Can I belong to two or more Color Seasons?: The answer

The eternal question. Not finding your color season or thinking that you have two or even three seasons. If this happens to you, you are reading the right blog and I tell you why.

In case you think you have two seasons, or that you belong to two different seasons such as Summer and Winter, Autumn and Spring, or you may even think that you belong to two seasons combining a warm season and a cool season like Summer and Autumn, it may be due to several factors:

• Errors in color analysis: whether a stylist has done the seasonal color analysis for you, or if you have done it yourself for yourself, there may be errors. These errors would derive from the poor establishment of the evaluation of the chroma, hue and value parameters of the colors of your hair, skin, eyes and eyebrows. So in this case these values would need to be re-evaluated.

  The fact that the values have been evaluated poorly may be due to a difficulty that you or your stylist has in knowing how hair, skin, eyes and eyebrows are classified in each of the values. Or if you have analyzed yourself through a photograph, the colors have been distorted by the light or the camera's color capture. Here I recommend taking several photographs and a video to be able to capture well what colors you have.

• Various colors in your hair: if your hair is dyed with various colors in your hair like highlights and you maintain several colors in your hair then it will be difficult for you to evaluate yourself. However in me Hair Color Analysis Kit you will be able to establish the color parameters of your hair and determine exactly what your hair is like. Here you have to take into account the amount of hair color you have of one tone and another. Because if one tone is cool and the other is warm, you are going to have problems determining the season of your hair if you don't know if cool or warm predominates.

  If your hair is natural and changes color in the light then there may be a problem. In particular, the problem lies in whether your hair in sunlight or strong light changes to warm, while in the shade it changes to cool. Here I recommend taking the season of the hair color in normal light, and adding secondary microtones of the season of your hair color in sunlight to your palette.

• Not knowing if your skin is warm or cool: your skin is cool or warm is going to greatly influence the result of the color analysis. There are many techniques to know how to categorize your skin, and I explain many of them in my Skin Color Analysis Guide. But you have to keep in mind that if your skin is not obviously warm, it will be cool skin. You need to know if you are warm or cool, and you cannot define yourself as neutral if you want to know your season.

• Eyes change color: It sounds strange to say that eyes change color. But, just like hair, when light hits you, your eyes can change color. This especially happens with brown eyes. It is normal for brown eyes to look lighter in sunlight as I explain in my Eye Color Analysis Guide. But we must always take our eyes as they are seen in normal light, that is, dark. In this case, the eyes are not as relevant as the hair, and we only have to choose the color palette of the eyes that do not receive light as strong as sunlight. So if your eyes are dark and cool when there is normal light, that's how they will be taken for colorimetry. They will not take your eyes with the color they look like when the sun shines on us.

• Not knowing if your skin is soft or bright: you may have skin that has elements that make it look soft. But if you go tan and those elements are almost not appreciated. Or even if you are not dark, these elements such as freckles or spots are barely noticeable, your skin will be bright and not soft.

In summary, these are some of the most common errors that will make you think that you are from several seasons, and you should take them into account, because if you have an analysis error you may think that you are from two seasons instead of just one.

In my case, I am a person who in normal light looks like a Cool Winter season, but as soon as the light hits me, my hair and eyes look lighter like a Soft Summer season. So we could think that I am two seasons, even several more if we take into account that depending on the light I can look warm or cool. This is something that happens to many people with brown hair and eyes.

The optimal thing in this case is to choose the colors of the season in which we see each other the most. That is, if most of the time, in different lights you look cooler than warm, brighter than soft, darker than light, then those are the values you should take. Then you can add specific elements to your look with the following seasons in which you have the highest score.

You can discover these results in my seasonal calculator, where the scores of all the seasons will appear and you will be able to see what colors you can Add more to your accessories to complement your main season.

The answer in summary is no: you cannot belong to two seasons, nor to several seasons at the same time. You may have analyzed yourself incorrectly or change the season depending on the light, but you will always have a main season, and the tones of the light will be very secondary and specific.

I hope this has helped you. I know it's difficult to figure out your own season. Especially in cases where your colors change with the light or you have various hair colors due to highlights. Although there are people to whom this does not happen because they do not have reflections and have light eyes, then there are hardly any color variations.
