Are all olive skins cool?
Would I be Bright Cool Medium because of the softer eye?
Or would the softer eye make everything go to a Soft Cool Medium?
…or maybe not a cool at all?
Thank you!

Hi Donna
If you have pretty dark hair and medium skin, I would choose deep. Olive skin is not ALWAYS cool but I have noticed that dark earthy tones on olive skin just doesn’t work. The cooler tones seem to balance the green better. Your hazel eyes don’t necessarily mean bright or soft. I’ve seen bright hazel eyes and soft hazel eyes. Assuming you are cool and deep… do you wear bright jewel tones well? Do you wear white and black high contrast patterns? If your skin is medium with medium-dark hair, I’m thinking the bright high contrast color palette may be too strong. I would look at the soft cool deep color palette and add in some brighter colors as you’d like

I have light skin, dark/army green/hazel eyes, and 80% white hair. I don’t know what my natural hair color is, since I have been messing with it since me teens and started turning white around age 20. I am not sure how to answer the first question.

Your Color Style replied:
Since your hair is mostly white and your eyes sound medium. Choose medium
Jen
I recently paid for an online color analysis with another stylist and she gave me a very muted “True Summer” palette. I was really confused because many of the colors were really unflattering on me. I guess I’m technically muted, but most muted colors seem to wash me out. Your response to the other bright/light/cool question made a lot of sense: “If they were also muted you’d get greyed light colors which don’t really do anything for you. Most people who are light need a little brightness.”
Why is it that typical color analysis theory seems to get this wrong?

Your Color Style replied:
I’m so glad my explanation helped you. Seasonal color analysis does not offer training in color theory. So many well meaning consultants miss these nuances and bucket you in a season. This is one of the many reasons Your Color Style was created.

Hi Jen
I have salt and pepper hair and dark blue eyes with a yellow sunburst around the pupil. I think I’m deep but not sure. My skin is neither warm or cool or rather, it’s both. Could I be medium?

Your Color Style replied:
Hi Kate
If your hair is mostly dark with salt, up to 50/50 – I would choose deep If your hair tipping over to more salt than deep, you may want to choose medium
It is very common for people to not be obviously warm or cool. That doesn’t mean you have both undertones. You will still lean one way. You sound like you are cool. You are likely BCM or BCD
Jen
I selected “light” in step 1 of the quiz, and then “warm” in step 2. It automatically takes me to bright, warm, and light and doesn’t give me the option of soft, warm, and light. Why is that?
