    If you're looking for the Michelangelo of hair styling, Tyler is your artist! Words alone can't do justice to his expertise, so here's a picture to show you what a masterpiece looks like in Tyler's hands. Every time I sit in his chair, I know I'm about to walk out looking (and feeling) my absolute best. His eye for detail and ability to create a style that truly matches my personality and vision is unparalleled. It's as if he reads my mind and knows exactly what I need. I leave with hair that's not only stunning but feels easy to style day-to-day, which is such a rare find! If you're looking to elevate your look, Tyler is the one to see. ‍ Prepare for the compliments to roll in!

    First time coming to a new salon after my current hair stylist retired. I'm so glad I stumbled across root salon, super cute inside and I love the service I received. Amanda was so sweet and welcoming and I left loving my hair. She was able to take me from dark brown to the light auburn color I wanted in one session.

    I CANT SAY ENOUGH GOOD THINGS ABOUT SHANE! Thank you for always coming through and making my hair amazing. Real MVP! Vibe of the salon is unmatched

    Tyler's hack job and gold highlights. I asked for cool highlights not warm.

    After waiting 3 years to get my hair done I finally decided to go to Tyler. He had great reviews and I felt confident that he could highlight and cut my fine hair. He was professional and acted like he knew what he was doing especially because since he said he had 17 years of experience. Unfortunately that wasn't the case. I asked for a full highlight and the back of my hair is DARK still. Like no highlights at the nape. That's not the bad part though, I did not want any length off the front of my hair since it's very fine. It was passed my shoulders in the back and sat on my collar bone in the front. Tyler proceeded to cut all my hair off and then didn't know what to do. He ended up not finishing my haircut and I had to wait for someone else to finish my haircut. That was even worse! I asked if I could just be done because the haircut was a disaster and he was hacking my hair in the back. I'm devastated they still charged me $223 for the service for such a horrific experience and outcome and I still tipped on that. The next day I had to pay someone else to fix my hair so I could look presentable. I would never go back and I wish they would refund me money. No one should sit through 4+ hours to get a botched job done and then have to go somewhere else and pay to fix what you they messed up at a professional salon. I had to pay for my highlights to be toned again too since I left with gold hair. This review is not based on the salon at all but the 2 stylist who made my hair so ugly. Such an unfortunate experience. I'm hoping to hear from the owner to get this resolved.

    Here is a screenshot of the confirmation for my appointment.

    I have a special event and wanted to look my best. I called and booked an appointment with Jules on Saturday for the following Thursday. I received a confirmation text Saturday. I received another confirmation text on Wednesday which I again confirmed. I also called and spoke with the receptionist in person to confirm. Thursday morning, they sent me a text saying they had to cancel my appointment. I called and they said they had double booked. I explained this was for a special event and I had already confirmed with them 3 times. I requested to speak with a manager. The receptionist said the manager was not available. I am very disappointed by their unprofessional service. They could have had a new and loyal customer. I will be taking my business elsewhere.

    Hair by Jules at The Root salon

    I'm so happy I found Jules! He saved my hair I've been one of Jules' lucky clients for about two years and he has not only transformed the way my hair looks, it is somehow healthier than it has been in years - I didn't think this was possible considering I've been highlighting my (very) dark brown hair light blonde for the better part of a decade. After moving to AZ and bouncing around to a few different stylists in Phoenix, I felt like my hair was damaged beyond repair. After struggling to find a stylist near me and who had hours that could work with my schedule, I found The Root and booked an appointment with Jules. I didn't know what to expect but I left that appointment happier with my hair than I had been in so long!!! Jules not only gave me beautiful, bright, natural looking highlights but he was super mindful of my hair health and has continued to be for every appointment since that first one two years ago. I honestly thought I would never get my length back but my hair is finally back and I know it's due to the care and expertise that Jules has. The salon itself is also super professional and clean. Norma is so sweet too, she is always in a good mood and ready to offer a glass of wine or coffee for clients who just need a little self care Booking is super easy online and they communicate reminders which are honestly so helpful for me. Tbh I would get my hair done in an alley if that's where Jules was though. He's incredibly talented and always exceeds expectations, and goes above and beyond to ensure I'm happy with my hair.

Three employees were sitting down chatting away while I waited for my appt. I went because i wanted to cut my hair into a long bob but my consultation specialist looked at my hair and said my hair was fried. There was nothing he could do, I was so confused. I said, I'm not here to dye my hair. I'm here for a haircut. He said, I know. You need keratin and once your hair gets healthy I could try. Out of curiosity I asked, if I get my hair back to "healthy " again. I asked who he would recommend and he said nobody here. I was shocked and to be honest, I was so over the consultation that I awkwardly laughed and promised him I'd be back. He could honestly care less. I wasn't too irritated because it smelled like hard boiled eggs or broccoli in there. Not to mention, The older woman at the front desk was hella grumpy as well. I figured, if I'm going to spend $3-400 somewhere... I'd rather not spend it there thank you Looking at there reviews.. maybe they just don't serve latinas. Idk. ‍

    I was recommended Thanh, a male barber at this salon, by my cousin who's been a loyal customer of…read morehis for YEARS! 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!!!

    Honestly very disappointed in my haircut. I was initially enticed by the $45 price but it felt…read moreextremely rushed, mediocre, and hardly like the inspo photos I showed the stylist. I would rather go a salon that actually cares about their customer service and attention to detail at a higher cost - you're getting what you pay for, if not less. Firstly, my stylist was on her phone for a full 4 minutes in the middle of my 18-minute (fast? or rushed?) haircut without explanation; I would be more understanding if I were given a heads up about a personal emergency or something, but to simply step away from your client and text nonstop at the front desk without saying anything, is unacceptable. Secondly, I've never been to a salon where my hair was not washed prior to it being cut; until I came here. My hair was not even styled at the end (see photo of when I got home right after my appointment). Thirdly, it's the bare minimum to ask your customer if they like their haircut, or smile at the end. When I was paying at the front desk kiosk, my stylist went straight back to texting with the click clack of her fake nails on the phone screen. I stood at the desk for a good minute or so after payment was completed before she looked up, and quickly said "bye thank you". There were no other customers in the store except for the nail artist and her client in the shared salon space. I would NOT recommend this salon to any of my friends and advise you to get your haircut elsewhere if you care about professional service and a good haircut.
