Self-Love’

9 Months Later

Posted by The Real Kim Coles in Gallery, Hair, Kimunity Blog, Poster, Tab Video: Hair, Video

Hi everybody! I'm celebrating NINE months as a natural!!! YAAAAY! I'm not a mother, but I feel like I birthed my very own bouncing baby AFRO! Now, I've said before that I considered myself "natural" for over 20 years because I had no chemicals in my hair. However, now I am natural with no length enhancement. Color? YES! But that is it. I'm having a BLAST and enjoying the journey more and more each day. Thanks for your support and comments and love...

Eliminate the Negative

Posted by The Real Kim Coles in Gallery, Kimunity Blog

I like to give credit where credit is due so I would like to share this with you. Thanks to Ms. Nova of ...But I Love Myself More, and Dumb Little Man, for reposting a blog post from writer Chrissy Scivicque of Eat Your Career. She wrote this great article about negative self talk and how to stop it. We all need to love ourselves enough to only say lovely things to you and treat yourself like your...

Kim’s in Control

Posted by The Real Kim Coles in Gallery, Hair, Kimunity Blog

In case you are just coming to the party, in January, I came "out" with my hair sans extensions. I caused a quite a stir, especially in the natural hair world and I was pleasantly surprised. Ok, ok, I know I keep talking about my hair. I'll even admit it, I'm obsessed! Folks keep saying "It’s just hair," but my choice to go natural has been affecting all aspects of my life. Trust me, if you had the SAME hair for...

Valentine’s Day Regimen

Posted by The Real Kim Coles in Gallery, Kimunity Blog, Tab Video: Kimunity, Video

Ahhhhh Love! Amore! Monday is Valentine's Day and everybody is in the mood for love. Bouquets of flowers, boxes of chocolate, teddy bears & balloons YAY! Right? Wrong. You know what I say? OMG, the pressure. Listen, I don't want to sound like a cynic, but to me, Valentine's Day has mostly lost its meaning. It went from supposedly being about romance and expressing true love to becoming another watered down, over- commercialized holiday where people are competing...

Stepping Into a Diet Free Life

Posted by The Real Kim Coles in Gallery, Kimunity Blog

Modeling in the early 80's After the high of high school, came the low of college. Well, I say low because I was so confused. I dropped in and out four times over-all because I couldn’t decide what to major in, and my self-esteem slowly plummeted. During one of my “absences,” I sent my picture to "It’s Me", a magazine for plus-sized ladies. Since I was a solid size 16 at this point, I thought, “What the heck. I’m going...

Some Twenty-LOVIN’

Posted by The Real Kim Coles in Kimunity Blog

Some Twenty-LOVIN' I’m going on a campaign of self-love this year Last week, I mentioned that I’m going on a campaign of self-love this year, which I have dubbed Twenty-LOVIN'. I am challenging myself to loving myself in 20 new ways this year. I am talking about making inspired choices that will affect my inner and outer being. Two of these things involve nurturing my lovely little ringlets and losing weight. Want to know more? Even better, do you want to...

More LOVIN’

Posted by The Real Kim Coles in Kimunity Blog

So how is 2011 treating you so far? How are those doggone resolutions coming along? UGH! I know. Well, as I shared in an earlier post, I am not into resolutions but I am into setting goals. Now that all the pressure has settled from starting something new right at the beginning of the year, I am ready to putting some real goals into effect now. In case you missed the memo, I call this year Twenty-LOVIN' because...

Whip up your hair

Posted by The Real Kim Coles in Gallery, Hair, Kimunity Blog

It's soooo exciting to have gotten an overwhelming response to my new DO! I can't keep up on Twitter. Add to that, my friends @stilettochyck and @jasminepowers suggested that not only do I make a video to Willow Smith's "Whip My Hair" but they decided to encourage me to have YOU whip YOUR hair. In celebration of my fab new natural hair, I would like you to showcase yours. Please send videos and pictures of you representing #teamnatural to...

New Year…New Hair

Posted by The Real Kim Coles in Hair, Kimunity Blog

I have a new look for the new year folks… Let me introduce you to my fabulous new coils! I just cut all the braids out of my head and I feel free, breezy and I admit a tad bit scared, but I took the leap anyway. I have been wanting to for a while. But I ’aint gonna lie, I bought a wig just in case! I’ve been consistently in micro-braids with human hair extensions since 1991. I did have...
