Hi there! I cannot wait to meet you and help with your Color Journey! Take the stress out of getting dressed. Gain confidence that will pay off for a lifetime.
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 occasions 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.
Cosmetics
Wall of Cosmetics- My studio is stocked full to bursting with high quality cosmetics 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 identify your season, there's 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, like a beautiful Symphony of Musical Notes.
Points of Interest
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, glitz, glamour and plenty of detail are some of my favorite things. Scale is great if its medium or even large.
Lotsa Colors to try!
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 - I absolutely 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. Now that I understand the RULES, I know how best to break them!
Choosing Cosmetics
Cosmetics application is in part tutorial. I will give you some helpful hints to make the products perform better for you. I will apply at times, but sometimes you will take over. 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.
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!
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, jean 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?
Color Analysis for Children under 13
Children enjoy an abbreviated service lasting about an hour. We will only bring him or her to season. At this age, they are in their season, but they most likely aren't fully developed into a particular subseason. We will analyze and create a light, positive fun environment for learning. The child gets to choose their favorite colors out of the season for their photo. We do not take a before shot and Color Swatch Fan is not included. A light makeup application is provided. Parent(s) or an adult are welcome to stay! This can be a fun group appointment for a girls day as well. Consider gifting an adult appointment to your child at age Sweet 16 or as a Graduation Gift, it gives them something to look forward to!

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.

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.

View TestimonialAn absolutely AMAZING experience with Dana Guy and House of Colour Franklin Central. I purchased a child's color consultation and makeup tutorial as a Christmas gift for my recently-turned, teenage daughter. As she is beginning to show an interest in wearing makeup and becoming more aware of the clothing she wears in public, it seemed like the perfect bridge into both. What I didn't expect was how much fun my daughter had with Dana during her sessions. Both she (and I) learned more than we ever knew about the colors one wears and how/which particular colors suit an individual better over others. Dana made my daughter and I both feel welcome and comfortable as guests from beginning to end. She took the time to thoroughly explain and demonstrate color and makeup schemes in a way my daughter could easily comprehend and replicate, and was more than attentive to my daughter's questions and feedback. As a parent who just sat back watching the two of them interact and having an absolute ball, a 2+ hour combined session seemed to whiz by, and my daughter left even more excited from her sessions than when she first arrived. Dana Guy is a true master of her trade, as well as one of the most personable human beings you will ever meet. Young or old, do not hesitate to contact her if you are in need of a truly delightful and informative makeup and/or color analysis consultation.

And then, even deeper to define which lengths, cuts, etc are best for my body type and play up my attributes. I feel like I have a playbook for my closet and a game plan for shopping. This investment in yourself will save you money in the long run and give you a confidence you will be happy to have found!

View TestimonialHi My name is Heather and I wanted to share how color and style analysis has changed my life, self esteem, perception and choices. As an artist and designer, I have a strong sense of color and temperature. I knew I was a warm palette. And I hated how I looked in black.
But it wasn’t until I went for my color analysis with my dear friend Dana of @hoc_franklincentral that I learned that I am an Autumn (Vibrant Blue Leaf )
My better than black is Dark Olive (a wow color for me-which you can see in the last slide).
Since my color consultation I’ve cleaned out all the colors not in my season, replaced all black and navy and white with the neutrals that suit my coloring. (Like Oyster, Marine Navy and Chocolate Brown). I get compliments all the time and I FEEL 10 years younger!! Having the best makeup from @houseofcolourusa is a game changer too!
And then in February I went in for a style analysis as well *cue phase two in closet clean-out.
I learned how my body architecture and my color personality work with my season to bring out the best in me and on me!
I discovered I’m a Natural Ingenue (NI) - which means I gravitate toward dainty prints, florals, comfortable, natural fibers and always feminine touches. Dana calls me a “woodland princess”.
I now feel like my truest, best self. For the first time in my life I’m comfortable in my own skin- not trying to follow trends or wear clothes that other’s suggest. When I shop, I’m no longer intimidated- I know exactly what I need and what I’m looking for. I have tools ????️ for fashion now. And I believe it’s given me the courage to do things this year I never would’ve done before! ????
Thank you Dana and House of Colour !

View TestimonialMy 2 daughters and I all had our color analysis done by Dana at House of Colour in Franklin. We had the most fabulous time! Dana was patient (it took us a while to see what she saw ????) and walked us through each step of identifying our skin tones and correct seasons. There were some surprises and some "well, of course" moments. We had a great time learning about our best makeup and hair colors, too. I can't recommend Dana and House of Colour highly enough!

View TestimonialDana was absolutely amazing—so fun, kind, and incredibly knowledgeable! From the moment I walked in, she made me feel completely comfortable and at ease. Her energy is so positive and welcoming, which made the entire experience feel special and enjoyable. I loved how she took the time to explain everything, from identifying my best colors to recommending jewelry, hair colors, and makeup shades that truly complement my skin tone.
What really stood out was that I never felt rushed; she was patient, attentive, and made sure I felt confident and excited about what I was learning. I left feeling inspired and so much more confident in my personal style. I can’t wait to go back for a styling session with her—highly recommend Dana to anyone wanting a fun, uplifting, and truly personalized experience!

