The Allure March 2018 edition is giving us serious William sisters vibes! We spy braids and hair accessory beads as far as the eye can see. It is a beautiful thing. The cover featuring Oscar winner, Lupita Nyong’o is certainly one for the culture.

Allure March 2018 Issue Featuring Actress Lupita Nyong’o

Don’t wear your hair like that. Those look unprofessional. Braids can never be classy. Sound familiar?

For years, those are some of the expressions women of color have had to endure when it comes to hairstyling. Especially, when wearing their tresses in the form of braids. However, Allure magazine is diving into a different mindset and space. One where people can try to open and stretch their thoughts or opinions to see not only the beauty, but versatility of curls, waves, coils and kinks.

This week Allure excitedly revealed their upcoming March 2018 edition and shared a fitting quote. The magazine says,

“Presenting our March 2018 issue, The Culture of Hair, starring Lupita Nyong’o. In addition to talking to Nyong’o about her relationship with her hair; we also gave her and  hairstylist, Vernon Francois total freedom over her looks.

‘Lupita and I wanted to show that coily or kinky hair has many strengths and can be worn in lots of different ways. [Thus] celebrating its beauty and versatility.’ says Francois.”
