Quench Your Curls! | Dove Quench Absolute Line

Beauty, Hair, Hair Care Article, Hair Care Products, The KG Theory, Wellness

This post is promoted by Dove Hair Weather alert! The summer has come to an abrupt end here in Dallas, and fall has set in. I must admit: Most days I love the break in 100-degree weather. The fall leaves and a cool breeze are perfect for a short walk during the day (gotta get my pedometer steps in) or having a cup of tea on my balcony over the weekend. Welp, with colder weather comes the very real need to show my curly, coily hair some attention, and Dove Hair has a new line that will do just that! The Dove Quench Absolute Line is infused with nutrients, protein, and buriti oil, and promises to: 1) Quench hair dryness 2) Strengthen the hair shaft 3) Improve hair manageability 4) Smooth the hair's fiber surface…

KG Goes to the U.A.E. | travel

KG on Scene, Lifestyle, The KG Theory, Wellness

"REFRESH, REFRESH! Try to bring it up on your iPad too! REFRESH!" That's what you could hear in my apartment last year on Christmas morning if you were within 10 feet of my front door. My dear friend @Jouelzy was in town and we woke up that morning to LOTS of messages and texts from friends announcing the AMAZING deal from Etihad Airways to Abu Dhabi. I had never been to Abu Dhabi so I was super intrigued. I had gone to Dhabi for my 26th birthday while living in Sudan, Africa but the thought of being in the U.A.E. with. friends was even more exciting! To be honest, I didn't take on the planning of this trip like I usually do. Too much was going on and I approached it with…

Be Inspired! | Camille Rose Naturals at Target!

Beauty, Hair, Hair Care Article, Hair Care Products, The KG Theory, Wellness

This post is promoted by Target! Inspiration comes in many forms. Our opinions are formed by our surroundings and the environments we’re exposed to. Growing up I was always trying to emulate my Mother's classic style. Her short curly bob and her simple red lip are forever branded in my style vault. Mommy will always be my #1 style inspiration and I catch myself looking more and more like her every day. Style icons these days are few and far between in my opinion. There are a few hairstyle icons who stand out, and they've inspired us all throughout the years. Here are a few of my favorites and some looks I created inspired by them using the amazing Camille Rose Naturals now available at Target! Solange Knowles Solange's look is imitated…

How Did I Get Here? My Hair Journey

Beauty, Hair, Hair Care Article, Hair Care Products, The KG Theory, Wellness

YAY! This post is promoted by Target! "Girlllll, you have got A LOT of hair!" Ever heard that growing up? I heard this proclamation constantly as a little girl but I never really understood what it meant. "Doesn't everyone have a lot of hair on their heads?" I would think to myself. *shrug* I can count on both hands how many times I went to the salon to get my hair done growing up. Stepping into a salon every other week was not something I was accustomed to. This was simply because most Saturday nights or Sunday mornings my Mommy would go to WERK! On my hair that is. Every weekend she would prepare my look for Sunday morning service at our church in San Diego, CA. I remember sitting on the floor…

My New Cut & Color with AVEDA

Beauty, Hair, The KG Theory, Wellness

Happy Tuesday Loves! I pray that this post greets you well! Just wanted to share my new cut and color experience with you! Here's a shot of one of my first reactions. Yeah.....I wasn't ready. But the pic above doesn't even touch on what the end result was! I was shocked to say the least, but I'm definitely learning to rock what I've got regardless! Have you ever had a "not quite what I expected" salon experience? (more…)

Overwhelmed? Time to Garden!

Faith, The KG Theory

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! (panic 'AH', not excited 'AH') That expression is exactly how I've been feeling lately. For awhile now actually. Lately I've found myself totally overwhelmed by the pressures of life. In fact...I can't really remember a time when I haven't felt the pressure (most of which I put on myself) to succeed, do more, be more, be better, work, work , work, work! I think the pressure fluctuates throughout the years but it's always there...lurking....the 20 to do lists I have for this project and the ideas that needs to be worked out. YEESH! It's like I'm trying to prove myself to MYSELF! Does that explanation make ANY sense? 6 years ago (whoa, time flies) at the age of 25 I felt the pressure of "life's achievements" so much so that I…
