Metro’s Crown Club’s Natural Hair Care & Braiding Workshop was an amazing success! ✨💕
From learning healthy hair care practices to exploring fun and creative braiding styles, our Jacks and Jills had an incredible time learning how to care for and celebrate their crowns. The room was filled with confidence, culture, creativity, and community — exactly what Crown Club is all about!
A very special thank you to for sharing your expertise, patience, and passion with our youth. Your guidance made this experience both educational and empowering. 💛
We also want to recognize our teen Crown Club Chair, Trinity Bowen, for planning and leading such a special and impactful day.
