Grey Blending • Gloss • Coverage • Shine
At The Co-Artist Studio in Capitola, we believe color should enhance your natural beauty — not overpower it. Our goal is to create soft, radiant color that fits effortlessly into your lifestyle. From subtle grey blending to rich all-over tones, each service is thoughtfully customized to your hair type, color history, and desired result.
Every appointment includes a professional consultation, custom gloss, and blowout finish for a polished, healthy look that shines long after your visit.
Grey Blending & Gloss (Root Touch-Up & Gloss)
For soft, natural coverage that grows out beautifully.
This demi-permanent, ammonia-free color service gently blends grey hair for up to 70% coverage, creating a seamless, low-maintenance result without harsh lines. Finished with a shine-boosting gloss and smooth blowout, this service is perfect for clients who want to soften their greys rather than fully cover them.
Recommended Maintenance: Every 6–8 weeks
Grey Full Coverage & Gloss
For 100% coverage and lasting confidence.
A classic root touch-up designed to deliver complete grey coverage for a uniform, polished finish. Followed by a custom gloss and blowout for added shine and softness.
Options are available with or without ammonia — simply let your stylist know your preference.
Recommended Maintenance: Every 3–4 weeks
Gloss / Glaze / Toner
Your instant refresh between color services.
A quick, semi-permanent treatment that enhances tone, adds dimension, and restores brilliance to dull strands. Infused with moisture, this gloss leaves your hair silky, luminous, and refreshed — perfect between appointments or as a standalone shine service.
Recommended Maintenance: Every 4–6 weeks
All-Over Color
Rich, even tone from roots to ends.
A single shade is applied throughout the hair for a cohesive, vibrant result. Ideal for clients looking to go richer, darker, or slightly lighter while maintaining shine and softness. Includes a conditioning treatment and professional blow-dry finish.
Recommended Maintenance: Every 6–8 weeks
