Communication was poor, and when I did hear back, it was just excuses from Amanda instead of real updates. If you're someone who has to arrange childcare, this is especially frustrating. I ended up paying for extra hours I didn't need because of the delay. Most salons have strict cancellation policies for clients, but this salon seems fine canceling or pushing appointments less than an hour before. Overall, the scheduling needs serious improvement. I wouldn't recommend if you value your time.

Southern Roots had great reviews and they didn't disappoint. I had my hair colored by Amy and she was wonderful! She really knows her stuff and I felt really comfortable trusting her with my hair. I've been to many salons in the past where my hair did not come out the way I wanted (cut or colored). I was seriously SO surprised at the wonderful work Amy did. I have naturally black hair, and wanted to add a cool toned ashy blonde balayage. My hair turned out AMAZING. Went home and my husband was surprised, but absolutely loved it. Highly recommend!

Edited to add more info after the owner's response: I am out $300+ and my hair looks awful. I…read morerespect that your stylists get paid by commission, but in this case, no commission is deserved outside of the generous tip I left. I deserve to be refunded, period. - This was my first visit to Southern Roots, and while I had high hopes based on the stylist's reviews, my experience unfortunately didn't go as expected. When I left the appointment, my hair had been curled, which can easily mask issues with color or placement. It wasn't until I straightened it two days later that I saw the actual results, and it was clear that the outcome didn't match the inspo photos I shared or the conversation we had beforehand. I reached out right away with photos, and while the stylist responded kindly and offered to fix it, I ultimately decided I wasn't comfortable with another appointment. I was then told the salon doesn't offer refunds, and instead, the owner, who I did not book with would be the one to do the correction. As a first-time client, this doesn't sit well with me. I don't feel comfortable going back, and I don't believe I should have to. I am not asking for anything beyond a fair resolution, and a refund would allow me to go elsewhere and have the issue addressed by someone of my choosing. Out of respect, I won't name the stylist - I don't believe this policy is hers, and I know she's done great work for many others. But I do think the salon's refund policy and how this situation was handled deserve to be shared. I'm including photos (the inspo pictures and my result) so others can make their own judgment. I always prefer to handle these things privately, but I also believe in transparency, especially when your first experience as a client leaves you feeling dismissed.

I gave her pictures and she butchered my hair I would have rather her robbed me than butch my hair. She was rude and had no care for what I wanted, she didn't even wash my whole head, she washed the top and that's it, I had to call and go to this other place to get my hair fixed

She got me checked in and I waited three minutes for Alex. She cuts good hair! Bangs are banging and my hair feels great. During my cut, three other girls were taking down Christmas decorations and sweeping and mopping. Music is nice. Smiles all around, for the most part. It's not an over the top friendly place (no hugs or fake conversations) but it's not cold or depressing or uncomfortable. Just the way I like it. I'll be back in two weeks for a bang trim. Thanks !

What I asked for and received are two different things. I asked for a certain style, did not…read morereceive that style, in fact the hair in the back is cut choppy and not a good straight cut, and the layering requested in the pic I gave was not given. Of course they offered for me to return today to fix it or another stylist which I'd have to pay to help fix it a week from now. Somehow that just doesn't set right with me. I asked for the very best person and was willing to pay quite a bit as I haven't been to a salon in 10 years. Broke my heart to walk out of there like I had to (very unhappy). Felt rushed especially with the curling iron portion. I did not request a wave flip, the picture I gave was for an under end curl. Anyway...the style I asked for was nothing like what I was given. So sad when I walked out of there after waiting 10 years and being so excited for a new cut and style.

I had gone to David's a few times the last time I lived here right before we moved, but I totally…read moreforgot about it when we moved back...until I had a bad experience at another salon and then was ransacking my brain for a new place. I'm glad I finally remembered! There is no receptionist, but you'll be greeted when you walk in by whoever is there. You can tell as you watch the stylists and the clients that pretty much everyone knows everyone and they're all regulars and it feels very warm and inviting. It's just a small place but it's very nicely decorated--not your typical "strip mall" type of hair salon for sure. I always wait until just about the last minute for my appointments (meaning I decide "Oh crap, I'd really like to get my hair cut tomorrow!") and Karla was able to get me in no problem...plus she was super nice and sweet. She was very attentive to what I wanted and had some suggestions. The cut was great and she was able to straighten it just fine (you hear that, stylist at http://www.yelp.com/biz/transformations-salon-jacksonville#hrid:4SMg-Xv4Z6IYWI5SzSPPxw). The only thing that's a little strange is that you pay your stylist directly, and at that moment, Karla didn't take credit cards (I can't vouch for the others). She did mention she had a cell app to take CC payments but it wasn't working at the moment, but promised she would work on it for my next appointment. But to their credit, she did take a check so at least I wasn't worried about trying to drum up some cash. (Though, if I had no form of payment on me, it feels the type of place that would likely have no problem of you coming back later to pay.) I would definitely recommend this place to anyone.
