    Thank you for your advice 👏When colour draped decades ago, the colourist had extreme difficulty determining if I was a summer or spring. Now some say I’m Neutral, but I still struggle with summer/spring even as I age I guess I can use both season palates💕

    I thought I was light autumn as a young woman and became a light summer as I aged. Other channels state undertones don’t change so I felt unsure about where I fit. Last week, I was looking at my school portraits and realized I was a light autumn in the 10th grade because I was from So Cal and spent a lot of time at the beach. My family moved to OK and my 11th grade portrait screamed soft summer. All these years I thought the color difference was the quality of the camera or ink on the film but I recognize the pinkish skin and dark ashy blonde hair 46 years ago is very close to my coloring now. I am enjoying the process of learning the subtleties of the “why” behind observations I made long ago. I appreciate what you two bring to the color analysis discussion; you use descriptive words that clarify where summers can blur into autumn or spring. Thank you.

    I used to be a summer, soft and cool, and the lady that did my analysis told me I would become cooler with time. Which has happened as my hair is almost completely silver now. I look good in black, grey and blue. But I'm kind of lost, I'm a winter of sorts I think but, I need to redo an analysis.

  • @LB-ku6ry

    Your channel is my favorite! You both explain this so well! Thank you! I have concluded that I am a neutral leaning toward autumn. After you both talked about hair and eye color, I understood. My natural hair is very dark and and curly and is turning grey. I wear human hair bc I love that I can have longer, fuller, softer hair in any color that I want. I have started looking at the colors of the alternative hair and some of my brunettes are coco and some have red. The red looks stunning and rich. Now I know, that I am more autumn! Thank you! I’m in the process of getting another piece, and it’s going to be even more beautiful than my last price with the red. Yes, they are washed, colored, highlighted, and I like to style without heat bc the quality of the hair is gorgeous! I don’t want to ruin it. Have a beautiful and blessed day, Ladies! And thank you again!!!!
    PS I agree with you both about changing hair color and clothing. It’s very true. I have different colors for different hair. 😂

    I use pronunciation #1 of mauve. I might be totally off as English is not my first language.
    But it was a very interesting analysis. I have struggled with what soft means, but I think it’s clear that it describes my features. My eyes are a combination of greys, blues and some green and look different depending on the light. My hair contains all colours from light blonde to a darker brown. What confused me the most is that my hair often gets taken for being warm in the sun, but on the other side it never looks right if I put golden hair colour in it.

    Hey I am a soft summer but dark brown haired and with olive skin. I did a live colour analysis and even the Analyst was baffled. She said it is because I have so much grey in my skin colour and hair colour.
    What do you think? Is it possible for a mediterran type to be Soft summer?

    • @AmethystGlow-lg3tf
      @AmethystGlow-lg3tf 15 днів тому

      Yes. Because it depends on the skins undertone. Not on hair or something. That’s why your season CANNOT switch as the two said here. You can have a cool skin undertone if you are Mediterranean. Your hair color can change, but not the skin undertone. I changed my hair color so many times but I always was a cool summer. That’s why warm hair colors didn’t suit me as well. My natural hair is a level 6-5, so I am not a blonde too but a brown with a lot of ash undertones in my hair so it’s looking even darker. But I am a summer.
      Is seasons would change like a hair color it would be so easy to feel free to choose your season by switching the color of your hair and wear contacts for changing the color of your eyes to be the wanted season. But it’s not. They are talking about other aspects but ignoring the undertones of the skin a little but that is what color analysis is based on.

  • @JB-un2jo
    @JB-un2jo 22 дні тому +1

    I have to say, with someone who was born blonde and have very cool skin tone, the red or warm tones that DO pop up in a Summer are from the hair color itself. No matter how ash the highlights are, all hair color fades out warm, from hard water and other elements. My skin tone does not change so it looks awful. Purple shampoo saves me. I am dark and light ash blond with fair skin and light eyes.

    For awhile I had a very experimental hairdresser, who convinced me to try dyeing my graying hair shades of purple. She always kept it cool, but the colors I wore really varied upon the shades of purple…reddish purple, violet, or lilac, led me to the soft grayed hues, and the one time we tried more blue than purple I needed some of the deeper more intense red purples. And the one time we tried platinum blonde, it washed me out; apparently I need more contrast, which makes me think I’m soft rather than light.

My eyes don’t look blurred though. I have freckles. I’m confused what palette I’m in. The light blues and greens do look beautiful on me now and the autumn colors I used to wear don’t look as good.

    Hi! Soft Summer here! Now that I have my natural greyish hair, it is very blended. Not salt and pepper at all. I used to have ash blonde hair when younger, with a tinge of green. My hair used to look dark olive green! My eyes are olive green with a grey rim and some warmth around the pupil. Now that I have grey hair, I feel that way too soft colors make me look too pale. I need a little more saturation within my palette.

I have neutral leaning cool skin, clear light blue and yellow eyes - looking bright turquoise with a dark charcoal limbic ring, my hair is a mix of ash brown, and golden and red highlights now with some grey, its multidimensional so it looks ash brown (deep) but as soon as any light hits it, including indoor lighting it sunlight it looks golden or red in tone. I feel its really difficult to navigate colour analysis when there are naturally so many different colours involved! Your input would be truly amazing!!

Taupe, or a purpled grey/brown looks amazing. It was my best drape of the lot, actually. It was called pewter in the CMB tonal system, but I don’t know if anyone else would call it pewter. It’s not a straight grey.

    Im laughing at your "ish" conversation! I get "redish" or "blonde-ish", etc. when used as a suffix has a meaning of "kinda sorta", and that you shorten it to ish, but my Mom is from Minnesota and she grew up with the solo word "ish" meaning the same thing as "ick". Maybe your subscriber is from that frame of reference? That would explain why she prefers mousy 😆

    I am continually disappointed that you give a limited explanation for Summers. People of color can also be Summers and do not have to have blonde hair. Rihanna is a perfect example as she is a Summer. Please be more inclusive.
