Color Analysis (aka What's Your Season?)
Say goodbye to screens, filters, and guesswork — nothing compares to the real thing. In today's world of quick online quizzes and virtual drapes, true seasonal color analysis shines brightest in person, under natural light, where subtle undertones, skin reactions, and that unmistakable "glow" reveal themselves with perfect clarity. Only here — in a dedicated, light-filled studio — can we drape House of Colours' custom dyed fabrics right against your skin, watch how colors make your eyes sparkle and your complexion come alive, and fine-tune your exact season with zero digital distortion.
Whether you chose to make this a bubbly Girls Day Out, a unique date, a sweet Mom-and-Me afternoon, or a quiet private appointment, your time will be transformative and deeply personal. You'll leave with more than a color palette...you will own that rare, confident "this is me" glow that photos and apps simply can't capture.

Groups of 2, 3 or 4 may be booked online—just click the Book Now button at the top of the page. Interested in a larger group? No problem! Contact me directly and we'll schedule the perfect day.
Makeup For Every Season
House of Colour® created our makeup line to perfectly match each season because finding shades that truly flatter you shouldn’t be a struggle. When your makeup aligns with your natural undertones, it brings out your best features and gives you that effortless glow. And because it’s formulated in the UK, you can feel good knowing it’s a clean, carefully crafted line—so you get colors that love you back.
Included in every women's Color Analysis appointment is the complimentary introduction to a few of our skincare products—SPF50 Tinted Sunscreen and our Revelation Primer. We'll discuss your current makeup routine and find the perfect foundation and concealer colors, too. Most importantly, we'll demonstrate the appropriate blush, mascara and lip colors for YOUR season.
Our skincare and cosmetics are available to purchase in our studio or on our website. You don't HAVE to have your colors done to make a purchase, BUT you'll receive 30% off makeup for your lifetime when you have your colors done! Shop with complete confidence, knowing you're investing in clean products that compliment your undertones beautifully.
Style Analysis
Imagine stepping into a session where your unique body geometry—the natural lines, curves, angles, and proportions of your frame—meets the vibrant essence of your personality, from bold and dramatic to soft and romantic, playful and eclectic, or quietly elegant. In a personalized style analysis, we blend these two powerful elements into a cohesive clothing style that truly reflects the real you: outfits that flatter your silhouette effortlessly, honor your energy, and make you feel authentically confident every single day. No generic trends or one-size-fits-all rules—just a custom wardrobe blueprint designed around your body's architecture and your inner spark, so getting dressed becomes an expression of who you are, not a compromise. The transformation is profound, radiant, and entirely yours.
Click Book Now at the top of this page to schedule your appointment. Groups of 2 available. This appointment may be combined with a Color Analysis for a truly transformative day. Contact me directly to book aa combo appointment.

Wardrobe Edit
You've had your colors and/or style done but are struggling to find the time to clean out your closet? Let me at it! I'll evaluate your garments, shoes, jewelry, and accessories, collect the items that do not align with your personal brand, and leave you with a wardrobe that fit your lifestyle, color season, and clothing personality. Whether you goal is to curate a capsule wardrobe or you're just ready to freshen up your closet, this appointment will give you a great head start.
Wardrobe Edit can be added to a Style Analysis appointment, both of which can be completed in your home. This appointment can be conducted as a learning exercise in which I walk you through putting your color fan and clothing personality to use; or, I can sort your items independently for you.
NOTE: This is not a closet makeover and does not include the implementation of any organizing systems, shelving, boxing, hangers, or setup. This appointment is strictly about evaluating the items you currently own and making sure they fit your color and style profiles. We recommend this appointment after both Color AND Style appointments have been completed; however, this appointment may be provided after one or the other. Discarded items can be left for you to sell/donate, or I can remove them for you and dispose of at my discretion.
Advanced Color Analysis
Dive deeper into your season's makeup, Points of Red, and color combination ideas for clothing and outfits. The purpose of Advanced Color is to give you more insight into your seasonal palette and inspire you to try color combinations you might not have considered after your initial Color Analysis. It's a great refresher on your hues, and it expands your knowledge of how the colors of your season can be put together harmoniously. Advanced Color must be done a minimum of 3 months after your original Color Analysis so you have time to live in your season for a little while before going deeper.
Only booked as a private session.
Beyond 90-Second Makeup
House of Colour® offers a full line of cosmetics we simply don'tt have time to explore during Color Analysis and Advanced Color appointments. In a Beyond 90-Second Makeup session, you get to try on more shades/types of lip products, eye shadows, eyeliners, liquid foundations, illuminators, etc... as well as practice application techniques.
Other Services
Makeup Shop
Quicker than a Full Makeup Session, this appointment gets you 30 minutes of private shopping in the studio. Try on a new lip color for spring, match a foundation to your new summer tan, or try out a new product you've been thinking about. Trying to find the perfect lip for a special occasion? Bring your dress, grab a cup of coffee and we'll figure out the perfect lip color together!
Personal Shopping
In person shopping or design boards for you with shoppable links. Must have had color and style analysis already completed. 2 hour minimum at $85 per hour. Design boards will be for 50 items in your season style.
Additional Personal Shopping Hours $85.00 / hr
WOW Color Re-Rating
Although your season never changes, sometimes your WOW colors change or subseason shifts. House of Colour® recommends our Color Analysis clients return to the studio for a Color Re-Rating if you have made significant changes to your outward appearance (such as a drastic hair color change) to see if any of your best colors need to be adjusted.
The House of Colour Athens, AL studio is easy to find in historic, downtown Athens, in a 2-story brick building on the corner of Madison and Market Streets.
I share the House of Colour Athens, AL studio with fellow image consultant (and steadfast friend!!) Kate Webb. We strive to make your time with us invigorating and pleasant, with a fully stocked coffee/tea bar, water and snacks. We have extra seating if you'd like to bring a friend even if he/she is not scheduled for an appointment; however, we do ask that you keep yourself the priority and avoid bringing small children who may need your attention. If you're coming from out of town, we hope you'll make a day of it and visit the nearby boutiques, antique stores, and restaurants downtown Athens has to offer.

