FAQ

Before you start

How accurate is the Tonesy quiz?

It asks about contrast, undertone and clarity together, not just warm-versus-cool, which gets most people to the right family and often the right season. It is a strong starting indicator rather than a substitute for in-person draping, and your result always shows a runner-up season worth checking too.

How long does the quiz take?

About 3 minutes. It is 13 questions, each with an honest 'unsure' option so you are never forced into a guess, and it covers undertone, contrast and clarity together so your result is not based on temperature alone, unlike most quick warm-or-cool quizzes.

Are my quiz results saved anywhere?

Your answers and result are saved only in your browser's local storage, not on our servers, and there is no account to create. Clearing your browser data or switching devices will reset your result, so retake the quiz if that happens.

I dye my hair or tan regularly. Will that throw off my result?

It can. Dyed hair keeps pulling the eye toward its own color rather than your natural one, and a tan changes surface tone without changing your underlying undertone. For the most accurate result, answer with your natural hair color in mind and avoid taking the quiz right after a fresh tan.

Does this work for men?

Yes, completely. The three axes, undertone, contrast and clarity, apply the same way regardless of gender, and every season page works identically for anyone taking the quiz. Suit fabric, tie color and shirt choices follow the same palette logic as any other wardrobe piece.

What if my result comes back inconclusive?

That usually means one of the three axes did not get a clear enough signal from your answers, often because you selected 'unsure' on several related questions. Retake the quiz in natural daylight with a bare face and answer the contrast and clarity questions as concretely as you can, since those are the ones most often skipped or guessed at.
