Why Mane Ivy “Total Package” Is the One Product Every Santa Cruz Woman Needs in Her Routine
The Co-Artist Studio • Capitola, CA
If there’s one product, we recommend to every client who walks out of The Co-Artist Studio with shiny, healthy, expensive-looking hair… it’s Mane Ivy’s Total Package Hair Elixir.
It’s our #1 bestselling product, our most re-purchased retail item, and the one thing clients message us about saying things like:
“THIS is the best smell ever.”
“My hair drinks this stuff.”
“Why does my hair look better every day?”
Total Package isn’t just a serum. It’s hydration, shine, protection, and repair all in one bottle. And if you’ve never used a daily hair elixir before, you’re about to understand why your hair has been craving it.
Hydrate Your Face Every Day… So Why Not Your Hair?
This is the part no one talks about: your hair needs daily moisture just as much as your skin does.
The sun, salt air, ocean water, hard water, heat styling, brushing all of it pulls moisture out of your hair. Especially here in Santa Cruz where we live in a mix of sun, fog, wind, and beach air. You wouldn’t skip moisturizer on your face, right? So don’t skip hydration for your hair.
Mane Ivy Total Package Hair Elixir is designed to be your daily hair moisturizer, keeping your hair soft, shiny, hydrated, and protected every single day.
Why It’s a Santa Cruz Essential
Our clients deal with a very specific set of hair challenges:
Coastal humidity → frizz and puffy hair
Ocean + hard water → dry, dull, tangled ends
Sun exposure → faded color and fragile hair
Heat styling → damage, breakage, and split ends
Total Package solves all of this with one daily product. One bottle that you can use every day for hydration, shine, and protection.
Why It’s Called “Total Package”
This isn’t a one-trick oil. Here’s why we call it the Total Package:
Deep Daily Hydration
Keeps dry, thirsty hair soft and touchable. Blondes stay silky, brunettes stay glossy, and natural texture stays defined instead of crispy.Glass-Like Shine (Without Grease)
Lightweight and fast absorbing. You get high shine hair that still has movement never heavy or oily.Heat Protection
Helps shield your hair from hot tools, blow dryers, and sun exposure so your cuticle stays smoother and healthier over time.Repairs and Smooths
Softens rough, frayed ends and supports the hair’s cuticle so your hair looks and feels healthier with consistent use.Frizz Control That Actually Works
Especially on foggy, humid, beachy Santa Cruz days — your hair stays smooth instead of ballooning out.The Scent Clients Rave About
Clean, soft, addictive. The kind of scent people actually comment on. Most of our clients say, “I bought it for my hair… I stayed for the smell.”
