Hello! My name is Dana Guy. I am blessed to have had my colors analysed in fall of 2022. That day marked the start of an adventure for me.


Dana Guy

Well Hello There!

Welcome to House of Colour Franklin Central! Tell me all about your color and fashion journey. I want to know all about what brought you here and if you have any concerns. Do you have any occassions coming up that you are excited about? I cannot wait to help you find just the right colors to wear to that event. We want this experience to instill in you ultimate confidence in your appearance. With time, your eye will become more judicious as it takes in colors and will detect the temperatures better. You will have your handy color fan as well to guide you + your season's key words.

Makeup

Wall of Makeup- My studio is stocked full to bursting with high quality makeup curated just for you!! This is manufactured to EU standards, with your safety in mind. We have a plethora of colors and tones, these are segmented into seasons, so once we have your season, we will have a pool of resources to choose from for each item. It is the most fun part of the appointment! The colors will look great on you, but once we get you into just the right makeup, your beauty will be enhanced further. It is a great combination of all the right elements coming together. 

Dana Guy

Points of Interest

Hi there! I absolutely LOVE print, texture and bling! The jewelry and accessories we call those "Points of Interest" in your Style Class. As a Romantic Natural, I love glitz, glamour and plenty of detail, and the scale is great if its medium or even large. 

Dana Guy

Lotsa Colors to try!

Photo credit: Katie Evans Photography - I am ready to welcome you to House of Colour Franklin Central! We will chat a bit then get down to business and start to drape you to find your best colors! We will get you into season, then look at your wows to determine your specific subseason. Then it is 90 second makeup! Most of these options you can take home with you today to wear right away. And you will also have 2 valuable tools at hand, a color fan and a book chock full of helpful hints and information to answer many of your questions which will come along now and also later 😊

Look in the mirror with me

This young lady had her colors done on her BirthDay! Her daughter had a great experience, and was kind enough to surprise Mom! She had no idea why she was standing in my foyer, until I told her!! It was a joy to figure out her season. After sitting in the princess chair for a bit over an hour we declared this beautiful lady an Autumn! See the harmony? Those colors are the best out of the 36 colors in her fan. We rate each color, so that you know what is the very best on you.

Wearing wow colors

Photo credit: Katie Evans Photography - Burnished winters get to mix metals a bit. I enjoy the variety this gives me as I do love me some bling! With my salt and pepper hair, the blended metals and burnished tones work very well.

Choosing Makeup

Choosing lipsticks - Our lipsticks are so moisturizing! All makeup is made to EU standards so you can be assured it is safe. So many colors to choose from and everything is separated into seasons so that you know what you pick will look great on you, every time.

Rachel's Testimony:

I recently had my color analysis done, it was the best decision I ever made! I always struggled to tell if I was cool or warm, and it turns out I'm cool toned with a warm overtone, which I don't think I would have ever figured out on my own without the help of Dana, who is an absolute gem!  Her analysis put me in the burnished winter category, which made so much sense for my complexion (Dana defined it as "burnt, edgy Snow White", which is so accurate, lol!) This subgroup puts me on the edge of winter/autumn meaning dark, rich colors like navy, burgundy make me shine. Surprisingly, almost all the icy colors also looked great, which shocked me! I could genuinely talk about all this all day. I thought it was SO interesting, and Dana is exceptionally talented and well-versed in everything, so ask her all the questions! This was a game changer, and if you're like me and want to shop sustainably and get as much use out of your clothes as possible, then I cannot recommend her enough! I feel so confident now in every single thing I wear! It also transcends clothes, it has heped inmmensly with makeup, sunglasses, nails and accessories! Book with Dana and become your best glowiest self!

In Person Training

Amazing group of Stylists! These ladies are from all over the country and took the life changing step of becoming Color Analysts!

Damson and Mole-what's that?

Damson shown with Mole - I discovered both these colors during analysis. When she pulled out that Mole drape I looked at her and said "Oh I don't like brown". Well guess what??? Mole sure does like me!! This has been a very useful color to put with icy colors (which I adore) and also just as a medium intensity neutral. It works well with my skintone and hair color. Damson I would have told you is an autumn color! Now that my eye is trained, it is one of my very favorite colors to wear. Instant drama! It's a head-turner. 

Dana Guy

My analysis Before/After

My draping experience was incredible! It was so powerful to watch the reaction my skin had to the colors. It is something you cannot unsee! I discovered colors I really didn't think were winter or that were in my world at all, and they are some of my very best. I have many Sultry & Burnished colors, but I also love some of the jewels and a few sprinter ones. This gives me great variety for wows! What I tend to do is wear more of the deeper tones in the cooler months and then pull out more brights as we near summer. Don't ever let anyone tell you that you cannot wear ALL your season's colors. You most certainly can! It is just that some are "wowier" than others. Use them all. Tools, not rules!

Dana Guy

Shopping Links

Purple is my favorite color. This athleisure dress is from a brand that I am an affiliate for. So guess what? After we determine your season and get you in the best makeup for you, you'll get some handy shopping links in your followup email from me! They sort by season!! No more guesswork! I'll also include a hair color image board, jeans color recommendations and other useful info, specifically for YOU.

Beige is not my color!

Wow?

        Dark emerald is much better, can you see the harmony?

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!

I completed a color analysis with Dana just over a month ago. I express how seriously I mean that this process CHANGED MY LIFE. I truly went from frumpy, self-conscious mom to getting up excited to get ready again.

She listened to my concerns, walked me through the process, encouraged me when I was outside of my comfort zone, and continues to follow-up to make sure I'm loving my colors.

I know it's an investment, but it's worth it and you'll in fact save money not buying clothes you hate. DO IT.

Do this! 

Dana is a day maker.  Her demeanor is uplifting and her ability to decipher your best colors is astounding.  Dana is a professional and an educator on all things color. She loves her job, and it shows in her spirit and humor.

My best season was suggested many years ago, therefore I was skeptical when Dana found something very different.  So, she took extra time to confirm her findings until I could see it for myself and fully agreed with her. Now, I’m happiest in these new-found color choices and shopping for clothes is easier and more efficient. Again, do this!  You’ll be glad you did.
