Carol Tuttle is not an expert. As far as I can tell, she did some research on the four personality types (yellow, blue, red, white) and then regurgitated it all into a book with her name and picture on it- and probably made a million bucks.
But you know what? This book is worth every penny I spent on it. I have taken those personality types numerous times, and have become very familiar with my personality type. But now I have 3 kids who all have different personalities than me- and I not only have to get along with them- I have to RAISE them!
I have read and highlighted this book LOTS of times over the past couple years.

I do have a disclaimer though. Carol Tuttle added something new to the mix.
She believes you can tell someone's personality type by their face shape. That makes zero sense to me at all. So- I did skip that weirdness..
But the rest is excellent! ( )

Everything and everyone has an energy vibration within. Your energy vibes will harmonize or clash with others to many various degrees and that is one way you navigate your world. It's important to know that this works for children. Carol Tuttle has done an amazing job in simplifying this information in the book and program she has developed for women explaining how knowing your own energy type can invigorate your confidence. [DRESSING YOUR TRUTH DISCOVER YOUR PERSONAL BEAUTY PROFILE Carol Tuttle ] She has now forged ahead with what could be THE most useful self-help book of all that deals with children, THE CHILD WHISPERER the ULTIMATE HANDBOOK FOR RAISING HAPPY, SUCCESSFUL, COOPERATIVE CHILDREN. It is, as it says, a handbook for raising children. As you discover what makes your child who he is, the way to help him express that is outlined in simple, clear language that is easy to implement. I've seen the effects be immediate and very positive. Learning your child's basic nature can teach both of you about getting along better in their world. You will learn how to help them find what they need to help their world be harmonious to them It is a very valuable book. It is exciting. You will want to keep it close at hand to reference all your children, whatever their ages. It really is a groundbreaker. ( )

SHOCKING UPDATE: DYT book "word portraits" PLAGIARIZED Joan S Callaway book "WORD PORTRAITS" (more than half of words exact match!) Examples in my review there https://www.librarything.com/work/15250842/book/111618412; "word portraits" in "Dressing Your Truth" book & "It's Just My Nature" are almost the same, and there is crossover between those books and Child Whisperer.)

Robert A. Rohm is a PhD-level psychology expert who co-authored two D-I-S-C personality 4-type system PARENTING books; both Jane Segerstrom and Harriet McJimsey's style books were college textbooks; Belle Northrup was a university professor who wrote a book about costume; Suzanne Caygill is famous for her television show, from teaching her Caygill 4-type style system, and because several students in her lineage have famous books on style. These people are actual experts in style or psychology. In comparison, Carol Tuttle is an Tuttle is an unlicensed EFT Tapping practitioner / "New Age" energy-healing practitioner (NOT a psychotherapist as some websites claim).

"Heavy lidded, almond shaped eyes," "smiling eyes," "dreamy eyes," "sculptured look," & "star" etc. are in my reviews (and in my Listmania of Books related to Dressing Your Truth DYT on Amazon.

Although it seems Caygill-similar Irenee Riter is closest to Dressing Your Truth from energy movement, tools, Yin Yang, and haircoloring & hairstyles for the 4 types; or even Caygill-related Angela Wright with the elements (water/air/fire/earth), personality quiz in book, and colors for the 4 types; the closest style-with-personality system is probably Segerstrom. Segerstrom gives credit to Caygill-student run John Kitchener PSC in her book, and Carol Tuttle at the end of Dressing Your Truth book writes about being typed by Caygill student Taylor B. Sinclaire and then using notes from a class by the same Caygill-student run PSC to create Dressing Your Truth. Segerstrom has 2 books on finding your "SIGNATURE STYLE" (see my review); her first book is about the 4 "PRIMARY TYPES" (Type 1, Type 2, Type 3, Type 4) and her second book is about the "SECONDARY TYPES" (example: "T3-4"). Segerstrom books have detailed info on how to dress with design lines, texture, pattern, fabrication, & color and also hairstyles.
