Top Hair Color Salon in Castro Valley

When it comes to coloring hair, there are two categories of services: depositing and lifting. This page is dedicated to depositing color, which is all about enhancing your shade with permanent, semi permanent or demi permanent color formulations which contain pigment without any lightener. Understanding the look you want, and how long you intent to wear your color before changing it up, will help us determine which formula is best for you.

All Over Color, Root Touch Ups

Single process, or all over color, is hands down one of the most popular services at Studio W Salon. With an all-over color, women and men can achieve a complete color change and add healthy softness and shine. With endless shades to choose from, our hair stylists will help you choose the best undertones of any shade to complement your features and your cut.

Shadow Root Hair Color

Today's hair color looks and trends incorporate lots of dimension - or contrast. One way of adding dimension to your hair color, especially to hair that's been highlighted, is with a shadow root. This technique was born for those women who don't like their highlights to look too "fresh." We apply a single process color just to the roots to add depth to the base color and blur along the part-line so the start of the highlighted pieces are less obvious.  A shadow root is a way to adjust your natural base color too, if you prefer a warmer tone for example.

Grey Coverage

There's no shame in going grey...the pandemic taught us that! But if you're not ready to let your grey come in, or if you like more contrast than your grey hair provides, then adding an all over color is the way to go. Permanent and semi permanent color is a great way to camouflage grey hair and touch up root regrowth. 

Copper and Red Hair

Red is more than just a color, it’s an attitude! Red hair can look great on just about anyone, but few of us have it naturally. Red hair is a classic beauty, and the trick is finding the right tone and brightness to flatter your skin tone.

Brunette Hair

Whether you’re thinking of becoming a sexy brunette or just want to enrich your brown hair, our expert hair color artists can give you the look you want with a wash of color.

Dark and Black Hair

There's something so alluring about the deepest hair colors. Enhance your color and shine, even if you deepen it a little with an all over color.

Vivid Color for the Entire Family

Whether you call it vivid color, fashion color or fantasy color, you can indulge all your hair color cravings by wearing a statement shade. You can pull it off, it's all about maintaining dimension to keep hair from looking overstated and keeping your color fresh so that it doesn't look dull or flat. Vivid color is a commitment. Typically, a vivid color requires a double process, first lightening the hair all over so that your colorist has a bare canvas. Your fashion color will require regular touch ups to keep the colors looking vibrant. We'll instruct on the best types of products to use at home, along with ingredients to avoid, to safeguard your color as long as possible.
