I Tried Online Color Analysis and Got Three Different Seasons—Here’s What Finally Worked

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but figuring out your color season should not feel like a personality crisis.

Yet, if you’ve spent any time deep in the world of seasonal color analysis, you know exactly how it goes:

🔹 Take a quiz. Get a result. Doubt everything.
🔹 Try another tool. Get a completely different result.
🔹 Hold random pieces of clothing up to your face in bad bathroom lighting, hoping for divine intervention.
🔹 Watch YouTube breakdowns, convince yourself you’re a Soft Autumn, then immediately panic because what if you’re actually a Soft Summer?
🔹 Spend hours scrolling color analysis forums where no one agrees, and half the comments start with “I’m not an expert, but…”

It’s fun! It’s chaotic! It’s also kind of maddening.

I know this because I lived it.

After getting three different online season results and one in-person analysis that didn’t feel quite right, I finally had a second draping session—this time, with better lighting, clearer comparisons, and a more trained eye. And guess what?

I’m a Soft Summer.

Not a Deep Autumn. Not a Deep Winter. Not a Cool Summer.

Just a regular ol’ Soft Summer.

The funny part? I never would have landed there on my own.

Why Online Color Analysis is So Frustrating

Here’s the thing—color analysis isn’t just science, it’s perception.

And online tools? They mostly rely on:

❌ Oversimplified quizzes that don’t consider contrast, depth, or how colors actually interact with your features.
❌ Flat color swatches that might look one way on screen but don’t account for real-world lighting.
❌ Low-tech AI filters that slap a season on you based on a single overexposed selfie.

So it’s no wonder people end up mis-typed, confused, and spiraling in a sea of contradicting advice.

That’s exactly why I kept second-guessing my results. The process wasn’t built for exploration—it was built for conclusions.

And when none of those conclusions felt right, I was left with a whole lot of doubt and zero actual clarity.

So… What Finally Worked?

What made my second in-person analysis so clear wasn’t just the trained eye—it was the process of real-time color comparison in proper lighting.

Seeing colors side by side made everything obvious.

• Warm vs. cool? Suddenly crystal clear.
• Deep vs. medium contrast? No longer a mystery.
• Why certain colors made me look “off,” even if they were technically in my palette? I finally got it.

And that’s when I realized—the problem with most online tools isn’t that they get it wrong. It’s that they don’t let you see for yourself.

A Smarter Way to Explore Your Colors

What if online color analysis wasn’t about slapping a seasonal label on you?

What if you could test colors in real-world lighting, compare palettes side by side, and actually see what enhances your features—without needing an expensive in-person session?

That’s exactly what we're building.

✔️ No more guessing—SEE the difference for yourself.
✔️ No one-size-fits-all quizzes—just real, AI-powered comparisons.
✔️ No vague color swatches—just YOU, in real colors, in real lighting.

You don’t have to struggle through weeks of second-guessing (or force yourself into a season that doesn’t feel right). Now, you can explore freely and get real, undeniable clarity.
