One thing worth saying

  • People often associate Warm Autumn exclusively with redheads or obvious auburn coloring. In reality—especially when analyzing clients from East Asian, South Asian, African, Middle Eastern, Hispanic, Latina and mixed-heritage backgrounds—many Warm Autumns have naturally dark brown or almost black hair and brown eyes. The defining characteristics are obvious warmth, medium depth and softly rich, earthy coloring.
