O, The Oprah Magazine, September, Hair!- Favorite 

"It just might be one of the great hair days of all time. For O, The Oprah Magazine’s September 2013 hair-a-palooza issue, photographer Ruven Afanador captured Oprah Winfrey radiant in a magnificent Afro. (As was widely reported, the wig, which Oprah christened “Wild Thang,” weighed about the same as a Chihuahua.) The cover sparked “’Froprah” mania, garnering 337,346,650 media impressions; Oprah’s Instagram of the image drew some 75,000 likes in 24 hours. After 13 years and more than 160 issues with the same cover model (how’s that for a challenge?), O can still surprise, delight, and pump up the volume like nobody else."

The wig that was worn in the photo was mentioned millions of times on the internet. She had the same cover models for 13 years and still got a ton of attention. The picture was clear and vibrant with colors. 

#4 Magazines Part II 

For image based magazine covers, at least one or more people need to be looking directly at the camera. Some magazine companies will have their models not smile and just have a straight face, or look away from the camera. With concept based magazine covers, the person who is looking at it needs to instantly understand what is happening in the picture. This is really hard to do because not everyone can easily understand a joke, and the photo still has to be beautiful. Type based magazine covers are rare, and also shocking to most viewers. Words show importance in a way, makes this style particularly interesting. Illustration based covers are the most rare out of them all. In past times, all magazine covers were drawn, but now they are digital. Illustrations are for comedic purposes nowadays.
