Crown Reserve is made in Randallstown, Maryland, and we sell in person around the Baltimore area at farmers markets, wellness expos, and pop up markets. If you would rather smell an oil before you buy it, come find us.

Why we still do markets

Every product here is made by one person by hand, and markets are where we find out whether the thing works for people who are not already customers. Somebody walks up, tells us their hair is breaking at the ends, and we get to ask questions and hand them the right bottle instead of guessing from a product page.

It is also the only place you can smell the oils first. The Scalp Oil is green and herbal from the neem and clove, with a cool finish from the peppermint. Strands + Ends is softer and warmer. People almost always have a preference once they smell them side by side.

What we bring to markets

• All three oils, so you can smell and feel them before choosing
• The Flaxseed Gel, including a jar you are welcome to touch
• The bundles, at the same prices as online
• Card payments, so you do not need cash

Where we usually are

Our regular spot has been the Druid Hill Farmers Market in Baltimore on Wednesday afternoons, and we vend at wellness and beauty expos around Maryland through the year.

Market schedules shift with the season and the weather, so check TikTok before you make the drive. Current dates, times, and any cancellations get posted there first at @alysiatawanta.

Want us at your event?

If you run a market, expo, church event, or pop up in the Baltimore or DC area and you want a Black owned natural hair care vendor, reach out through the contact page. Tell us the date, the location, and the expected turnout.

Can I pick up an order instead of shipping it?

Ask. If you are local and we have a market coming up, meeting you there is usually easier for both of us than paying for shipping. Send a message through the contact page before you order.

Not local?

Everything is on the site, and shipping is free on orders $40 and up. Start with the bundles if you are not sure which product fits your hair, or read the ingredients page first if you are particular about what goes on your scalp.