Color Analysis
Color Analysis
-
Get dressed every day with purpose, ease, and JOY! A color analysis provides you with life-changing information. Using precision-dyed drapes and my extensive training I will prove to you the value of knowing your season; a palette of colors customized to your unique undertones. We apply this information to women, men, and children of all races, ethnicities, and genders. Your season will never change so this is information you can carry with you for a lifetime.
There are three parts to every color session. First is our world-class, scientific draping process that we have refined for excellence and accuracy over the past four decades. Next, I will provide advice on jewellery, watches, glasses, and when applicable: hair and makeup based on your season. Our makeup products will take the guesswork out of choosing colors that highlight your natural beauty. Finally, we'll dive further into your season and choose the best colors for your casual and professional life, discovering your list of WOW colors.
You will leave your appointment with a fan of your seasonal swatches and a brochure full of tips and reminders specific to you that you can reference later to make shopping and wearing your new colors a confident experience!
You should arrive at your analysis free of spray tans and makeup for optimal accuracy. No pictures will be taken without permission, nor are they shared on social media without your consent.
Group discounts available. Appointment must be performed during daylight hours.
Style Analysis
-
Discover the science behind personal style by unlocking the power of you. During a style analysis, I'll teach you how to combine who you are with how you dress so you can step out into the world looking fabulous as your authentic self. We consider your proportions, personality, and preferences to give you a style framework- we call this a “Clothing Personality. You will confidently know which fabrics, prints, patterns, and accessories, necklines, details, and silhouettes flatter your unique body architecture best. Because we factor your personality into this framework, our style analysis goes a step further to help you identify how you feel in different styles and pieces so your clothing not only looks great but also represents who you are.
For this appointment, you’ll bring 5–10 items from your closet that you LOVE and 5–10 that make you wonder why you don’t feel good when putting them on. We'll use this information to help you discover why you gravitated toward and loved certain pieces and what it is about the others that weren't working for you, so you save time and money in the future! At House of Colour, we believe clothing needs to be adjusted to you, not the other way around. It is our goal to make sure you feel your most confident as who you are and how you look right now.
You’ll leave with a book with detailed information specific to you that we'll fill out during the appointment and a Clothing Personality card with keywords that will help guide you when shopping. If you've already had a color analysis, this card can be inserted into your fan which will make shopping easy and efficient!
Group discounts available. Combination Syle Analysis and Wardrobe Edit appointments in your home are available on the booking page.
Advanced Color Analysis
-
Advanced Color Analysis is an opportunity revisit your season, refresh your seasonal color knowledge and build upon the foundation of your personal color analysis. It’s something you may want to explore at least three to six months after your initial House of Colour color analysis (I am happy to discuss ideal timing with you).
During this appointment, we'll dive deeper into the specifics of your season and show you color combos, and more makeup options, and provide guidance specific to you.
You will leave your appointment with an Advanced Color guide in your season where we will log all color and make up combinations (we rate them too!) for future reference. You may pair this guide with your fan and color brochure you received at your first color analysis to further customize your look.
Sessions take approximately two to three hours and we will review 40+ color combinations in your season.
Wardrobe Edit
-
This appointment is designed to take the knowledge you gained in your color and/or style appointment and apply it to your own specific wardrobe. I will help you filter through the pieces you don't wear so you can donate them and provide joy to someone else and keep your own closet free from clutter so you can better mix and match pieces in your wardrobe to create more looks with fewer items.
This appointment is called a Wardrobe Edit on the Booking Page. This service may be booked after Color Analysis or Style Analysis; however, booking this after having both Color AND Style will be the most efficient use of this appointment.

View TestimonialFor a little more than the cost of a hair appointment, I get to have a “good hair day” every day because now I know how to ask for what I need from my stylist. And shopping is so much easier with my color fan. I never thought I'd say “shopping is fun” but it really IS now!

View TestimonialThis [House of Colour®] makeup is great! I especially love how the primer smooths out my skin, and the blush and eye colors really brought out my features. I haven't worn mascara in years because they always smudge but this one with the mascara primer STAYED PUT! This will definitely be my go-to line of makeup in future.
