My passion is helping others feel confident and authentic by uncovering the colors and styles that highlight your natural beauty. With color and style analysis, getting dressed becomes simple, fun, and empowering! So you can start each day with confidence and ease!
Hey friends, I’m Naphtali and I’m so glad you’re here!
I got my colors done early on in 2020 and it really changed my life! I walked into my appointment being really confident I already knew my season. I had been a hair color specialist for 18 years. So when it came to analyzing people’s eyes, hair color and skin tone, I thought I knew it all!
During my appointment I learned there were many gaps in my own understanding of personal coloring. It truly blew me away when I saw the process with my own eyes. Guess what… I was not accurate in my assessment of what my season was.
When I had my style class I was again blown away by the depth of information I received that was life changing for me! It has been such a fun journey to know how to dress my body confidently, as well as pairing that with displaying my personality through my wardrobe. I have NEVER felt like a more authentic version of myself than I do now!
I can’t wait to meet you & share these amazing experiences with you to help you build confidence in Color & Style too!
My goal is to equip you with knowledge that lasts a lifetime—so you can shop with ease, love your wardrobe, and feel authentically confident in every setting.
Color and style analysis is more than just choosing outfits. It’s about discovering how the right shades and shapes can simplify your life and amplify your confidence. I’ll guide you through a personalized process that reveals:
The colors that make your skin glow, your eyes sparkle, and your natural features stand out. Including your most flattering hair color, makeup shades, and clothing colors.
The clothing styles that highlight your unique body shape, proportions, and personality. So you always feel comfortable, confident, and put together.
Simple tools and techniques that make shopping easier, getting dressed faster, and creating outfits more joyful every single day.

The Studio at Blend and Bright
When I had my Colour analysis done I was pretty confident I knew what I was doing when it came to analyzing people’s eyes, hair color & skin tone.
But my own color analysis appointment showed me that there were many gaps in my own understanding of personal coloring, it truly blew me away when I saw the process with my own eyes.
When I saw how powerful, scientific, and extensive the House of Colour process was I knew that day that I needed to learn EVERYTHING I possibly could about it!
I love education & furthering my knowledge of ANYTHING about color. So far I’ve loved every minute of my experience with House of Colour!

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.
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!
