Stylist and colorist Allison Demorest brings over 20 years of experience, creativity, and care to her work behind the chair.

Allison specializes in color and products that create beautiful, healthy hair without compromise. Born and raised in the Hudson Valley, Allison draws inspiration from the natural world. When she’s not in the salon, you’ll find her hiking, traveling to new places, and deepening her connection to a mindful, intentional lifestyle.

With every cut, color, and conversation, Allison’s goal is simple: to help you feel like the best version of yourself.

“I absolutely love Healing Roots! I finally found a hairdresser that uses non-toxic products. Allison is very skilled at coloring and highlights, and at cutting my hair. My hair is the healthiest it’s been in a long time.”

– CATHY

“Allison is a genius with hair! I have very thick hair, difficult to cut and get it right – if you have thick hair you know what I’m talking about. Allie does an amazing job and I always leave feeling great. I also appreciate that she uses non-toxic products on my hair, it’s always soft and shiny. I’ve found my stylist!”
