- Wonderful experience
I've been going to Roots now for 5 years - it is a wonderful salon. When my previous stylist moved, she recommended Allen Addington. I couldn't be more thrilled with what he does with my hair. He is an artist and it shows - his attention to detail, keen eye for what works best for your face shape and coloring, and quality work is why I keep coming back. You will not leave disappointed after a...

Of course your experience here depends on the stylist, and happily I found Allen Addington. OK, maybe it is more than Allen's background in fine art, but you will find that he is a guy who pays painstaking attention to getting your cut and color just right. He takes the time and asks the right questions. Early on he asked what color my hai...

She got all the right spots, and there was relaxing music, hot towels and everything. Very nice and very professional. Will book one again soon cause it was super affordable.

After being away for nearly 10 years, I was THILLED to have found him back! His cuts are flawless. His color choices and techniques will have strangers stopping you on the street telling you how fantastic your hair looks! He truly is an artist in every sense. I'm a "lifer" with Allen and will never let anyone...

The type of salon that tends to "overthink" things, tries/wants to be original, when maybe you just want what you're comfortable with and what you want, but they try to make you think they can make you look so much better, and their technique is superb to whatever you had before. Not to my liking.
Read More On Citysearch Jane0101 7/13/2008 - I always get a great haircut from Allen...My experience with Allen has been nothing short of fantastic, every single time. He never rushes me, I feel like he almost cuts each strand of hair individually. It's his meticulous approach to cutting and styling that brings me back. His professional, yet easy going attitude allows for me to come in, unwind and relax.
When I followed him to Roots, I was pleasantly surprised at how nice ev...
Read More On Citysearch AntonioJR 5/27/2008 - Allen Addington=The Best Artistic Hair Stylist!I'm so glad I found Allen to do my hair again! He's very patient and actually listens to your ideas for cuts and color. And if you don't have any ideas that day, he really puts thought into making your hair a work of wearable art and makes you your stylish best! He's got tons of experience and has studied Vidal Sassoon, Toni and Guy (you know, the Bedhead people!), Wella, Rusk, etc.
You won...
Read More On Citysearch MicheM 5/2/2008 - Had to style my own hair afterwards
When I arrived, my stylist's work area was a mess, including hair all over the chair. She apologized about the floor but I had to brush the chair off myself. She did a decent job with the color but didn't really have any creative suggestions. She gave me a very relaxing shampoo. When it came to the cut, she disagreed with me quite a bit about what I was asking for. I've worn my hair that way...

She is totally the kind of hair stylist who makes you feel good about your hair, your life, and who you are as a person. And my cut is exactly what I wanted! I brought in some pictures to give her an idea of what I wanted, and she looked at them and talked to me about what was good, what wasn't, and what would work well on me. It's great when stylists take time lik...

Went on the recommendation of a friend and will not go anywhere else now. Jessika did my hair - she's great. Did awesome color and cut - my hair has never looked so good and even looks good as it's growing out. No sales pressure, just great service.
Read More On Citysearch kak1970 6/13/2006 - the bestI have been all over looking for someone who could get my haircolor right and I was overly impressed. I not only was happy with my color but my haircut was also amazing. I went to Jackie and she really listened to my needs and that made me feel very comfortable. The atmosphere was relaxing and not snobby. I tell all my friends and they have now gone there and they all look great.
