Anyone one here, knows any link where there will be a diagram of the epidermal cell of the root hair cell?
If not, could you please explain to me everything about the epidermal cell of the root hair.

Welcome to PhysicsForums, however, this is the sort of thing you can Google (Image Search?) for:
http://lmgtfy.com/?q=root+hair+cell

Conveniently enough, there are several pictures (and a link to the full results of the image search) that are at the top of the page. If you're looking for a description, the Wikipedia page is a good start (basically, it's a cell with one side really elongated, and the increased surface area helps it absorb water / nutrients / minerals):
