Founder · Certified Color Analyst · Strategist
Melissa is a certified color analyst trained through Tatum Mae, bringing analytical precision, executive perspective, and a deeply caring approach to every consultation.
the Hue Method
Melissa built the Hue Method around a simple belief: the right guidance should make you feel more like yourself—not like someone else's version of polished. Her background in clinical care, operations leadership, and business brings a rare combination of observation, strategy, and empathy to personal image work.
Melissa completed Tatum Mae's comprehensive color-analysis certification training, including advanced seasonal analysis, the 16-palette system, home and flow seasons, professional draping, and real-client consultation technique.
Color analysis requires careful attention to subtle shifts in skin tone, shadows, brightness, contrast, and balance. Melissa makes those details understandable and useful.
With an MBA and extensive leadership experience, Melissa understands the relationship between image, confidence, credibility, and the moments when a person needs to be seen clearly.
Clients describe the studio as informative, affirming, and fun. Questions are welcome, curiosity is encouraged, and the goal is confidence—not rules.
the Hue Method welcomes clients throughout Greater Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky to its primary studio inside Salon Lofts in Hyde Park.
