i’ve found that both deep autumn and deep winter shades look the best on me but i want to hear what other people think. i believe i lean more towards autumn but i can’t tell whether i’m biased because i love brown/autumn colors, or if i’m actually a winter.

hopefully the pictures i included are enough!

Hair Color Advice (PHOTOS REQUIRED - NO MAKEUP!) Hair blindness? Should I stop trying to be so warm and light?

Thumbnail

14 Upvotes

I had a lot of helpful feedback in a season typing post, but I mainly wanted to know my season so I can know what to do with my hair.

I have brown hair with golden tones to it, and some people have even said I have some red in it too? I dont see the red, but I get that so often. I was golden blonde as a kid, and now my hair will get very very light in the summer, and I intentionally lay out in the sun to lighten it. However, I am very fair so I've been wondering if I have hair blindness and my hair gets too warm and light for me.

The first photo attached is NMIP from today. As you can see my roots have grown out since I've stopped laying out and I feel like it looks jank. The second is also today. The third is from mid summer the lightest its ever been, and the last two are it at its darkest.

Type Me! - Digital Drapes (FACE PHOTOS REQUIRED - NO MAKEUP!) Am I a Bright or Deep Winter?

• Upvotes

NMIP. I know that I’m a winter, I’m just a little unsure of which sub-season. My eyes are pretty dark, but my hair, eyebrows, and eyelashes are a light-medium brown (so not as dark by comparison). Cool winter drains me more as I lean more neutral than overtly cool. Thoughts?
BTW: I have no makeup on, but there are a few remaining lash extensions that haven’t fallen out so my eyelashes look a little darker than they normally would be.

Had a post a few days ago and trying now with real drapes which was difficult, I don’t have a lot of color. Consensus on my last post seemed to be winter but I also got summer and autumn. Tried to remove my hair as well (naturally silver and was dark brown before I embraced the gray). NMIP

Discussion (NO COVERT TYPING OR PHOTOS OF YOU!) Wedding rings

2 Upvotes

I see a lot if questions about wedding rings and undertone.
First, the metal on a wedding set is so small it really isn’t something to worry about.
With a white diamond the best setting is white gold/platinum to set off the stone.
However, for those of us that want gold there are settings that mitigate it by putting white gold around the diamond and the rest of the setting is gold or a combination.
Last, our seasons aren’t just cool-warm-neutral. All have an element of muted-light-dark-bright. So if your setting looks off chances are the metal is too bright, light ir dark.

Clothing or Makeup Recommendations (INCLUDE SEASON IN TITLE!) Color analysis result: Bright palette

3 Upvotes

I did a color analysis in Toronto with Elise who works directly under Carol Brailey. They use a broader color system and I was really looking forward to finding my season and learning how to dress. I received the color palette: Bright. This means I'm neutral and fall somewhere between Bright Spring and Bright Winter.

This has honestly felt really overwhelming because first off, I don't love Bright colors and because there's so little information out there on this neutral palette. Since it isn't common I'm not finding much inspiration from others in this palette.

Has anyone else been given this neutral palette? Does anyone have tips on what to wear?

Hi everyone! 😊

I would really appreciate some help with my color analysis. I suspect that I have a neutral to warm undertone and that I might be a Soft Autumn, but the more I read about it, the more confused I get!

I feel like I can see arguments for different seasons, and I’m having a hard time figuring out which colors truly suit me best.

I hope the lighting in my photos is good enough but please let me know if it isn’t!

I’d love to hear your thoughts on my undertone and which color season you think I might belong to. Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you so much for your help! ❤️ NMIP

Are any of the Acne multicolored scarves suitable for a cool summer palette?

These are ones I think are most likely but you can see the whole range here:

I went to get my hair for yesterday because I find my first few greys- my natural hair to my eyes always just looked like a neutral lighter brown, nothing remarkable, my skin has rosy tones, my eyes are soft blue. I always put myself in the summer family although I admit I never felt WOW

I was talking to the hairdresser and was saying I wanted some dimension adding but nothing extreme and that in the past I’ve found hairdressers get carried away and make me a very cool ashen blonde with more platinum highlights that just flattens me

She’s goes oh no, you have a lot of warmth to you you need honey and caramel….I was like say what? I thought I had cool undertones? And she said well she can’t be sure but let’s go for a warm honey tone with hint of red undertones and maybe at home I try it with olive, buttery yellow, cream and chocolate clothing as opposed to my usual blue and grey….

I get my hair done. It looks fab. On my walk to the bus stop I go by some clothes shops and I think I’ll go and try on those colours just to see, trying on is free.

Y’all.

I’m having an identity crisis.

Butter yellow? Hello? My skin was glowing, looked healthier

Then I tried on a light lilac jumper. Instant ick. I looked tired and dulled

I tried on my fave blue against an olive an I love blue but the olive looked SO good

I’m shook.

Big shout out to my hairdresser for seeing what I couldn’t!

(I ADDED DIGITAL DRAPES FOR WINTER, SUMMER AND AUTUMN PALLETTES)

I cannot tell if Im cool / warm but that might not be my dominant feature. I usually get compliments in navy and red colors though. I was wearing deep winter colors most of the time but the contrast is too much for me. Im pretty sure I look better in clear or bright colors compared to soft. Im on the deep side rather than light.

I would appreciate overall anlaysis of my softness, darkness and temperature. But if you want to think in color paletet system, Im considering true autumn, deep autumn, warm autumn, or cool winter or true spring.

I might add another batch with some jewelery because thats how I kind of realised cool tones do not suit me. I look better in bronze or rosegold jewelery.
