Color artistry and curl expertise in the heart of Castroville — crafted by hands that have been perfecting the trade since 1983.
Forty years in the chair. She still gives every client the same attention as her first.
For more than forty years, Dominga Marquez has been a trusted name in beauty across Monterey County's North County — first earning her cosmetology license in 1983, and later opening the doors of Colors & Curls right here in Castroville in 1993.
Her approach blends classic technique with genuine curiosity for every client who sits in her chair — because no two heads of hair, and no two stories, are ever quite the same.
"People don't come back for forty years because of a trend — they come back because they trust you with their hair." Dominga Marquez, Owner & Cosmetologist
