Ruth has been doing my hair for the last 20+ years. I always come in with my hair looking like a rats nest and leave a new woman. She is very meticulous when my hair cut and color and takes extra time with styling to make sure every hair is in it's place. I really like that she uses organic supplies which keeps my hair healthy. I would recommend Ruth to any man, woman or child. She does an amazing job and is makes the experience fun!

Ruth is amazing. It is very hard as a guy to find someone that can cut hair properly, let alone do a great job. I always leave the salon feeling confident and happy with my hair. Ruth is so sweet, caring, and easy to talk to. After seeing her for a while, my wife went in to see her and has never been happier. She always looks forward to seeing ruth and comes home glowing. My wife even had ruth cut, color, and style her hair for our wedding. She looked incredible on our big day and was so happy with her hair! I highly recommend her to every man and woman.

Ruth does an amazing job styling, highlighting and layering my hair! I only trust Ruth with my hair and she is the one of the kindest women I know. I've been seeing her for a couple of years and she is extremely talented. If you're searching for a new or better hairstylist then make an appointment with Ruth. She works at eXclusive Spa in Santa Rosa on Mendocino Avenue. You can make your appointment by calling the spa at (707)-528-8266.

Ruth has been doing my hair for eons. I finally had the privilege of having her do my wedding day updo and makeup. I couldn't have been more pleased.
