    Long hair blow out with curls.
    Paula M.

    I came to root bar for a blow out for a wedding I was officiating. I think her name is Naomi was my stylist. She was chatty but not over the top, friendly, professional and sweet. She asked me questions about the tone of my event and how my long hair does with curls etc. She did a wonderful job and I most definitely will be back. I highly recommend.

    I've been to this color bar a few times, the first was to go back to my natural color from having blonde for several years. I saw Tori most times. She originally took my color way too dark (see attached photo), it was not color matched properly. When I went back for a consultation about bringing up the color so that my regrowth wasn't harsh, the lady said that my original color was not done properly as she didn't even "fill" my blonde color. The lady that gave me this advice is no longer there and actually moved salons, we did not do anything that day because she advised me that I would most likely require an entire color correction unless I let my hair grown out and balanced to color from there. Flash forward to about 3 weeks ago, I went to see them again and was placed with the lady that originally took me too dark. I requested her to just blend my roots in with an all over color because I had some bands in my hair. I even acknowledged that it is OKAY if my bands are still showing, that I do not want a darker color just to cover the imperfections. She then took my hair even darker than it has ever been. I called the following day*** and calmly explained why I was unhappy, asking for suggestions on how to remove this. I was told that they would get back to me on a way they could fix the mishap since it was a staff error in color matching. When I was reached back out to by a manager, Katie. She said she was going to seek out the color remover and would contact me that Monday. It was in this same phone call that she confided that the staff I had been seeing has had previous color matching challenges, keep that in mind. The following Monday, I didn't get a call as promised as a matter of fact I never got a call. I called them a week and a half after they had verbally said they would call me and a man answered, he put me on hold, came back on the line and said "I want to reiterate that we do not usually do this service here, we are doing this as a courtesy." I agreed because this was what I understood about my situation already, that it was an error and mistake on their end so they were responsible for mending the issue. He booked me in, I came in, saw Katie who was color removing me that day and was the one who agreed to take on the service. The service itself was pleasant, the staff is great and was kind in person. After my service though, she requested $100 for the service that was supposed to be "complimentary" because of one of their*** staff errors, not an error on my end. I was not prepared to pay this and I am extremely disappointed in not only the communication but also the integrity among the staff. I believe this is a disappointing way to conduct business given a.) this was a staff error, so a color remover should not be charged, b.) I was told from their own management that this staff had previous color matching issues and c.) they requested a payment of $100, because it was a "color correction" service, which it is not. It is a color remover/wash service. I will unfortunately not feel comfortable coming here again and I don't expect to get a refund for what I was able to "pay" which I should never had to front in the first place. I will update this post if anything gets resolved. I've attached a photo of the stark difference you can see in the color matching. This was my regrowth before coming in my last time to show how poorly color matched this was in the first place. Maybe it's my bad for ever coming back...

    Before: pumpkin explosion hair
    Annalisa E.

    I moved to Phoenix from NYC. I'm really particular and weary of colorists since I'm Asian ( been through so many disappointments and waste of money) and it is very hard to find someone who understands this type of hair and colors to match my skin tone. I miss my fabulous colorist at Warren Tricomi at The Plaza. She was the only person who always made my hair look natural and amazing. It was a sad day when I had to say good bye. After a few bad experiences here in Phoenix with other colorists which left my hair brassy & looking like a pumpkin explosion....I'm happy to share that I found my new hair home!! Yesterday I booked with Katie a root to tip, gloss and blowout service . To be honest I was apprehensive trying a new place. But as soon as I walked in Root bar, I felt really welcomed by (I'm sorry I forgot your name! ) a beautiful lady (she was so nice and informative) and chic decor made me have a little more confidence in the salon. Let's talk about my beautiful luscious "new" hair! Immediately upon meeting Katie - well...I felt like I was meeting up with a good friend! I didn't quite know what I wanted and after the consult - she somehow knew exactly what I wanted and needed! My hair never felt softer, shinier and beautiful! I think I thanked her a gazillion times, saying she gave me brand new hair lol and was totally blown away and HAPPY with every service I received. If you need a colorist who makes miracles happen make an appt with Katie! They are currently running a Valentine's Day special which ends soon... $140 (not sure on exact price) I think for either 4 blowouts or 4 root SO worth it. I bought a package before my appointment but in my excitement after seeing my hair I forgot to buy another one and will be doing that right after my review! Thank you Root bar for being my new hair home.

    This is a cute little studio with modest prices. I had my hair dyed one solid color which was quickly done.

    Lisa, Lisa, Lisa!…read more Y'all, if you're looking for an amazing stylist, look no further. I'm someone who has done a lot to my hair over the years. I previously owned a modeling agency, and we were constantly changing hair styles and working with some of the best stylists in the world. After moving to the Sedona area, I had three disappointing experiences in a row--honestly, some of the worst hair I've ever had. I finally decided to make the trip to Scottsdale, where I knew I could find someone who truly cared about their craft. After doing some research, I chose this salon and booked with Lisa. In just one appointment, she completely understood what I wanted and delivered it flawlessly. With over 20 years of experience, she made what seemed impossible look effortless. She not only got me back to where I wanted to be--she exceeded my expectations. What I appreciated most was that she listened. Really listened. Then she combined that understanding with incredible skill and precision. On top of that, she's an absolute delight to spend time with. If you've been struggling to find a stylist you trust, I know how stressful that can be. Great hair makes such a difference, and we all deserve exceptional service and results. Run, don't walk, and book with Lisa. You'll be so glad you did! xoxo

I totally recommend her 1000%!

She texted him personally to make a Saturday afternoon appointment for me and sent pictures of the wolf-cut I desired. I arrived on time for my 2pm appointment and was greeted by Thanh and seated immediately. I showed him the pictures again. Then he asked me if I wanted to shampoo my hair, which I agreed to. Then we got straight to work. At the end of my cut, he made sure I liked the result, to which I asked for my bangs a bit shorted and he readily obliged. I paid $45 (excluding an additional tip) in cash, but I didn't inquire further if they also accept card or if there's an additional fee for paying by card. I looked around the salon for a menu of costs of services, which he said there wasn't one. No problem, I plan on coming back for haircuts only anyway which I know are $45! Otherwise, I'll text him personally asking for other services if I want them! All in all, I was in and out the door at 2:00 and 2:30 respectively, literally (I looked at the clock). I was so happy with my haircut, especially for the price AND quick in/out time. Thank you Thanh for your amazing work!!!
