What an in person session includes
A typical in person session lasts one to three hours. The analyst seats you in neutral light, covers your hair and clothing, and drapes dozens of fabric swatches under your face. Many include a fabric swatch book of your colors, makeup suggestions and wardrobe advice.
It is the most precise method, but also the most expensive and the hardest to book. Find options on our color analysis near me page.

Online and virtual color analysis
Online options have improved a lot. A good quiz measures the same three traits an analyst checks: hue, value and chroma. A virtual try-on then shows you the colors on your own face, so you can confirm the result yourself.
Our color analysis quiz is free, and the AI color analysis report is coming soon.
Is a paid color analysis worth it?
- Worth it if you are rebuilding your wardrobe, you are between two seasons, or you want the full in person experience.
- Start free if you are curious, on a budget or want to test the idea first.
Smart path: take the free quiz, try the colors on your selfie, and only pay for an in person session if you are still unsure.
