    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!

    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]

    Everything was perfect

    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.

    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.

    Hi Kim, I keep dipping in and out of my fabulous colour analysis it is a useful reminder and easy to access when I need it. I'm enjoying using my knowledge at work with customers and the design team. I wanted to learn about colour analysis because I find it fascinating. Thank you so much for your easy style of learning, I'm so much more confident than I was before gaining 'The knowledge'.

    Slow baby steps at first

    I have just finished listening to the 4th module of Colour Yourself Fabulous. I know that I will go back and listen and watch again to help the valuable information to sink in and get a handle on everything. I have taken the step and decided that yes this is what I want to do, to enjoy and enlighten other ladies on the joy of colour. These will be slow baby steps at first, but I am so excited on taking these steps. Thank you Kim for making me smile and for the enjoyable conversation yesterday.

    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.

    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.

    You get what you pay for

    I recently purchased Colour Analysis in a Box and want to say thank you very much for offering it at such a great price. I recently did colour analysis training with a company in South Africa because it was affordable (i.e. cheap!). You get what you pay for! I learnt so much more from your first session than I did the entire course! I think your course is brilliant and very inspiring. I will soon be setting up my business and feel so much more confident about it now. I will be ordering my supplies from you and just have a couple of questions before I do so. Thank you and I'm looking forward to doing business with you.
