Colour analysis

Hi!

I have always tried to use the colours that best suit me but never had a proper color analysis done by a professional. I analysed myself, if that makes sense...and I think I am (or was) a spring.

I stopped dying my hair a year ago and my hair is now grey. I am quite happy with my grey hair and I have embraced it totally, but I feel I have to make more of an effort now and I think using the right colors is now more important.

I am thinking about having a color analysis done and I have heard about House of colour, but seems quite pricey...does anyone know of any good alternatives That are a bit cheaper? Can you recommend someone? I am in South London

I used Emily innes - style me happy on Instagram. I found it excellent. Best £40 I've spent in a long time. I'm a light summer and wearing the light cool colours make me look so much better.

Was that online?
I really wanted to do something face to face...even though £40 is quite tempting

I did mine with Emily Innes online too and was happy with it.

You send some photos and then, about two weeks later, she'll send you a PDF with what your season is, the colours in your palette, then also what your best and worst colours to wear are plus recommendations for hair colour, lipstick, eye makeup. I found it really helpful and have a screenshot of the colours saved on my phone for when I'm shopping online or out and about.

She's on instagram (emilyinnesstylist) and posts lots of bits there, which can also be helpful once you know your season.
