  • β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜… If you're looking for the ultimate self-care treatment, Caitlin is your girl! A true mix of education and relaxation, Caitlin taught me so much about my scalp health, while delivering a luxurious scalp facial. The experience was 10/10 - I left feeling fresh, clean, and more knowledgeable re: what my scalp needs moving forward. I can't wait to book my next with her!

  • β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜… If you have been wanting to treat yourself to the scalp facial just DO IT already. I had this done recently and I cannot say enough good things about it. Caitlin is thorough and doesn’t miss a step. The pampering experience is out of this world and will make you want to come back again and again. Even better when you leave your hair and scalp will be squeaky clean. I cannot wait to get it done again. Best scalp facial out there!

    I absolutely LOVE The Root Room! Caitlin is SO consultative and knowledgeable. I went in for the Scalp Facial because my scalp had been flaking and wow she changed my life! From getting the microbiome and health of my scalp back to healthy to recommending new products and a different hair care routine; to just even educating me on my current hair and scalp health!! I will absolutely be going back for her other services as well. And she’s just awesome. BOOK IT!!
