About

"What good is a hairstyle if the client doesn't have the face shape, hair type or lifestyle to pull off the look?" asks Jim Koktavy, Owner of root.

"Our consultations are tailor made to you! Your lifestyle, your face and your hair type. Giving you the confidence to walk out of our salon and be able to create that same look.

root features expert stylists who receive nine months of advanced training in the latest cut and color techniques among several other important services.

We have two locations, one in the Selby area of St. Paul which features great restaurants and boutiques. Root greets clients with an organic, chic and comfortable atmosphere. Our second location in Linden Hills is a charming neighborhood nestled between Lake Calhoun and Lake Harriet, it is often referred to as "a small town in the city".
