Seasonal Color Analysis
Seasonal color analysis sorts your natural coloring into one of four seasons (Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter) based on three things: undertone (warm or cool), depth (light or deep) and contrast between your hair, skin and eyes. Answer eight questions to find your season and sub-season, with a palette of colors to wear.

The four seasons
| Season | Undertone | Depth | Contrast | Best colors |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | Warm | Light to medium | Medium to high | Clear, warm brights: coral, peach, warm green |
| Summer | Cool | Light to medium | Low to medium | Soft, cool, muted: dusty rose, lavender, soft blue |
| Autumn | Warm | Medium to deep | Low to medium | Rich, warm, muted: rust, olive, mustard |
| Winter | Cool | Deep or high contrast | High | Clear, cool, saturated: true red, emerald, black, white |
Sub-seasons
Each season has three sub-seasons (for example Light, Warm and Clear Spring) depending on which quality is strongest. That gives the popular 12-season system.
How to get the most accurate result
Answer based on your natural hair color, without makeup, in daylight. A professional draping session in person is the gold standard; this quiz gets you close.
Frequently asked questions
What season am I in color analysis?
Take the quiz: it scores your undertone, depth and contrast and maps them to Spring, Summer, Autumn or Winter plus a sub-season.
Can my season change?
Your natural coloring is stable, but dyed hair or a tan can change which colors look best on you for a while.
