Time to make your reflection jealous.
Color Without the Guesswork
At The Chop Shop Hair Co., we keep things simple: you pick the vibe, we handle the science. Our all-inclusive color menu is built around results—not how many bowls, foils, or incantations it takes to get there. You’ll leave with hair that turns heads in Greensboro (and probably Brooklyn, too), without needing a chemistry degree to understand the process.
Got questions? Read on to learn how to book the right service for the look you want—no guesswork required.
✦The Great Gray Cover-Up
✦ Not Sure What to Book?
Looking for both highlights and a root touch-up? Scroll down to our Going Lighter section—this isn't the menu you're looking for.
The Root Awakening | Book a Root Retouch
For the seasoned color guest who just needs a little root rehab. Perfect for covering grays or touching up existing color.
⚠️ No highlights included with this service.
Paint It Rich | Book an All Over Color
This is your all-over refresh. A root touch-up plus a gloss, or just a full-on shift to rich, dimensional color. Ideal if you’re ready to deepen your hue or show off a shade that’s been living rent-free in your head.
⚠️ No highlights included here either.
💡 Going dark from blonde? Check out Going Darker: Dramatically Darker.
Gray Area | Book a partial root retouch
Just a few silver streaks causing a scene? This partial root touch-up targets small zones so you can slide through to your next full color with grace and glam intact.
Book this if:
You only need the front/top touched up
You’ve got a few sneaky grays popping up
You’re between root appointments and need a little backup
Gray Gatsby | Book a dimensional blonding
Want to soften the sparkle without going full coverage? Highlights or lowlights are used strategically to blend grays and give a diffused, natural finish. Especially magical for blondes and lighter brunettes.
Darker-haired clients—this can still work, but expect an overall lightening effect.
Fade to Fabulous | Book an all over glossing
For those who want a soft approach to gray blending. This translucent gloss won’t fully cover grays but will whisper them into the background. It fades out in 4–6 weeks, no root line, no drama—just subtle shine and easy upkeep.
✦Let There Be Light
Whether you’re looking to fake a beach vacation or fully reinvent your shade, this is your go-to guide for all things blonde, bright, and bold. Scroll on, glow up.
Blonde Ambition | Book a Partial Blonding
A little pop, a little brightness, a whole lot of “yes.”
Blondes and light-to-medium brunettes—this one’s for you. Book a partial blonding if you’re craving subtle dimension and sun-kissed sparkle without overhauling your entire look. Think “casual glow-up,” not “total transformation.”
⚠️ Got darker hair? Head to Bleach, Please or Born to Be Blonde below.
Chasing Light | Book a Partial Blonding
When you want a noticeable lift—without needing a new license photo.
This is for anyone ready to level up the lightness, whether you're a brunette flirting with caramel or a blonde leaning into brightness. If you’ve got naturally dark hair and want to lighten it even a bit, this is where your glow-up starts.
Born to Be Blonde | Book a Full Blonding
New identity pending.
Ready to jump multiple levels lighter? This one’s for you. Book a Full Blonding. If you're not blonde yet but want to pass as blonde, we’ve got your back—and your toner. Expect multiple sessions and a tailored plan, because going big means doing it right.
🗓 Complimentary consultation required to make a game plan for your blonde era.
Bleach, Please | Book a Consultation
All-in, no turning back. Blonde from root to tip.
Bleach & Tone is for those who want to go fully light—think platinum, icy, or soft vanilla vibes. We’ll assess everything: hair history, texture, goals, and commitment level. Then we bleach like we mean it.
In-person consultation required before booking. Science and magic take time.
✦ Welcome to the Dark Side
Whether you’re ditching blonde for bold, adding richness to your roots, or just embracing your mysterious side—this is where the drama begins. Dark, dimensional, and deeply intentional.
🖤 The Root Ritual | Book a Root Retouch
For those who are already in the color club.
If you’ve been covering grays or keeping your roots on lock, this is your maintenance must-have. Just a root refresh—no highlights, no fuss, just touch-up magic where it counts.
🌒 Deep Dive | Book an All Over Color
Ready to take your color a bit deeper? We’ve got you.
Ideal if you want to enrich your all-over tone from root to tip or bump your current shade a little darker. Great for brunettes, redheads, and dark blondes who want to add drama without losing their edge.
⚠️ Want to go way darker from blonde? Scroll down to Pitch Please.
⚠️ Only need your roots touched up? Book The Root Ritual instead.
🎭 Shadow Play | Book a Reverse Balayage
Highlights too bright? Let’s shift the mood.
Also known as “reverse balayage,” this service blends deeper lowlights into your current highlights for a look that’s rich, dimensional, and intentionally low-key. You’ll still keep that lived-in lightness—but now with a sultry twist. Think less beachy, more espresso martini.
🌑 Pitch Please | Book an A Tint Back Color
Blonde regret? We’re here for your dark era.
If you’ve been light and you’re ready to go bold, this is the move. Going from blonde (especially bleached) to rich, dark tones takes a few steps to avoid patchiness or weird undertones—so trust the process.
Basically: this is your “undo the blonde decisions” package. Your selfies will thank you.
✦ Red Flags Welcome
From natural gingers to full-blown fire sirens, this section is for anyone chasing copper, crimson, or that can't-quite-look-away kind of red.
🍓 Rust in Peace | Book a Red Color Service
Soft. Glowy. Naturally suspicious.
Book this if you’re craving a believable red—think strawberry blonde, copper, auburn, or ginger goodness. Whether you were born with it or just want people to think you were, we’ve got your red covered.
⚠️ Want to go lighter than your current shade? You’ll need a pre-lightening service—check out Let There Be Light and add Rust Revival Gloss in the "You May Also Need" section.
🔥 Red Over It | Book a Consultation
Bold. Unreal. Unapologetically extra.
This is for the not-so-natural reds: crimson, cherry, ruby, neon… anything that makes heads turn and strangers ask, “What color is that?” These looks usually require pre-lightening, so we’ll need to chat first.
🗓 Complimentary in-person consult required to make your red dream (or fever dream) a reality.
💡 Note: We don’t offer a basic root touch-up for reds—because every red needs a gloss. Always. No exceptions. Don’t fight it.
✦ Unnatural Selection- Vivids and Creative Colors
For those born to stand out—not blend in.
Whether you're craving holographic opal, oil-slick blue, or just a flash of rebellious purple around the hairline, creative color is where the fun (and the commitment) begins.
🎨 Loud, Proud & High-Maintenance | Book a Consultation
Vivid, fashion, fantasy—whatever you call it, creative color is anything but basic. These are the bold, high-impact shades that make strangers stop you on the street. Pinks, purples, greens, silvers, rainbows, galaxies—you name it, we’ve probably done it (or we’re dying to).
But here’s the deal: vibrant color takes time, planning, and a healthy dose of hair science. Whether you’re going full siren or just adding a pop of pink to your money piece, we need to know where your hair is starting so we can get you where you want to go.
We use Pulp Riot, Hueverse, and Evo to create these looks—so you’re getting the brightest pigments, the cleanest fades, and the boldest results.
⚡ Booking a vivid color? You’ll need an in-person complimentary consultation first.
We’ll assess your current color, talk goals, and make a game plan. Creative color often takes multiple sessions to get it right—especially if your hair needs to be lightened first. We’ll walk you through timing, cost, and how to keep your new color looking fresh
