HOW LONG DOES COLOUR ANALYSIS LAST FOR?

Colour Analysis last for around 1.5 hours. In that time I’ll discuss with you the science behind how it works, determine if you need warm or cool based colours, and then if you needs blended or vivid colours. Once your season is established, I will go through every colour within your palette and show you the very best colours for you within your season. I will also go through the best make up colours for you so you leave feeling incredible, have the knowledge for how to wear your best make up once you’re back home, and you will receive a Charlotte Tilbury discount.

HOW LONG DOES STYLE ANALYSIS LAST FOR?

Style Analysis last for around 2 - 2.5 hours. Within that time we will look at your personality and body type to determine how to dress you in a way that feels authentic to you, as well as flattering to your body and giving you the tools to dress in a way that maximises your confidence and makes you feel in control of your wardrobe, every day. I also go through blockers and barriers that have got in the way of you dressing how you’d like to, and I coach you on how to tackle this in a practical way moving forward.

DOES MY SEASON CHANGE IF I GET A TAN, WHEN I AGE OR WHEN I CHANGE MY HAIR COLOUR?

Your season is your season for life, that’s the beauty of Colour Analysis, it’s the gift that keeps on giving! It lasts you a lifetime which is why it’s the best money you’ll spend. You have many colours within your season, and some will be your best colours at the time of having your colours done, but when you get a tan, other colours within your palette may be even better for you and make your tan pop even more! This principle applies as you age, your season will stay the same, but the best colours for you within your palette may alter as your skin gets thinner. I can help you during this time to bring out the best colours within your palette, whatever age and stage, so you always look and feel your absolute best. Within the session, I discuss hair colour with you so you know what colours will work not just in what you wear, but also for your hair too - so you always have the tools to look incredible.

IF SOMEONE LOOKS LIKE ME, HAS THE SAME HAIR OR EYE COLOUR DOES THAT MEAN WE ARE THE SAME SEASON?

No! Just because someone looks like you, doesn’t mean anything. For example, if you have blue eyes and blonde hair - that doesn’t automatically make you a spring, you could be any season. The science behind it, and how I work with you to create your bespoke palette is much more technical than that, which is why having a fully trained professional doing your colours is much better than anything you read on the internet.

CAN I JUST USE AN APP, OR DO AN ONLINE COLOUR ANALYSIS?

No! Save your money! Online apps may have great adverts or give you a result, but it is impossible for it to guess what you are because it absolutely needs to be done in person. There are so many factors involved in getting you to your season, and an app ultimately is a computer and doesn’t have the ability to give you an accurate result. The same goes for online colour analysis - it is impossible for this to be accurate, no matter what the service provider tells you, save your money! Lighting isn’t accurate with online consultations, the white balance isn’t accurate, so the consultant won’t be able to do a correct reading, and it is heavily relying on you to do the work.

DO YOU DO ONLINE SESSIONS FOR STYLE ANALYSIS?

Absolutely! I have had many online clients for Style Analysis. Everything is exactly the same as in person, and I just post you what you need in advance of our session.

CAN I USE AI TO DETERMINE MY KIBBE STYLE ANALYSIS?

No! AI, online questionnaires, or your own research won’t give you an accurate result. AI gathers information that already exists on the internet and isn’t bespoke to you. Questionnaires don’t see the full picture of who you are, therefore don’t look at the full picture of the nuances of your body and features, and it doesn’t have the depth of knowledge or insight as a fully trained professional. Style Analysis is so intricate that you deserve to have it done properly. Online research will only take you so far, and there are so many other variables that direct you to your personal style - and your body is entirely unique so I work with your body and personality and tailor a bespoke style that is accurate and perfect for you. What sets my sessions apart from others, including online, is that within your style appointment, I apply my 13 years of coaching and mentoring expertise, and coach you in your thought processes, so you have a healthy outlook on who you are as a person and being confident in that, as well as delivering you a bespoke style package.

ARE YOU GOING TO TELL ME I CAN’T WEAR COLOURS OR STYLES THAT I LOVE?

No way! Other, more traditional consultants, will tell you that you can’t wear this or that, but not me! My sole purpose as an Image Consultant is to empower you. I will always give you your best shapes, colours, styles and looks, but I will never tell you that you ‘can’t’ do something. That would be very weird!
If you are desperate to wear a colour that isn’t in your season, dye your hair in a colour that might not be the best for you, or wear a style that is outside of the guidelines I give you, I won’t ever judge you or shame you! I only tell you what is your absolute best, and if you want to do something separate to that then you are fully empowered to do that, with the knowledge of the guidelines I give you during your session with me.

AM I TOO ‘PAST IT’ TO DRESS CONFIDENTLY OR STYLISHLY/I’VE JUST HAD A BABY AND MY BODY ISN’T THE SAME/I DON’T LOOK HOW I USED TO, CAN I STILL DO THIS/I DON’T HAVE THE BEST BODY IMAGE SO IS IT POINTLESS ME HAVING MY STYLE DONE?

Gosh as women we can be harsh to ourselves, can’t we! I hear so many versions of this question and I’m going to say this - you are enough. No matter your body, personality, life experience, age and stage. You’re not too big or small, young or old, quiet or loud, and you’re not too difficult of a client if you’ve had a baby and you’re not ‘yourself’. You are enough! So don’t let any insecurities or internal narratives get in the way of you feeling your best. In both Colour Analysis and Style Analysis, I work with you - every part of you - and help you to feel your best from the inside out. So although you’re asking questions about yourself right now, by the time you’ve left your appointment with me, your head will be high and you will feel incredible. I’ve seen it in all of my clients and it’s the best thing about the job!

DO YOU WORK WITH MEN?

Absolutely. Although women are my primary client, I absolutely love working with male clients.

WHERE ARE YOU BASED?

My location is 20 minutes away from York City Centre, and 45 minutes away from Leeds and Harrogate. I am very close to motorway networks and links.
