History
Urban Roots is a true labor of love for Anthony & Pilita Blanchard. This husband & wife team decided that it was time to join forces and start a business that combined both of their passions and skills. With Over 20 years of experience as a stylist, Anthony knew it was time for them to open up their own salon. Pilita wanted to combine the skills and lessons she learned while working for Deepak Chopra & Dr. David Simon...as well as for the Lululemon hub in Vancouver, BC...with her love of charitable causes and all things creative, handmade, organic & local. Together, the Blanchards have created an inviting space for people in the community. Combining hair services with a small boutique and community meditation classes just felt right. They welcome their long time clients & friends...as well as all of the wonderful new people in the community, many of whom have peaked their heads in the Urban Roots doors & windows to watch the progress being made every week, to come in & say Hi!
Specialties
Welcome to our home away from home! Urban Roots Community Salon & Boutique has a comfortable, rustic farmhouse style that makes you feel more like you walked into the owners' living room, rather than a hair salon. Fitting...because every client that walks through the door is treated like family! We have a strong committment to our community and believe that beauty reveals itself from the inside, out....so we will also be offering meditation classes and a small boutique area where you'll find many organic, natural and local gift items & treasures. Come in for a complimentary consultation. Our senior stylists have over 20 years of experience and are here to listen to your needs. We also specialize in color & highlights, so if you're a nervous first timer...or just want to try something new...we've got you covered! We love what we do...and it shows...with every happy client that walks through our door!
