NO easier method to unlock bootloader, than having it done through Xiaomi, takes 15 days wait time.
Easiest way to root would be flashing magisk using TWRP.

If there is not, can someone please kindly point me to a guide that tells you how to root this phone. Thank you.
Yes, ask your operator for an unlock code.
Rooting, easiest way if you're on a ROM with 2.3.5 or less is to use the zergRush exploit.

Would it be pretty simple to root, unlock SIM and then unroot?
Will this work and will there be any disadvantages to it?

1 Downgrade to 4.4.2
2 Root phone
3 Install recovery for locked bootloader
4 Flash rooted 4.4.4 zip in recovery
5 latest firmware and root remains
I am new to Sony devices (been a Samsung guy for years). I have had my Z2 less than a fortnight but already I'm itching to root it etc, problem is it seems a lot more complicated than Samsung devices. I was always switching between roms on my S4/note 2. I am on the latest firmware and would like to root it to be able to use xposed but I'm scared of messing it up and as the phone is under warranty don't want to end up with a paper weight.
Has anyone done a detailed tutorial for newbies like myself?
Thanks in advance

It's not really that hard and there are also of resources online that can guide you.
1 Downgrade to 4.4.2 is required as noone had found a vulnerability with 4.4.4.
2 Root phone
For step 1 and 2, Have a look at this http://www.xda-developers.com/android/how-to-root-the-sony-xperia-z2-xda-developer-tv/
3 install recovery for lock bootloader
Have a look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785598
4 install a 4.4.4 zip through recovery. I recommend this one as its basically stock http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z2/development/stock-4-4-4-23-0-1-0-167-bug-free-t2929402

It is ur device and it should be ur choise. Nothing comes for free, u will have to take risk. Though I would recomend using global stable rom to unlock bootloader unofficially.

Do you have a link for this Kingroot info?
I'm looking for a way to root without unlocking bootloader.
Thanks!
I would say no, it's not safe by reading many complains after unlocking, bricks etc.
Although the risk is high, if you are careful enough and never flash official ROM without deleting the bootloader, your phone should be safe and sound.
Even if you have brick your phone, you could always use the testing point for hard reflash. Of course this method is your last resort and could be quite unsafe to do so.
Rooted 7.2.3!
I rooted 7.2.3 made my own cracked boot image .. Ihv had not issues using the unofficial method to unlock.. King roothttp://king.myapp.com/myapp/kdown/img/NewKingrootV4.85_C139_B255_en_release_2016_03_29_105203.apk

Allright.
A Phone always comes with a locked bootloader so if you don't unlocked it yourself it is still locked.
To flash twrp you will need a unlocked bootloader and to unlock a bootloader you need rootacess.
I used the app rlashr to flash twrp and boot in recovery. Don't forget to type 'su' in a terminal before you use it (at the guide how to unlock a bootloader)
This guide tells you how to do everything:
(Follow these steps: root -> bootloader-> recovery(twrp))

Just wondering, in my Xperia there is a method of rooting without unlocking the bootloader. Maybe it's a different case for Huawei. Anyways, thank you for the reply.
Would be great without unlocking :/
