Had my colours done with Gabi sometime ago. Her professionalism is outstanding and I can not express enough how grateful I am for her help. Gabi is super talented, I learnt so much from her and really enjoyed her company More...

I had a colour analysis with Gabi a few months ago and besides being an incredibly knowledgeable person she was also one of the warmest people I've ever met. She makes you feel completely at ease from the second you walk through the door. My scepticism at not being able to see anything quickly melted away when she started going through the analysis. She took as much time as was needed for the draping session and nothing ever felt hurried. She explained what she was seeing in detail to really get me to understand the nuances. And before you know it I could see when my face looked yellow, my eyes had gray bags with the wrong colours or when I had a pretty healthy rested glow when the right colours were present. My result was an absolute surprise to me and I was far off trying to analyse myself. She is incredibly professional and rigorous in performing the analysis, which was done in a light and colour controlled room. The appointment might seems expensive in the first instance but I can honestly say the analysis has payed for itself over and over as I completely know what to shop for now and make far fewer mistakes. She even got me to start wearing lipstick which I've always hated, but turns out I just wasn't picking the right colours.Do yourself a huge favour and book an appointment with her! More...

Gabi is an extremely professional and rigorous person as well as being very close and fun. She immediately makes you feel like you've known her all your life. Also, at the time of my analysis, she had not received yet the fans of my colors and sent it to me in very few days without any additional cost.The whole analysis process is perfectly designed and Gabi clearly explains each step so that it is understandable by someone who has no idea of color harmony (like me!). Her understanding of color is above that of most mortals and her ability to teach others is nothing short of that of a university professor (scientific approach included). Furthermore, it is easy to see that she is passionate about helping other people to find themselves better on their skin. It is incredible how on arriving at her studio you are unable to see any difference between the colors and, thanks to her expert vision, at the end of the session you can recognise which colors mark the dark circles, which highlight your imperfections and which are the ones that make you shine.It may initially seem like a large outlay of money, but its short-term value is incalculable. Now I do not doubt what color suits me best when I go shopping for clothes or makeup. I take my color fan and that's it! Years of headaches solved in four wonderful hours of self-care.I cannot be more thankful to Gabi for saving me so much time and frustration, as well as teach me how to feel good again wearing lipstick. Definitely, a life-changing experience, 100% recommended! More...

Having previously been ‘diagnosed’ as two other seasons, I approached the session with some scepticism even though I had had a very effusive recommendation from somebody whose opinion I really trust. The process took hours but Gabi was so friendly and knowledgeable that it whizzed by. I couldn’t see some of the differences in colours at first but Gabi help tune my eye in to whether my dark circles stood out more (an easier one for me to spot), or I looked sallow or blotchy. Since wearing the colours in my palette, my skin appears clearer and I look like I’ve had loads more sleep (i haven’t). As a bonus, I always preferred ‘my’ colour palette to previous ones I had been told I should wear. It’s an expensive morning but, I think, totally worth it. More...

Don't let the fact that Gabi is new to colour analysis put you off. Her colour 'eye' is incredible. Nothing is too much trouble for her and in our time together she helped me to see how colour affected me in a whole new light. Super friendly and professional. Highly recommend her services! More...

I had the most brilliant time with Gabi, who is an extraordinarily good judge of colour as well as a lovely person. I was with her for hours, and the time whizzed by as it was all so much fun. I could not have wished for a better draping experience: not only do I now know for sure which season is mine, but I also know exactly where within that season my particular colouring falls, which explains why I can only wear some of the lipsticks other BW people wear, and a hundred other details like this.

Gabi made sure I understood every part of the draping and, although I began by making snap judgements based on my previous feelings about colours, it was magical to see with her how the contrasting drapes revealed better or worse options, narrowing down eventually to my two or three best seasons. Everything was compared with everything else and, even though I thought I knew a lot about colour analysis, I learnt a great deal throughout the time I was with Gabi. I was so surprised for instance that colours that are too soft for me can actually look 'too bright' near my face. The effects of the wrong colours tell you as much as the effects of the right ones and the whole process was fascinating. Despite my Summery appearance, I happen to be placed very centrally within my BW season, which is great to know in itself, but I also know that if I ever need to appear formidable and strict without losing myself completely, I can dip into True Winter.

I believe that we in the UK are so lucky to have Gabi here: she has an unimaginably nuanced eye for detail and is hugely talented at what she does and at communicating it.

Gabiella, I don't know how many hours we spent analysing and talking, but it was one of my best experiences ever! you were born to this kind of stuff. I still cannot believe I'm on the cooler side but it makes all sense to me now.
All the best, I want to recommend your services to everyone.

I cannot speak highly enough of Gabi and her incredibly talented eye for colour. I had the most exciting experience watching her work her magic. It was, quite literally, like watching myself slowly come into focus as she methodically worked her way through the drapes in a standardised and logical manner, explaining and showing each step of the way what effects she was seeing in my face in reaction to each drape, and what clues that gave us about my colouring. The story unfolded before my eyes, as I watched the definition snap into place on my face, the skin clear, the eyes deepen and brighten. It has to be seen to be believed, and for me I am convinced it will be nothing short of life-changing. I am thrilled with my bright winter colours. I think this is about so much more than finding your best colours. It is about finding, acknowledging and accepting the truth about yourself. What an incredible gift to give yourself, and what a talented woman Gabi is. More...

