Cannot say enough great things about my experience with Shane. I’ve never had such a thorough and educational haircutting experience before, and I cannot wait to return to keep the good looks going! Shane, appreciate your patience, collaboration, and compassion. Looking forward to next time!

Root has come under new ownership and I love them already! They are thoughtful in their approach and intentional in what they do. I come to Root because of my stylist Shane. I drive across the valley because of him. Shane is generous and kind in his approach. He has a gift both in artistry and hospitality that’s genuine. You will walk away refreshed and feeling taken care of here.

I've been with Traci for years. Throughout that time, she has been patient, understanding and educational. As a learner, context and understanding are important for me. With grays sprouting up, I am new to the coloring world. She has helped me learn and understand the process and set good expectations. It's taken me a while to "settle down" in this new world, and I couldn't have done it without Traci. I like that she also takes times during sessions to educate her apprentices. Traci has also starting cutting my husband's hair and it has never looked better. It's a low maintenance cut that amplifies his curls and highlights his facial structure.
