Color & Extension Specialists for Birmingham, MI
Rooted Salon is in Grand Blanc, about 50 minutes to an hour up I-75 from downtown Birmingham. Birmingham has no shortage of salons, so we won't pretend we're the closest option. We're the one worth the drive when the work calls for a specialist: bespoke extensions, a color correction, or balayage built to grow out gracefully.
The drive from Birmingham
Woodward Avenue gets you to I-75, and I-75 north does nearly all the rest. Grand Blanc sits just off the freeway, so the last few minutes are local streets to our studio at 214 McFarland St, with parking on site. Heading north in the middle of the day often means driving against the heaviest traffic rather than with it.
Plan on roughly 41 miles each way. We'd rather you book a time that avoids the rush than race the clock to make it.
What's worth the drive
Extensions are where the drive pays off most. Our hand-tied and hidden-bead sets are color-matched weft by weft, planned around your natural density, and installed without glue, tape, or heat. The consultation and the install are separate visits because your hair is ordered after the match, so you'll know exactly what you're driving up for each time.
Before any of that, start with Ask Rooted, our free online consultation. Share photos and your hair history from home, and we'll tell you honestly what's involved before you spend an afternoon on I-75.