My mind is still spinning from my session with Gabi. I learned so much in four hours with her and it changed the way I thought about how colours work together and how they look on me. I was so impressed with her eye for colour - I wish I had it - and she took a systematic approach to finding the right colours for me: Bright Winter. It will take me a long time to put all that I learned into practice, and I think that's a good thing as it shows the depth of the whole process. The colour analysis was a gift to myself and it was well worth it - thank you Gabi! More...

Gabi has a natural talent for colour analysis, and is very detailed. She was passionate about finding where I sat in the colour wheel and went the extra mile to seek the truth. Gabi explained her findings very clearly, and has kept in touch and given me useful tips since. Gabi has a modern approach to colour analysis. I am so grateful to Gabi for giving me this knowledge, which means I look my best and save money and time. If you are considering having colour analysis I highly recommend Gabi at Chromology.

Gabi is not only funny, accommodating and welcoming, she is extremely meticulous and precise in seeing / understanding how colours work with each person and why. I enjoyed every minute of my appointment. I previously knew certain colours weren't great, but being a self confessed colour geek :) I wanted to know why, and see the results with my own eyes. The process is both fun and enlightening! There is nothing Gabi can't answer. Her knowledge and understanding of colour is on a whole different level! Gabi is a skilled teacher and is passionate about empowering others with her expertise. I left having being taught how to refine my eye and with a lifetime worth of knowledge. This is invaluable. Suddenly I can scan over websites and see what is most likely to work. I went lipstick shopping and for the first time ever, found some that worked! Everything I pick up just 'harmonises.' This saves time, money... frustration!!! :) I am extremely grateful to Gabi for equipping me with much knowledge and highly recommend her to all. More...

Recently had an amazing session with Gabi. She is incredibly thorough and understanding and we went through all the colours meticulously. I had previously been draped as a light summer but had felt it wasn't quite right particularly when it came to wearing too many light colours together and the make up was off. Gabi helped me see that bright winter was so right for me and how much I needed those brighter colours, which when I think about it, were the ones that people always complimented me on. After going through all the drapes, we then looked at hair, jewellery, glasses and make up and I am so pleased with the results. Gabi recommended make up shades that I wouldn't have normally worn and I am amazed at the difference! Would thoroughly recommend Chromology and I am so pleased I went. More...

I had a Colour Analysis with Gabi and was absolutely blown away by the impact of the various palettes on my skin. I already work with Colour Energies and how having certain colours in your environment can be useful, and had the view that all colours are relevant and useful based on your mood. I was curious about my colour palette but didn't intend to make any changes to my wardrobe. However, as Gabi said, once you see the impact certain colours have under the natural daylight bulbs, you can't 'un-see' it!! Gabi has a natural, confident style with her work that made me feel at ease, and her feedback is always guidance and one of inclusion, so I didn't feel like something was being 'done' to me. Gabi was also very chilled about how I wanted to take away the information and use it in my own world on my terms. After the session, I immediately noticed the clothes and accessories in my wardrobe that support my Bright Winter palette and started reaching for those...some of which I have never worn! It's automatic and fun and refreshing!Even if you think you know how to dress for your shape, what suits you and what your style is (like me!!), I would still recommend having a consultation with Gabi, as it helps you see your world in a completely different way....loved it!!

Chromology is a thing - who knew? Well, I didn't but I do now. I rather skeptically took an appointment after a referral from a friend, as I wanted to bolster my person appeal/brand and buying confidence (Yes I hate shopping). Boy the appointment was so much more than that!! As someone who pretty much only wore black and couldn't see me in anything much more vibrant, I was very surprised to see what the colour pallet of garments actually did for me.So I have to tell you, not only have I now an array of colour in my wardrobe, but I can actually feel different wearing those colours and that means more confidence and sometimes even a little more cheeky.The session I went to, was lovely. Gabriella was so accommodating and explained everything she was preparing and some of the reasoning behind it. There are things you'd never have thought about the aesthetic output of you as a person, that can be built in with a little thought. The tones and how that enhanced personal features become really obvious.This was a great way to spend some time reflecting and thus, considering what to buy and what that might give off. Gabriella really understands her craft and brings so much knowledge to the table, and you kinda feel you understand yourself a little better. This is a break from the norm for me, but a lovely way to slow the pace down and bring a little colour into your day and in the end a lot more and a lot longer. It may not have been a man thing but guys, trust.....get some of this, it's worth the buzz you'll get and I promise results! More...

I drive clients to and from the station for Chromology and I used to find it unbelievable how over the moon every single person seems after their colour consultation. The more clients I chauffeured the more curious I became, and so eventually both me and my girlfriend booked in. I can tell you that my Mandy is very pretty already, but I've never seen her so beautiful as when she looked after the makeover with Gabi!Fantastic confidence building for men and women alike, truly recommend it!
