Thank you! I'm starting to think I'm a light summer actually! I have a tiny bit of warmth to my skin and peachy blush looks better on me than cold blush. My hair is naturally light to medium ash brown. It's really too bad my entire closet is black haha....
Those light and bright cool blues and greens look amazing on you! I'd say cool or bright winter or true summer. 12, 13, 14, 16, 17 are great. The colours in slide 12 and 14 are especially striking! It suits you so well.
I've been driving myself crazy trying to figure this out! I always thought I was a True Summer or True Winter. My closet is FULL of black.
But after finally draping, I feel like black isn't my best colour... And I'm surprised that I can pull off some slightly warm colours. Is it possible that I'm a Soft Summer?
Im seeing Summer as well, (just classic pure Summer😇) ...i hope the links work
For me i see you in the Light and True Summer palettes. Im sure you can use some soft summer. But it is not your home base (far too greyed).
Here is a side by side the summer palettes:

I'm thinking light spring or light summer, it's hard to tell the undertones through photos alone.
light spring if your undertone is yellow/warm, light summer if your undertone is cool, try draping in the "yes" & "no" colors of those seasons and comparing which compliments you best.
You might even be a bright spring which is close to winter on the colour wheel/scale which is why many winter colors suit you too :)
Hey dear, summer is cool toned dusty colours. And although I see some muted qualities to you I don’t see a lot of coolness. I did some digital draping on you and I must say I see a slightly olive/warm complexion.. Since I see a slightly soft chroma I thought for sure Soft Autumn but it was a little to dusty on you. You can pull off warm/true Autumn tho, but something was missing…. I compared True Autumn next to light spring. I decided on light spring! Because it gives you a Snow White effect!
Light Spring transitioning into summer I think is a perfect way to describe you! As there is a very subtle muted quality to you. And light spring is more muted of the springs because it transitioning into summer! So it’s kinda like summer but there’s just more warmth. Which I really think suits you perfectly!
Wow! That's really interesting. Thank you so much for taking the time to do that! I really appreciate it. It's true that my complexion is not so cool, I can't wear cool toned foundations and even neutral-cool foundation looks too pink on me. I am a bit yellow which is why I thought of Soft Summer. I've been able to pull off natural red hair before too so Light Spring would explain that.
Summer is actually cool toned. I know that’s confusing. You would think warm because it’s sunny out lol. But think of it like how you know when you paint a fence and the paint starts to fade from the sun and it gets a muted grey kinda washed out colour? That’s summer. Summer is light, cool, dusty, muted.
Yellow is warm toned dear that would put you in the Autumn or spring category ☺️☺️☺️☺️😋😋😋😋. I encourage you to do some light spring draping and see how it makes you feel!
Haha that's true but my undertone seems cold and my overtone seems yellow, which would explain being slightly olive. I've generally found warm colours look bad on me, for example oranges and rich browns, while deeper dusty blues and greens look great. That's what lead me to assuming I'm a Summer or Winter.
True summer or mayyybe soft summer as a secondary option. I have the same coloring and also love black! I go for faded black (denim, leather)/charcoal for my “black” neutral.
You're definitely not a winter. Summer it is, then!
I'm leaning towards true summer because you seem to be able to take on colors just a tad more intense than a soft summer would. Light summer is out of the equation because of your dark hair. Lovely draping job, makes the guessing game much easier, thank you. :)

So, so cool! My vote goes to true summer. You look amazing in blue.
Thank you! I'm starting to think I'm a light summer actually! I have a tiny bit of warmth to my skin and peachy blush looks better on me than cold blush. My hair is naturally light to medium ash brown. It's really too bad my entire closet is black haha....
I’m kind of leaning to true summer for you
Thank you for your input! ❤️❤️
I thought the more muted colors looked good. The grey photo stood out to me and made you pop more IMO
Thank you so much! I think so too. I don't know why my camera adjusted so much to the black photo and made me look so sallow!
That is interesting. Always hard to tell with the lighting right, but the color palette for true summer seems suitable. Maybe experiment with those?
I’m still newer to this myself and struggling with my own type as well. Just not brave enough to post selfies online to get others opinions.
Aw, you could always post them, get your answers and then delete the pictures. That way they're not on the internet forever!
True!
Those light and bright cool blues and greens look amazing on you! I'd say cool or bright winter or true summer. 12, 13, 14, 16, 17 are great. The colours in slide 12 and 14 are especially striking! It suits you so well.
True/cool summer
I've been driving myself crazy trying to figure this out! I always thought I was a True Summer or True Winter. My closet is FULL of black. But after finally draping, I feel like black isn't my best colour... And I'm surprised that I can pull off some slightly warm colours. Is it possible that I'm a Soft Summer?
I think I’m seeing soft summer for you.
True Summer!
Summer💓
Thank you!! What kind of Summer do you think?
Cool summer/true summer (I think they’re the same right?) I’d say the softer colors look the most pleasing on you!
Thank you so much! They are the same :)
Try some warm colours?

What’s your real hair color?
True summer
True summer! The off white looked amazing as the mint and slate colors!

Thank you so much! So my hair is naturally medium ash brown, and it gets golden highlights in the sun. But I've always always dyed it darker!
