Hue
The actual 'name' of a colour — red, blue, green — independent of how light, dark, bright or muted it is.
What it means
Hue is the basic identity of a colour: which point on the colour wheel it sits on. Two reds can share a hue but have completely different temperatures, values and chromas. Color analysis cares about hue mainly because some hues sit naturally warm (orange, gold), some sit naturally cool (blue, magenta), and some can be pushed either way (red, green, purple).
How it shows up in your Better in Style analysis
Hue, value and chroma together describe every colour — and the three corresponding axes (warm-cool, light-deep, soft-clear) describe every face. Your season is the intersection of those three readings.
