangible, print form,” reads the magazine’s website.
