Liv helped Sammy and took care of me whilst I was in the salon - they both made my first experience of Ruby’s an absolute delight!

Myself and my daughter are new to the salon and saw Jess today; she was so friendly and capable, giving me advice on what I asked for and I was very happy with what she did (which was exactly what I wanted) but my daughter was gushing about her as soon as we left! ‘ I love Jess, can we go there every time now, I love my hair’ and on and on! So we will definitely be back in the New Year and cannot recommend enough!
