Express Gray Coverage Salons, Built to Scale
A focused salon concept delivering 100% gray coverage in 30 minutes, backed by brand-manufactured professional color and a recurring membership revenue model.
Brand overview
ColorOnly narrows the entire salon experience down to one high-frequency job — gray coverage — and builds recurring revenue around it. The brand manufactures the professional color behind both its salon service and its at-home line, creating a structural advantage in supply, margin, and cross-channel demand. Partners operate a small-footprint salon with a narrow service menu, membership-based recurring revenue, and a complementary direct-to-consumer at-home color line. The complete model — first-visit offer, memberships, and acquisition system — currently runs at the Coral Springs flagship location.

Why choose ColorOnly Express Salons
Recurring, recession-resistant demand — gray coverage is maintenance, not luxury, and clients return every few weeks for years.
Manufacturer economics — ColorOnly makes the color, giving partners a supply and margin advantage over typical salons.
Two revenue paths from one brand — in-salon service plus at-home color shipped nationwide.
Simple, repeatable operations — a narrow service menu means a smaller footprint and repeatable staffing, training, scheduling, and local marketing.
Proven unit ready to replicate — the full model runs today at the Coral Springs flagship location.

Training & support
ColorOnly provides onboarding for partners and their colorists, plus ongoing operational support as they open and grow. The brand's tested systems for staffing, scheduling, and local marketing are designed to be repeatable from the first location onward, drawing on the operating playbook already running at the Coral Springs flagship.
Ideal candidate
ColorOnly is well suited for retail-service operators who know staffing, standards, and local customer experience; multi-unit entrepreneurs who want a repeatable model across several locations; capital partners interested in a manufacturer-backed consumer-service model; and local market partners who can validate demand and open the right first market.