View TestimonialI have to take a moment to tell you my experience this summer - my first summer of dressing in colors from my color wheel. I have never had so many compliments!
I have enjoyed shopping and knowing which colors I should focus on. Amazingly, most of the clothes I owned were in colors not on my color wheel. It helps to know which colors I should focus on for basics and what colors to use as accent pieces. It's definitely given me a boost in confidence.
I'm looking forward to shopping for fall and winter! Thank you so much!

View TestimonialFrom the moment I walked in her cheerfully colored door I felt so comfortable. Dana is excellent at what she does and executes it effortlessly. She ensures that you understand how and why you like (or hate lol) certain pieces and will give you a workbook that goes into more detail. I loved the online lookbook she set up to where I can click on the items to purchase directly. 100 percent worth every penny! Absolutely book her!!

View TestimonialMy adult daughter and I did this together over Thanksgiving and we had a wonderful morning with Dana. We learned a lot about our optimal colors and thoroughly enjoyed the process. One of us was already dressing in the proper colors and the other was not. Neither of us doing so deliberately, just based on the colors we personally liked. Dana showed us both how to select colors more purposefully. The pocket swatch book has actual fabric swatches and not just paint chips which I feel does affect the way light hits the color. Highly recommend!

View TestimonialI thought I might know my color season, but I had to know for sure! Dana was just the right person to provide a professional analysis to confirm my season, identify my best colors and help select makeup to complement all my colors. We had so much fun, and I walked away with seasonal clarity to shape my wardrobe for the future! Even if you think you *might* know - the color insights & makeup tips Dana offers are worth their weight in gold (or silver, if you are a winter ????).

View TestimonialPart 1:
I’ve always wanted to have my colors done professionally. Online color matches aren’t reliable, and led me to think I’m an Autumn. I have a closet full of clothes that look gorgeous on the hangers but when I put them on, they wash me out or just don’t pop. Now I know why! I spent a couple hours with Dana and watched as the deep Summer palette literally CHANGED my face and lit me up. I’d been wearing mostly warm, bright colors, but the color analysis revealed that I look much better in cool, soft shades. This really surprised me and opened up so many color choices I’d never considered before. Dana made fantastic recommendations for hair color, jewelry, and accessories that will be a lot of fun to experiment with.
Dana’s warmth made me feel at ease. Her pep is infectious—you’ll leave with a huge smile on your face 😊 If you’re considering whether to make an appointment, don’t hesitate! It’s enlightening and super fun! Go with a friend! A session with Dana is a treat you shouldn’t pass up, and would make a lovely gift for anyone.
I’m a middle-aged lady, tall, sturdy, and shaped like a refrigerator box. Since turning 50, I’ve struggled to figure out how to dress myself in a way that flatters my new shape. A few events over the holidays had me feeling anxious because I didn’t have anything to wear and didn’t know where to start. I thought a change on the outside might help me adjust my attitude. I met with Dana for a color session, and to my surprise, left with a bunch of makeup, even though I never wear anything other than mascara and lip balm. There was no high-pressure sales pitch – I was just genuinely shocked at how different I looked wearing shades that complement my coloring. I absolutely love everything I purchased from House of Colour! Dana showed me how to apply each product and gave me lots of tips. I still only wear makeup occasionally, but when I do, I now know exactly what to use, have an array of color choices to change things up, and I feel confident knowing the shades suit me, work together, and look natural. The products have gorgeous pigment, are easy to use, and haven’t irritated my skin or caused any breakouts.

On my second session with Dana, she took my measurements, had me try on different styles, asked me questions about my personality and preferences, and gave me some excellent pointers for what kinds of styles to wear, neckline, waistline, length, cut, drape, fit. She even suggested stores where I might have some luck finding things I like in my size. That was enough to get me into a store. I HATE clothes shopping and usually do it online. But with some basic information, I easily found jeans that fit well and looked great. I knew exactly what to look for and what to avoid, and quickly picked out a couple of tops in colors, fabrics, shapes, lengths and styles that worked nicely for me. Shopping usually drains me, but in less than an hour, I’d picked up exactly what I needed for the events coming up AND I felt energized! Dana even sold me some jewelry I’d tried on and loved during our style session. She followed up with a thorough report filled with ideas to help me choose clothes going forward.
The color analysis and style sessions with Dana made a huge difference. I didn’t need anything fancy, complicated, or high fashion – I just wanted to feel comfortable and not look dowdy so I could have fun, be present, and get out of my head. All this great information solved the simple problem of not knowing how to dress myself. It was a dumb little thing causing me a lot of unnecessary anxiety. Feeling comfortable in my clothes and touched up with a bit of makeup shifts the focus from thinking about myself and my nerves to thinking about my friends and enjoying my time with them. Dana has been a life-changer for me! ???? I’m excited to work with her on building a capsule wardrobe in flattering Summer colors and styles ????

View TestimonialI had been interested in having a color analysis for a long time and had done some research on my own. I was gifted a color consultation with Dana. It was a great experience! Dana is so knowledgeable about color and really took her time to find my color season. I’m already using what she taught me to look at my current wardrobe and pick what looks best on me. Her makeup suggestions were also spot on. I have been so happy with the makeup I took home-probably because it was the right shade for me! 10/10 Recommend!
