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.
Whether by yourself or with a group of friends/family come and learnt he colours that best compliment your natural coloring
We will drape you in our precision dyed drapes and you will see the trasnformation for yourself.
Each appointment includes makeup application in your best colors. All of our makeup meets strict EU standards and is the most important take away from your appointment.
You will also receive a booklet filled with information to guide you in best practices for your coloring along wiht a fan filled with the colors of your season that you cna use for shopping and cleaning out your closet
You will also receive acess to the HOCLookBook which is the easy button to shopping pieces in your season as well as putting outfits together using the pieces you already own
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!
If colour is king then that makes Style the Queen! As important as it is to know the colors that look best on you, it is even more important to know how to wear those colors
We work with your body architecture, personality and lifestyle to customize a Style for you that honors your unque needs and desires. Dealing with proportion and balance you will receive concrete ways to dress your body in a way that looks pulled together and reflects your auntentic personality as well as fit within the needs of your lifestyle.
You will receive one of 23 Style Personalities that gives you the details on how to add points of interest that work for you rather than against you. From the best hair styles to cut of jacket to type of jean to scale of jewelry we cover it all!
You will also receive a list of "stya away from this" to make sure you are only looking at pieces that harmonize with your body
You will recive a print out of your style personality, a followup email with detailed notes from your session and an inspiration board filled with visual images of the looks that are best for you
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.
Once you have completed a Colour Analysis with a HOC Consultant you are invited to come back in for Advanced Colour.
Advanced Colour is a deep dive into your season with a more individal and expansive makeup look, along with your top colour combinations so that you get the most out of your color palette.
This is the perfect gift for anyone who has completed Colour Analysis, wants to master their season or needs a little inspiration to live thier best color-filled life

I had wanted to get my colors done for quite some time but really struggled with the "Is it worth the money"? After finally meeting with Lisa, I can tell you it absolutely was! I learned so much from her. I changed my hair color, how I do my makeup along with makeup colors and of course added a lot of colors in I never used to wear. Since then, I have received more compliment on how pretty I look or my clothes than I have since I was in my 20's! I also gave this to my sister-in-law for a gift and she too has changed so much and looks better than ever. If you are considering it, honestly don't hesitate. It is worth every penny.

After lots of research on color analysis I decided to take the next step and schedule with Lisa at HOC Madison. Going into it I didn’t know what to expect. Walking out I felt energized and had the first tool for shopping for myself—knowing my colors! Being someone who likes efficiency and always struggled with shopping/picking out clothes, this was life changing. I now go into a store and look for my summer colors. If I find them I look at the style and fit. If it works I get it, if not I pass it up. That leads me to another service Lisa offers, style analysis. Before style analysis, I would pick clothes that looked good on others and then wonder why they didn’t look good on me! Now I’m able to look at the cut of the clothing and know if it will work! Shopping is so much easier now and I even find myself enjoying it. Last but not least at your color appointment you learn your 90 sec makeup routine with your 3 points of red lipstick colors. It’s amazing how much your looks change by just throwing on a little lipstick! Overall an amazing experience and I would totally recommend Lisa!

I had such a great experience with Lisa of House of Colour Madison. After thinking about getting color analysis done for a while, I scheduled an in-person color session for myself, my mom and my sister. We each learned about our wow colors, better than black colors and were amazed at how much of a difference the right color clothing and makeup can make. Lisa was so personable and kind and took the time to explain everything she was looking for, compare, take pictures and has answered many of our questions even in the months following our service. Highly recommend everyone get their colors done with House of Colour!
