Miss Naturally Crowned is the world's premier beauty pageant system for women with naturally afro-ethnic textured hair.

Founded in December 2013 in Columbia, South Carolina, by a pair of "bestie-preneurs" and natural hair enthusiasts, Miss Naturally Crowned pageants have become some of the most unique, highly anticipated experiential events in the natural hair industry!

Miss Naturally Crowned contestants are women ages 19-30, at various points in their natural hair journeys, who have all chosen to embrace their natural kinks, curls, coils, and locs. In the spirit of the founders' commitment to scholarship, entrepreneurship, and unapologetic authenticity, eligible contestants must also submit academic transcripts or one-page business plans outlining their own dream business or non-profit organization ideas.

In the weeks leading up to the pageant, as well as those that follow, these city-level events provide personal growth and positive bonding experiences for contestants, as well as major marketing opportunities for sponsors, vendors, advertisers, social influencers, and live performers.
