A less finely tiered scale of six skin types, called the Fitzpatrick scale, was introduced in 1975 by Harvard dermatologist Thomas B. Fitzpatrick to describe the sun tanning behaviour of various skin types, without any racial classification connotations, as follows:
Type von Luschan scale Also called
I 1–5 Very light or white, "Celtic" type
II 6–10 Light or light-skinned European
III 11–15 Light intermediate, or dark-skinned European
IV 16–21 Dark intermediate, also "Mediterranean" or "olive skin"
V 22–28 Dark or "brown" type
VI 29–36 Very dark or "black" type
----
I think Im 18-20 so i would call myself dark but still in olive and approaching the brown type on the fitzpatrick scale
-- Now your guys turn.
