It's Q&A Wednesday!
This is where I answer a question that a subscriber send me. My hope is that these questions and answers will help you learn what colors look best on you.
Question:
Is it possible to be deep soft and medium? I was typed as a soft winter. I have brown almost black hair and medium olive skin (medium value contrast, low color contrast), and I look great in some
light pastels and some winter true colors (true blue etc), but the deep colors look HORRIBLE on me and they are supposed to look great on Winters, so I am wondering is it possible to be medium instead of deep? Or is it possible to have dark hair and not be made for deep colors?
