Big besos from España and thank you

First I would like to say congrats for your amazing performance on the [fabulous colour analysis] course. Second, I would love to say thanks for giving to us the opportunity to have 3 coaching calls with you, for me it’s more than a treasure! Let me tell you that I’ve studied with others previously and it’s been very, very interesting to contrast the different ways and I’m enjoying and understanding too, that the more I know, the more I still have to learn so I would love to prepare some very important questions for you. I can’t lose this opportunity! Big besos from España and thank you again for everything!

Sincere support and encouragement

I recently purchased your online course Fabulous Colour and have learned so much after just the first day. I'm gearing up to put myself out there as a color consultant. I'm 50 years old and I'm having a 'do-over' in my life. Your no-nonsense attitude and sincere support are not only encouraging, but also inspiring.

Total fan of tonal system

Hi Kim, just ordered the Seasonal and Tonal System Training. After watching your videos on colour analysis, I had an epiphany and realised that I had been using the seasonal system just because I hadn’t understood the potential of the tonal system. Now I’m a total fan of the tonal system – it allows me to see and appreciate the first dominants of a woman and, after that, check my observations with the drapes. I just love it!

Colour psychology in action

Having just watched the Colour Psychology Course has been helpful to get a bit more from it all, see it [colour psychology] in action and the potential that is there, not only with the quiz, but in various other forms of psychology too as ideas to think about to add in later. I still need to go thru all the resources, so I'm sure I'll get some more direction after that too.

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.

Articulated beautifully

Hello Kim, I would like to say that everything I have purchased has been extremely useful. The [colour analysis training in a box] course was very clear and articulated beautifully for me. Thank you.

Find myself analysing everyone

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? [recommended draping kit] Also i really need one of those turning drape stands. Can you buy them online? [drape stand]

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.

The queen of colour

I spoke to Kim for the first time earlier having completed my online training. I'd described my 'call' to friends as a 'test' but it couldn't have been more relaxed. Kim was full of great ideas and advice, I could have carried on talking forever. Thank you Kim. Great to talk to you, the queen of colour!

Exactly what I’ve been looking for

Hello Kim, I have been absorbed in your Colour Analysis Training videos and find them to be fantastic and exactly what I have been looking for, for over 40 years! In part 8 you do a Personality Questionnaire, could I please have a copy of these to use? Thanks. Kim’s reply – Amanda, the quiz together with the answers are in the online training resources included with your course, just login and scan down the document list.

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.

Huge fan of your training

Dear Kim, I am a huge fan of your training and blogs and I have gained a lot from undertaking the training both personally and for my business. Whilst I find colour clients rarely ask about my training, I do find business people and journalists in particular do, so would it be possible to have certificates for the colour analysis training and the advanced colour analysis training too please? [all training includes certification] I can then display them in my studio and it gives the journalists a perspective for their articles.

Such wonderful courses

Dear Kim, I would firstly like to say thank you for such wonderful courses. I have just completed my Colour Analysis and Ladies Style courses and training manuals and both courses were so informative and enjoyable. I just need to get going now and gosh, I am so nervous! I absolutely love colour as I am qualified in Colour Healing Therapy and I love the psychology of it all, so am looking forward to applying my new skills.
