One thing worth saying

  • People often describe Light Springs as exclusively blonde with blue or green eyes. In practice—especially when analyzing clients from East Asian, South Asian, African, Middle Eastern, Hispanic, Latina and mixed-heritage backgrounds—you'll find many Light Springs with naturally light-to-medium golden brown hair and warm brown eyes. The defining characteristics are light value, gentle warmth, fresh clarity and delicate luminosity, not a specific hair or eye color.
