COLOUR CONSULTATIONS - what clients have to say ... Back to Top

I received the colour wallet today thank you very much. Can't wait to start using it! I really enjoyed the colour appointment …. Now I'm interested in a style consultation. Naomi Feather. Jesmond.  Newcastle upon Tyne

The Colour Consultation was a very pleasant and informative experience. It gives scope to give yourself a confidence and mood boost, but no pressure to make any unnecessary expenditure. Rita French. Sunderland

Thought you'd like to know how I'm getting on with my new colour swatch book…. I have found it really useful in concentrating my attention on what colours like me rather than on my favourite colours. In the long run I think it will prove to make my shopping more economical in that there will be fewer errors. Ann Spiers. Oakham

Thank you for a fantastic consultation - you made me feel important and that I mattered to you….. having an expert take the time to see what a difference colour can make to my appearance has boosted my confidence and I'm told that I look younger! Edith Rawlinson. Riding Mill. Northumberland

I did not really know what to expect from the day spent with you and prior to meeting you I was not convinced that this would work for me. How wrong can you be. I was extremely surprised to see how colour really did change the way I looked and now I really feel and look so much better - I can't wait to experiment Name and address supplied

Wardrobe Workout
I thoroughly enjoyed our session together - could have gone on for another couple of hours had we not had other constraints! Since your visit I've found it much easier to put things together and to find what I have - thank you! Lady Darrington. Slaley. Northumberland

"A session with Jenny, whether on colour or revamping your wardrobe, is great fun as well as tremendously practical. She has the skills to tell you things about your body that you need to know in a way that makes sense and is easy to accept. Much better than Trinny and Susannah!" Nicola Reasbeck. Wall. Northumberland

"I am still buzzing from yesterday morning's most enjoyable session exploring colours with you. Thank you for your help and expert advice so professionally and humorously given. I am most happy to recommend. It was all great fun." Annie MacDonald. Garrigill. Cumbria.

"I found my colour session both relaxing and informative. Not only was I made to feel perfectly comfortable and at ease but had my own opinion considered at all times during the consultation. I found it really interesting to see how different colours affect the tone of your skin and the way you look. I came away knowing exactly what colours I should and should not wear and received a wallet containing swatches of all the colours chosen for my skin type and colouring. I was even advised as to what colour jewellery and lipstick suit me best. I would recommend a colour session to anyone." Ann-Marie Pick. Hexham. Northumberland.

"Thank you for a lovely afternoon ... I found the colour diagnosis most interesting." Jacque Moran-Parker Darras Hall. Ponteland.

"Thank you for a super colour day! Pat Merridrew. Heddon on the Wall. Tyne & Wear. "Thanks for a colour boost. I shall now try to extend my colour range ... all from your encouragement." Barbara Segul. Hexham. Northumberland.

"Thank you so much for the lovely time spent with me, it was most refreshing, enlightening and enjoyable." Hazel Urban. Washington.

"....the colour summary, swatch and guidelines have arrived safely today. It made me once more think back to the fantastic and - more to the point - enlightening day I had at your house. The in-depth analysis as to which colours I should use for clothes, make-up and hair made me look again at my present wardrobe and I can assure you that there will be some changes made in the not too distant future ... I look forward to meeting with you again soon ... will you recognise me I wonder?" Ute Walker Newcastle - upon - Tyne

" I know there are cheaper colour consultations out there because I shopped around but nothing could have been better than this two hours of fun, information and me time. I left with a colour wallet entirely designed around me and a life time understanding of how colours work and the right ones for me. No more wasting money on clothes, jewellery, specs, makeup and hair colouring that don't make me look my very best. Thank you. Why didn't I do this sooner?" Helen Mooney. Wirral. Cheshire.

"......having someone's undivided attention and having the focus just on me, made it a very enjoyable experience. I felt totally relaxed even without makeup. Your enthusiasm and obvious expertise shines through and now armed with my colour wallet and personal advice, I shalll go forth and shop with renewed onfidence. Advice for future clients ... don't forget your makeup bag to face the world after the session". Tina Hodgson. Corbridge. Northumberland.

