How To Change Text Alignment From Classic Editor
You might have noticed the text editor that is available when you're editing a paragraph or a title. This Editor is the classic editor.

This should displays now controls where we have the alignment options. We just have to select the paragraph we want to adjust and select the alignment we want to apply to it.
As you might have noticed, there is no justify alignment option. We'll then select any of the available alignment and toggle the "text editor" mode, where we can change the CSS attribute.
We'll just have to locate the paragraph we want to change the alignment and make sure the property "text-align" is set to "justify".
May people have been complaining about this matter and honestly, we don't really understand why this is not implemented on the core. You can first more discussions about this here.
