We’re excited to welcome Palette + Thread and owner Ellie to Metropolitan Salon & Spa.
Personal color analysis helps you understand the colors and tones that naturally complement your skin, hair and eyes. But knowing your colors is only the beginning.
With Palette + Thread located inside Metropolitan, you can take what you discover with Ellie and begin translating it into your hair color, makeup, skincare and everyday beauty choices—all under one roof.
Ellie is the owner, operator and creative force behind Palette + Thread. Her philosophy is rooted in helping women celebrate their natural beauty by working with their best season rather than against it. With a background in retail and styling women of different shapes and seasons, she created Palette + Thread to help women feel seen, confident and excited about what naturally makes them shine.
For Ellie, color analysis is about more than discovering a palette. It’s an opportunity to invest a little time back into yourself—and walk away with knowledge you can use again and again.
We couldn't be more excited to give Palette + Thread a home inside Metropolitan and introduce Ellie and her expertise to our guests.
This is where we believe the two experiences fit together beautifully.
Palette + Thread helps you discover the colors that work with you. Metropolitan helps you bring that discovery to life.
After your analysis, you don't have to go home wondering:
What does this mean for my hair?
Which lip or blush colors should I actually be wearing?
What products should I be looking for?
Because you're already inside Metropolitan, you can connect with one of our color or makeup experts to start exploring those answers. When possible, we're happy to begin the conversation that day—or help you set up a time to dive deeper.
No guessing. No trying to interpret everything on your own.
You have your palette. Now let's use it.

Knowing your season can take so much of the guesswork out of makeup.
Our team can help you explore flattering lip, cheek, eye and complexion shades, recommend products based on your palette and give you the opportunity to see and experience colors before deciding what's right for you.

Warm caramel or cool beige? Golden brunette or ash? Copper or cool red?
Connect with a Metropolitan color expert to explore how your personal palette can influence your hair-color direction. We'll help you consider tones and color choices that work with your features, your goals and the results of your Palette + Thread experience.

Beautiful makeup starts with the skin underneath it.
As you're exploring the colors that complement your complexion, our team can also help identify skincare products and professional treatments that support your individual skin goals.
It's another way to take what you've learned about yourself and turn it into a beauty routine that's truly personalized.
Your Palette + Thread experience gives you information that's uniquely yours.
Bring your palette with you when you visit Metropolitan. Show it to your stylist. Pull it out when you're choosing a new lip color. Use it when you're ready for a change.
Our team is here to help you connect the dots between what you've learned about your colors and how you want to look and feel every day.

Palette + Thread offers individual color analysis experiences as well as experiences for multiple guests. Ellie will help you discover your season, understand your coloring and leave with personalized information you can use long after your appointment. Her current individual Palette Experience includes color-analysis draping, contrast and seasonal education, hair/makeup/metals guidance and a digital guide specific to the guest's season.
Palette + Thread appointments are booked directly through Ellie.