"Thank you for a lovely morning. You have great ways of making people feel good about themselves. I came away understanding so much more about colour in relationship to my body and face. You helped me revise my wardrobe and that gave me confidence in the clothes that I waer, but now, being sure of colours that suit me makes me feel so much more confident. You are an inspiration". Magrethe Harrington. Haydon Bridge

PERSONAL STYLE CONSULTATIONS Back to Top

… boy did I enjoy yesterday! Sheer and utter indulgence for the ego … I really feel that shopping will now be much more productive and that I'll avoid buying on impulse as I know what I should be looking for. Margaret Atkinson. Newton. Northumberland

A huge thank you for all your thoughtful comments and advice - I will aim to follow it and am certainly glad of the challenge to cheer up my wardrobe. J. Grieg. Canada

I so enjoyed my day with you, the whole experience has given me  confidence and a sense of looking forward to shopping for clothes and accessories, rather than dreading it … I was able to bypass a whole section in a clothes shop yesterday and it felt GOOOD!!!! Esther Peel. Lowgate. Hexham.

"There have been two occasions when Jenny B has advised and helped me find the perfect outfit. The first, my stepdaughters wedding in July 2006. I had spent many hours trailing round the shops with little success. I was beginning to panic when Jenny phoned to say she thought she had seen a dress that would suit the occasion very well. The next morning I went along to the shop and as soon as I tried the outfit on I knew I had to buy it – it was just me. The second occasion was a ball to celebrate my 60th Birthday. I went shopping on my own, bought two dresses but when I got them home one didn’t t fit properly and the other did nothing for me. So back to the shop they went. Jenny then came shopping with me; she selected about six dresses for me to try on, most of which I would never have picked myself. The one Jenny thought most suitable made me feel like a million dollars! Jenny takes the time to understand her clients in terms of their personality, how they want to look, the occasion and the price they wish to pay. She then makes her suggestions based upon these requirements. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Jenny B as an image consultant, she works in a very professional way and I will certainly seek her advice in the future. The two outfits Jenny B has suggested for me have been absolutely fabulous." Margaret Iliffe. Hexham

"... to say another thank you! I am now 37lbs lighter than when you met me and have gone from a size 22 to a size 16! I've just got ready to go out this evening and I cannot tell you how good I feel. I still consider it was you who started me off - not least because you didn't tell me that looking good depended on looking thinner! Once I had started to feel a little more self esteem, I realised I was OK but could do better ...thank you so very much." Caroline. Leyburn.

" I had to write to say how much I have enjoyed the way Jenny Bersin helped me discover a new style for myself. It was a really fascinating, stimulating and enjoyable experience. She has a great talent for introducing new ideas, making them exciting without tem feeling threatening. I would never have considered the shops we went to and of course they had the styles she was suggesting, and I would never have believed that we could get such a change of style on my budget, but we did. Having started me off as she did , I am now having a great time buying for myself. I took up her idea of black baggy trousers as a basis for a variety of evening outfits and these have been so successful. All in all, compliments from my family will bear out the fact that the process has been rewarding, productive and positive. I cannot recommend her highly enough if you want to change your image, cannot make decisions about what you should wear or need help with what to buy." Janet O'Hanlon. Thorngrafton.

"I had always found it difficult to decide what to wear and this was due, in part, to a lack of confidence and a lack of understanding of my body. I asked Jenny to sort out my cluttered wardrobe and advise me on colour, style and which outfits might suit me. She has a sensitive but enthusiastic approach and by the time she had finished I found that while my wardrobe had diminished my confidence had soared. There were gaps in my wardrobe and jenny accompanied me on a great day out shopping to supplement my wardrobe where it was needed. By the end of the day I know which clothes suited me and I could see how they could be used with the rest of the clothes and accessories in my wardrobe. My husband says that it's like having a new wife....so I'm negotiating booking him up with Jenny!" Magrethe Harrington. Haydon Bridge.
