Helen Venables -(pictured on the right)has recently been joined by Helen Norman (pictured on the left) who is operating her business from her home in Rickmansworth.
Helen Venables says:
I have lived in Watford all my adult life, have 3 boys and have worked at home (hard work!) in personnel and in education.

I began my journey with House of Colour in 1995 and was amazed at the difference it made wearing my best colours. Compliments flowed in and once I had my Image and Make-up 'done' I really began to see the point! My wardrobe all works together and doesn't have 'bargains' lurking at the back, I have something wonderful to wear for every occasion but spend less money on clothes. I know I always look great and understand what my clothes are saying about me. It's liberating! The way I feel about myself has changed dramatically and I am now passionate about passing on what I have gained. I have been successful at this and have gained the coveted Star Consultant award every year since I began my career with House of Colour. I also hold The House of Colour Professioanl Excellence Certificate.

As a House of Colour consultant I regularly run Colour Analysis, Make-Up, Women's Image and Men's Colour & Image classes and advise clients on the impact our appearance has on our lives. Accompanied services such as Shopping Trips, Decluttering Your Wardrobe, Made to Measure Tailoring for men and women and Gift vouchers are also available. Contact the office on 01923 211188 to enquire about dates and availability for all these classes and events and to make your booking.

I understand the economic advantages and deep internal benefits of looking good and how this can help us fulfil our potential, professionally and personally. I am committed to helping you develop your own personal style which you will enjoy and I know will help you get the best out of life whatever your lifestyle. At home or at work.

I regularly put together bespoke training packages for Team Away Days and Schools about the subject of Image as a Professional Tool. Take a look at the Image in Education button under Training at the top of our Home Page to see more about what I can offer in this area.

Do get in touch if you would like more information and begin your own exciting journey into a colourful and stylish future. You won't regret it!

TESTIMONIALS

‘Thanks for all your advice, help and good humour given to me on Sunday. As you said, people would comment, and they did! I recorded 9 positive comments and reactions in the first week – what a confidence booster!’

Dee,Watford

‘Well, what a journey!! I truly feel at peace with myself. The best part is to realize that it’s ok to be ME! Not spending my life wishing I was a skinny blonde, a size 10 or even to be able to go brown in the sun!! I accept now that is what makes me who I am!!

And for the whole experience I truly thank you... I can only for now, encourage all that I can to make the same exciting journey that I have. The end result and the confidence factor is worth it!! So once again, thank you!’

Jenny, Watford

‘All I can say so far is that the compliments have been coming in fast. They just say how great I look and what have I done – but can’t really put their finger on why I look so good. MARVELLOUS!’

Marsha, Garston

‘Two colleagues knew I was going and have been very supportive but to be honest I didn’t really believe them and their compliments as I was convinced they were trying to encourage me. However when a 6 year old girl took me by the hand and told me I looked beautiful I realized that they were telling the truth after all and I did look better! Helen (is) a great support and encouragement’

Christine, Stewkley

‘The colouring has given me more confidence and I feel more glamourous. After my day at Watford I received numerous compliments regarding how I looked. Fantastic value!’

Carol, Borehamwood

Having had my colours done before by another company and not seeing it I was delighted that Helen was able to show me the difference the correct colours can make. The interesting thing is that now I hate wearing black whereas I wore a lot before I met Helen!’

Sara, Tring

‘Definitely aided my career, no matter what the situation, I always look the part and feel comfortable in myself’

Mandy,Luton

‘I came to House of Colour because I had lost confidence in myself – I was unsure if a colour or style suited me. Now I no longer waste time trying on everything in a shop and I have started to build a beautiful capsule wardrobe.’

Glenda, Watford

‘I was dreading being 40 this year; thanks to House of Colour and Helen’s support I no longer look frumpy and middle aged and feel 20! I can’t explain the impact the experience has had on my self confidence. Thank you.’

Denise,Bedford

‘I’ve loved all of it – it’s been such fun and gives me so much confidence. I met a school friend recently who I hadn’t met for 15 years and he was so surprised he nearly fell off his chair! He kept commenting on my appearance and how much I’d changed saying “I don’t remember you looking this glamorous.”

Esther,Croxley Green

‘Understanding my season and clothing personality has given me increased confidence in choosing my clothes and wearing them. I feel able to wear colours knowing they mix and don’t clash – previously my wardrobe was mainly black and white, particularly for work. I am finally able to be a tomboy but also feel feminine. Helen has been a wonderful consultant – building confidence but also able to criticize – and always with a sense of humour!’

Sue, Dunstable

‘Since having my colour and Image I have received more compliments than in the last 10 years put together! The whole experience has given me so much self confidence and it’s been great to share it with friends.’

lindsay, Berhamsted

‘I didn’t realize my Colour Consultation would make such a difference. I have had lots of compliments and people say I look so well.’

Kathy, Tring

‘I have found Helen Venables to be a delight. She has a great manner to put you at ease. I have had a lot of compliments on the clothes and style from all sorts of people saying I look younger or have lost weight. It has made other female friends think about themselves as they always thought I looked nice, but now, (according to them) I look special. I am delighted to have experienced House of Colour. It has completely changed the way I look at things and has been a fascinating journey. All thanks to Helen who has inspired me.’
