I mean, I have a machine called a "color analyzer," but it > hardly requires a class to use it... is this some new popular psychology? Since I have had several queries about this, I am posting the answer. Color Analysis has to do with looking at a person's features such as eye color, hair color, skin tones, and such, and how they relate to one another, and, from this analysis, assigning a color class to that person. There are several methods of defining the color classes. The most common one uses the four seasons, while others may have six or more classes. There are no solid dividing lines. A person is usually one season with undertones of another season. All of this is then used to come up with a "color palate" that is a collection of the colors that are supposed to accent your best features and downplay your weaker ones. Then, when you go to buy clothes, you use this guide to pick out the colors that are right for you. It's supposed to keep you from wasting money on stuff that's just going to hang in your closet for a couple of years before you give it to Goodwill, unworn. I know it sounds somewhat narcissistic (not to mention "faggy"), but it is kind of interesting and, like I said, a lot of women are really "into" it. Later & Greater, Gregg Mackenzie denelcor!gmack
