It started with a chair
and a conversation.
Two stylists. One vision.
With nearly four decades of combined experience between them, Jared and Alishia Fite didn’t just open a salon — they built the one they always wished existed.
The industry had split into two extremes. Big salons that moved fast, ran loud, and treated clients like numbers. And solo suites that felt isolated — closed off from the energy and collaboration that makes great work happen.
Neither felt right.
Rooted was born from a simple belief: people deserve to feel at home in the chair. Not rushed. Not overlooked. Not lost in the noise. A place where the conversation matters as much as the cut. Where every detail is intentional and every client is known by name.
We found our space — intimate enough to feel personal, open enough to feel alive. No chaos, no isolation. Just expert care in a setting designed around you.
This is salon reimagined. This is Rooted.
Grand Blanc, on purpose.
Walk in and you’ll feel it.
The space is warm without trying too hard. Natural light, clean lines, the kind of intentional simplicity that takes real thought to achieve. No sterile white walls. No sensory overload. Just a calm, grounded environment designed to make you exhale the moment you sit down.
What “rooted.” means
Craft
We take our time because your hair deserves it. Every technique we use, we’ve studied, practiced, and refined. We attend advanced education, follow the industry’s best, and never stop learning — because standing still isn’t an option when people trust you with how they face the world.
Community
We’re part of this town. We’ve watched kids grow up, celebrated milestones, and held space during hard seasons. Rooted isn’t just where our chairs are — it’s where our roots are.
Care
Every client is a person, not an appointment slot. We listen before we touch a single strand. We remember details. We follow up. Because genuine care isn’t a service we offer — it’s who we are.
