Times are typical, not a promise — if your hair needs longer, we say so before we start. Current pricing shows when you book.
Comb coils or two-strand starts, parted to a grid built around your density and how you like to wear them.
Wash, root work, and a set. Every four to six weeks keeps new growth even without over-tightening.
Tool or finger method. Holds through workouts, swims and humidity when you can't sit every month.
Thinning roots, split locs, marriages, reattachment. Send photos ahead and we'll plan it before you come in.
Deep clean for buildup, then moisture back in. Worth it once or twice a year, or after a long stretch away.
Fifteen minutes to look at your hair and talk through a plan. No pressure to book the same day.
Lead loctician
Ruth has been locking hair for over a decade. Most of her clients have been in her chair for years — which is the only review of a loctician that really counts.
One client at a time. No double-booking, no rushing your set to get to the next person. If your hair needs longer than the booking says, it gets longer.
"She's been caring for my locs for the past year, and the love and attention she puts into her work shows every single time." LaDonna Hurn · Google review

"My locs had been worked on by different locticians over time. Ruth confidently assured me she would fix them — and she absolutely delivered. When she finished, I fell in love with my locs all over again. I can finally say I've found my forever loctician."
"She's been caring for my locs for the past year, and the love and attention she puts into her work shows every single time. I wouldn't trust anyone else with my hair. If you're looking for someone who truly cares, I highly recommend Ruth."
"She did my hair exactly how I wanted and communicated through the whole process. She is very educated when it comes to all hair types! If you come across this salon you found a gem."
"I have been a client of Ruth's for years and she never disappoints. If you are looking for a skilled, friendly and honest stylist, check Ruth out."
