Natural Hair Fest continues to support awareness surrounding the importance of inclusion and equal opportunity through conversations connected to the The CROWN Coalition and the historic The CROWN Act movement. “Create a Respectful and Open World for Natural Hair” remains the driving force behind the legislation originally championed by Holly J. Mitchell in California. The CROWN Act became the first state-level legislation in the United States prohibiting discrimination based on hairstyle and hair texture, protecting the rights of individuals to wear natural hairstyles such as braids, locs, twists, knots, and Afros in workplaces and public schools. Houston, Texas recognizes the CROWN Act. The Creating a Respectful and Open World for Natural Hair (CROWN) Act was signed into Texas state law in May 2023 and went into effect on September 1, 2023. The state law prohibits race-based hair discrimination in workplaces, schools, and housing policies. It protects natural hairstyles and textures historically associated with race—such as afros, braids, locs, twists, and cornrows.
