What is the key to success?

To help others to become successful.

What better way to help others become more successful than to teach them how to look and feel their best in their personal and professional lives.

My guest this week is Julie Cunningham: Entrepreneur, Image Consultant and Educator.

In 1993, Julie Cunningham taught me how to see the world of COLOR in powerful, new ways. The information Julie shared with me changed the direction of my career as a hairdesigner. I would now like to introduce you to one of my dearest and beautiful mentors...

OUR PHILOSOPHY
Julie Cunningham Color is dedicated to the total development of each person’s image potential. We believe achieving this goal of personal image attainment brings forth our finest personality characteristics and imparts confidence in every individual, as well as creating personal appearance organization unparalleled by other systems. To achieve our goal we follow this belief system:

COLOR ANALYSIS is a transforming process that imparts a radiance and credibility achieved no other way. It is the heart and soul of our system, it is based on strong color theory, and is grounded in the belief that each person is perfect exactly as they are.

MAKEUP is an essential part of an excellent color analysis program and is prescribed based on the same theories of personal harmony. Makeup chosen and applied properly enhances the person and looks natural. The person, the makeup, and the wardrobe create a synergism resulting in a total image enhancement that is achieved no other way. All women can learn to comfortably and beautifully use makeup.

INDIVIDUAL STYLE is a natural progression after color analysis. Style combines the unique personal coloring, physical characteristics, and personality essence of each person in one effective visual package. Each one of us has a wonderful style that is based on our individuality and can be developed using theories of harmony, color, design & personality. Style evolves and improves with age.

WARDROBE DEVELOPMENT SKILLS are integral to a good image and are based both on color theory and personal lifestyle. Dressing well is an art that can be taught, but accurate wardrobe knowledge is seldom distributed as it runs counter to the prevailing retail sales mentality. We remedy this unfortunate situation by teaching practical, personalized wardrobing guidelines.

ACCESSORY SKILLS are the crucial finishing touch to any personal image and give the polish and personality for which we strive. Correct accessories particularly flatter and strengthen the head and shoulders. Accessory skills are based on artistic principles which anyone can master, but few are taught.

IMAGE PROFESSIONALS charge appropriate fees. We are theory based, not product driven, image professionals. We have a reason for every bit of advice we offer our clients, based on principles of design, line, color, shape, and personality type. We charge appropriate fees for the personalized services that we offer.

Image consulting, done correctly, is a transforming, confidence building gift to others. We do it because we love to strengthen, improve and beautify both our own lives and those of our clients. Using the above philosophy achieves this result and gives purpose to our daily work.

COLOR ANALYSISHere I demonstrate for Rachel how the color swatch (in the photo to the left) drains her and how the color swatch (in the photo to the right) harmonizes with her natural skin tones and eye color.











MAKE UPJulie once told me, "If a woman uses the right colors with her make up, she can't put it on wrong. If she uses the wrong colors, she can't put it on right." Have you ever seen a woman follow her lipstick into a room? Unfortunately, this takes place far to often.


INDIVIDUAL STYLEIn the photo below, Genesis Medical Esthetician, Leah Giesy, is my example of how Individualized Style Analysis translates into understanding each woman's uniqueness and femininity of beauty.

Naturally curved Body Type - drape/wrap looks fantastic.
Bold Autumn - looks beautiful in rich, warm colors.
Romantic Style Personality - looks incredibly sexy in long hair.


WARDROBE DEVELOPMENT SKILLSStatistics suggest, most women wear about 10% of what's in their closet. By learning color theory and personal lifestyle, the 44 colors in your seasonal palette can add new dimensions to enhance your image.


ACCESSORY SKILLSIt's all in the details... Shayla's delicate coloration is enhanced even more by the background in this photo.
