Kim Kardashianis leaning into her blonde alter ego — hard.
“I have different energy when I’m blonde,” theSKIMS foundertellsAllurefor the magazine’s August cover story. “I’m a totally different person… I’m sassier. I’m more confident as a blonde.”
That’s not to say a brunette Kardashian is any less powerful, though. In her opinion, brunette Kardashian is a “boss.” Add long nails to the equation, and she has what she refers to as “b—– boss energy.”
Kardashian famously dyed her hair blonde for the Met Gala to go withher Marilyn Monroe gown, saying inKylie Jenner’sMarried to the Metvideo that she would “risk getting my hair to fall out” to fully commit to the look.

Hairstylist Chris Appleton helped her complete the transformation, which took 14 hours. She toldVoguein May of preparing her hair for fashion’s biggest night, “I did want a physical change, too, so I thought I would wait and do it for this, so I’m spending a day straight dyeing my hair—14 hours straight!—to get it done.”
The mogul dedicates that same mentality to all aspects of her business empire, beauty routine and at-home life.

ShetellsAllurethat when it comes to her appearance and aging, she’s “at peace” with not being perfect.
“I hate my hands — they’re wrinkly and gross,” Kardashian, 41, shares in theAllurecover interview. “But I’ve lived life and I’ve changed so many diapers with these hands and I’ve snuggled my babies with these hands, so I’m okay with them. [Getting older] doesn’t mean that I won’t strive for perfection, but you get to a point where you’re like, ‘Okay, my health is more important than anything else.'”
But even though she knows the aging process is natural, it doesn’t mean that she won’t do everything in her power to look and feel young for as long as she can. “It’s hard to explain because I am at peace, but I would still do anything to look and feel youthful,” she added.

She makes time, though, because beauty is important to her — though she admitted that she’s never had filler in her cheeks or lips and she doesn’t have eyelash extensions. Kardashian just naturally looks that way. A bit of Botox in her forehead is all she has in her face.
“But I’ve chilled, actually,” she says of her Botox routine, doubling down that it’s all she’s done. “No filler. Never filled either one, ever,” she concludes when asked about her lips and cheeks.
