    Boy is it fabulous

    Hi Kim, after having my second son I am finally getting through all the videos in the Fabulous Colour Analysis course - and boy is it fabulous! I'm so enjoying refreshing my skills and knowledge in this way. I'm the kind of learner who likes hearing things again in a different way to consolidate and confirm, and to see things perhaps from a different angle. So thank you!

    You help in every which way

    Thank you so much, thank you. I am so very glad to have received my Colour Analysis training under your guidance. It’s amazing how you help in every which way. Thank you for giving out real life examples to help me with my doubt. It really explains well that we can’t and should not have any fixed rules in colour analysis unless a colour gives confidence and looks fabulous near the face of a person. And I completely agree that we cannot convince our clients to wear only the colours that appear in the swatch wallet. In fact, I did tell her to go ahead and wear black as it suits her a lot. Thank you so much again, the idea of no fixed rules really helps in clearing my confusion. As you always keep repeating, colour is subjective.

    No more procrastinating

    First of all I wanted to say how much I enjoyed the Colour Yourself Fabulous sessions! I've loved colour analysis for more years than I care to remember but have only ever dabbled and never taken it beyond an interest, that is until now. When I found out that you were offering the tonal system training with the option to pay in monthly instalments I thought - no more procrastinating, time to get my kit and caboodle in gear!

    Refreshing alternative

    Kim taught me so much about the image business. Her color analysis classes along with style, personal shopping, and other courses such as color personality were foundational to my training. Love it that she always says to give the client what she wants! Such a refreshing alternative to some training companies with their strict and rigid rules! Join the adventure, and take your training with Kim!

    Already earned back half the course fee

    Thank you for all your help so far. I can't tell you how much I'm enjoying colour and each client has been over the moon. They've been telling everyone they know which has lead to more and more clients.  Your idea of the costs has been great - I have already earned back half the [fabulous colour analysis] course fee!  I’ve also booked the Advanced Training which I'm really looking forward to.

    Your enthusiasm was infectious

    A huge thanks for the Advance Training day it was fantastic. Your enthusiasm was infectious and your drive to ensure we all do well was so encouraging. My mind has been a complete whirl since with so many ideas and plans, along with welding my drapes at any willing victim to help with my learning. Also the ability to meet so many other really friendly consultants was so helpful.

    Hi Kim, Thank you for the great introduction on Colour Analysis. I am finding myself analysing everyone as they walk past me. It’s driving me crazy! I am a Hair Colourist/Makeup Artist so have a great understanding and will be starting this as part of my business. What drapes should I start with?

    I have just finished my training on Colour Analysis by watching the video set. Everything was perfect and I found you very brilliant the way you have put the subject matter. I will soon be ordering my Seasonal Drape Set and Seasonal Wallets from your wholesale catalogue. I will start practicing on family and friends as soon as I receive them. I can hardly wait, as I am so enthusiastic about it. Thank you again Kim, for this opportunity of opening new doors in my life.

    Enthusiasm and knowledge inspiring

    Thanks so much for the [colour analysis] course last week. I thoroughly enjoyed the time with you. Your enthusiasm and knowledge is inspiring. My brain has been on overload for the last few days. I got the file out this morning and went over the notes. It's starting to slot into place. Whilst watching TV over the weekend it was impossible to not try to guess which season people were! Celebs are rather confusing because they change their hair colour! I would love to do additional training with you. Please keep me informed of future courses. I have to thank you again. Your method of teaching and your flexibility in attitude already has left me feeling so much more confident in my abilities.
