Why does 'afro' hair have a special appeal to people?

The allure of Afro hair lies in its powerful combination of natural beauty, versatility, and deep cultural, historical, and political significance.

The hairstyle is often described as a "crown," which represents resilience, pride, and self-expression, functioning as a bold, authentic statement against historical assimilation.

It has a special appeal to people due to its unique, varied textures and capacity to be styled in numerous forms, from natural coils, braids, to just letting it loose.
