Thank God I found a go to place and person for my hair! Moved from another state...here we go on the quest of finding a stylist/colorist! Read the reviews online and chose Lizet. Lizet is my girl! Besides knowing her stuff she is really nice. Went in for a cut and I have curly hair. Lizet cut my hair and I let her blow it straight for a fun and different look. It looked great. I wore the style for 4 days because it looked so good. After shampooing and going back to curls I realize the cut needed way more layering for my curls. So do I go back and complain (hate to do) or do I go somewhere else. I look on the Internet for other options but ultimately decide to suck it up and call to see if it was possible to get an adjustment on the cut without paying for another cut. The policy is within 2 weeks. I also needed highlights. Lizet did a great job on both! The salon is very clean and very professionally operated. Everyone is really nice. Lizet served me wine and even my fiancé was offered a beer while I processed. (My car was being serviced that day) We had good conversation while we sipped our beverages. He used a provided IPad as Lizet finished my hair. He said he enjoyed it! What? I couldnt be happier with the whole experience! Thank you lovely Lizet!!

I have curly hair and came here after looking for a place with great reviews and someone who specialized in curly hair. I traveled over 30 minutes just because of the reviews and because of what the website says about the stylists experience with curly hair. I was experiencing what curly haired people call "triangle hair." I also wanted to get some color in my hair to give it some dimension. When I left, I was so unhappy with my haircut AND color. I showed the stylist a picture of how I wanted my hair to look and when I left it looked nothing like the picture. I showed her a picture that had an ombré style to it... everywhere I go I get told they look like highlights and they do. I have also been told that the color is too yellow for my skin by another hairstylist. Not only that, but the cut was not what I wanted either. My hair was straightened so I couldnt really see the shape my hair had. When I got home and styled it with my natural curl, I still looked like I had triangle head. It seemed like she barely even cut it. I thought to myself, maybe I just need to get used to it... well, its been over 2 months...and I still hate my hair.

Beautiful salon, wonderful Staff, fabulous products and services. Its in a cute area of crown plaza in a cool neighborhood. Stylists were very knowledgeable and do amazing work. Cannot recommend this place enough! Although I was never very impressed with my previous stylist, I was nervous to let anyone else touch my hair. Well, after he made a mistake, I went to Root Salon to get help! I looked at the stylist work and decided to see Shana. I could tell right off the bat she knew what she was doing and I instantly trusted her! While I was at the sink, getting my color corrected, she was providing education to another staff there on coloring techniques. Not only further evidence that she knows what she doing, but I loved seeing the fellowship and sharing.

I am a 41 year old guy and wanted to get my hair colored. I decided "anything but conservative" but my girlfriend told me to stick with whatever the stylist recommends. I met with Katie, told her I wanted something in "candy apple red" and told her I trusted her. At first she was hesitant so she started looking at conservative colors (brown, auburn - and I said nothing) but finally Katie went bold. Katie picked a bold, dark red color that looked light bright hot pink cotton candy. After it dried the color turned this beautiful dark red. It came out amazing! My girlfriend said it contrasts with my blue eyes perfectly and said she might go see Katie herself. Several friends have said it looks great. Thanks Katie!

I have a hard time with my curly hair and hate the whole experience because Im always disappointed. I badly needed a trim and poured over reviews and websites for weeks, finally decided on this place, and made a appointment with Desiree. Its been well over 10 years since Ive been happy enough with a haircut to want to come back to the same stylist a second time. My hair is super fine, and very curly. It finally has a great shape and volume without being pouffy and a healthy bounce to it. I was even comfortable enough with her skills to ask her to go shorter than I had initially asked her to go and I couldnt be happier with the results. Desiree, youve done good girl!

Shana just colored and cut my hair today. This was my first visit. I was greeted with an offer of a beverage and reading material while I waited. Very nice staff. Shana had the perfect recommendations for warming up my blonde a bit with toner. It turned out exactly how I wanted it! She also did just enough of a twist on my hair cut to modernize it a bit. I love it! The best compliment I can give is from my husband. He doesnt always recognize my hair updates, and when I got home he said he really liked the hair cut AND color, and that it was the best cut Ive had in awhile! Shana, I will definitely make the long drive back down to see you! Thanks!

I have extremely fragile hair and have my whole life. When I go to a salon for color they always over process me and I end up paying for it for the next year as my hair also grows very slowly. The Root Salon is the only salon that understands my hair and treats it accordingly. I live in Los Angeles with some of the best salons in the world in my back yard but fly in to the Root Salon ( for the past 4 years) because Lauren Hart really knows what she is doing. It is especially important for me as I am in the luxury publishing industry and have to look trendy and polished and my best at all times. I wish they would open in up in Beverly Hills.

I temporarily relocated to the area. In the past I have found it difficult to find a stylist who gets me and listens to what I say. I met with Marla for a consultation and then returned to her a few weeks later for a cut and color. She was extremely professional, knowledgable and I was able to chat with her like I had been going to her for years. I cannot say enough good things about her and her talent! She was able to provide me with exactly what I wanted. If I am ever back in this area, I will definitely be returning! I must also mention how friendly everyone in the salon was. It seems like everyone is happy to be part of that team.
