Frequently Asked Questions

1. Why is it so cheap?

The price is symbolic.
Our goal is to make this knowledge accessible to as many people as possible.
The value of the information in this course is many times higher than its price.

This course is also part of a larger learning system — a full retouching program.
We want more people to experience our approach and quality, and if you like it, you can continue with the full program.

2. Can I get a refund for the course?

Yes, of course. If you purchased the course but realized it’s not the right fit for you, you can request a refund within 7 days of your purchase.

The main condition: access to most of the lessons must not be fully used. If you’ve already watched a significant portion of the course or downloaded most of the materials, unfortunately, a refund isn’t possible.

To request a refund, just send me a message in Instagram Direct @viktorkyslyi — we’ll handle everything quickly and without any hassle.

3. How is this course different from free tutorials on YouTube?

Free tutorials give you random tips.
This course gives you a complete system — from theory to practice, with clear explanations of how color perception works and how to apply it with real professional techniques.

4. I’ve been working with color for a while. Will I learn something new?

Yes. I’ve been studying color in practice for over 15 years.
The course is not only about techniques — it’s about understanding and seeing color, how it’s built, and how it works.
If you don’t learn anything new from this course, I’ll give you a full refund.

5. How long do I have access to the course?

You’ll have full access for 6 months.

6. Is the course only theory, or is there practice too?

There are both theory and practice lessons.
I show how I work with color in real examples — and you can download the same photos to practice on your own.

7. Will I get feedback during the course?

Yes. You’ll have access to a shared WhatsApp group where you can ask questions, talk with me, the mentors, and other students.
You can also get personal support by purchasing the Mentor Plan, which includes one-on-one feedback from a curator.

8. Can I take the course on my phone or tablet?

Yes, all lessons are available on any device with an internet connection.

9. How much time does it take to complete the course?

The lessons are short — around 10–30 minutes each.
You can learn at your own pace.
On average, completing the full course takes about 2–3 weeks of study.
In total, the course includes 280 minutes of content.
There are also homework assignments included.

10. If I buy now, when does the course start?

Right after payment — you’ll get instant access to all lessons.

11. What software do I need?

You can access the course from your phone — the theory part covers general knowledge about color.
The second module starts with professional retouching techniques, and for that, you’ll need any version of Photoshop on your computer.

12. Is the course only in English? I don’t speak it very well.

The main voiceover is in English, but we’ve added audio tracks in other languages: 🇪🇸 🇮🇹 🇫🇷 🇩🇪 🇵🇹 🇵🇱 🇮🇳 🇯🇵 🇺🇦

13. I’m a photographer and don’t always do retouching myself. Does it make sense for me to take the course?

Absolutely. You create the images — and the final result depends on you.
You’ll learn to understand color, how to work with it on set, how to properly set up your camera, and how your clients perceive color.
You’ll also be able to explain your vision clearly to your retoucher.

14. I’m a makeup artist/stylist. Why would I need this course?

When you understand how color works in post-production, you can make smarter decisions on set that save time for the whole team and improve the final result.
We also explore color perception in general — how color works, how people see it, and how to use that knowledge in your creative process.

15. Is the course only for beauty retouchers?

No. The color theory applies to everything.
Beauty photos are the main examples, but all techniques work for any genre — portrait, fashion, wedding, lifestyle, product, and more.
We even include examples of outdoor photos.
