Boho bob knotless braids (Hair included) Hair wash and dry
by Vicky Mbah
I overall had a good experience. I was there for a long time, but it didn’t really feel like a long time (for knotless, boho bob with tricolors). It w...as a clean, comfortable, and calm environment- which I deeply appreciated. Vicky has very gentle hands, perhaps too gentle for a hair wash but was perfect for blow drying and braiding. I will give a few critiques about my experience. The first is in regards to preparation. I followed the instructions listed in the rules of the shop- to put a note, when paying deposit, detailing the requests and specifications for my appointment. I left a very detailed note and no one read that comment before confirming my appointment. When I arrived, I had to ask what color they were using, because they were only separating 1B, making an assumption about what I wanted. I would’ve loved for the person who confirmed my appointment to have read my notes, and then correspond with me about my appointment- whether through phone calls or email or text… and then I believe Ruth spoke to me on the phone to clarify my request and she tried to blame me or make an excuse like sometimes they don’t have the color in stock and if a client books close to the appointment requested they might not get the hair they desire… no, I chose the colors listed in the shop- so I assumed that it’s in stock or easily accessible. All of it was for not because Ruth had the colors as I assumed she would. It also would’ve been nice to receive directions on entering her place of business, because you have to go to the back of the house, through the side gate. I knocked on the front door and I didn’t want to disturb her family. Lastly, although Vicky is skilled and gentle, she is a bit slow- especially with parting the hair… and sadly I can’t tell my middle part is a bit squiggly. It’s not super noticeable at all, but when looking closely. Also, the videos she took were kind of long and happened multiple times.I’ve never had it be a whole production before lol. It wasn’t horrible and I didn’t feel pressured but next time I may decline the request. All in all, I had a lovely experience.and I will utilize their services next time I’m in the DMV. Show more

Hello ma’am thank you for the review and I’m so sorry about making you feel responsible. I only saw your appointment today. I didn’t even see it yesterday. I had an emergency surgery on Saturday and I wasn’t able to properly go through booking that were made close to appointments. That’s why I said so not to accuse you of anything 🙏. I saw that u left a note and realize your appointment only this morning. I was certain the slot was already closed. I’m sorry about the inconvenience and misunderstanding.🙏

4 stitch braids cornrows (Men&women)
by Ruth Echick
I am a black gay male and I am so disappointed with my experience. They were very rude, she did not want to do my hair fully, and still wanted money. ...They were unwelcoming and they will talk about you, and the space is very uncomfortable with an unpleasant smell! I would not recommend this place especially if you’re a part of the LGBT community. Show more

it’s rather unfortunate that u came up here and wrote this about your experience with us. First of all u booked a 4 stitch braids style, your hair wasn't upto 6inches long as a standard length required for the style. U asked to washed your hair and we did, about to do your hair u showed a 12 to 18 stitch braids complex hair style. I (Ruth) politely and professionally told u that "we couldn’t do what u were asking for at the moment becuz it took longer and will affect our schedule, also told u it will cost more. However we could stick to the straight 4stitchbraids u had booked. " U decided not to get your hair done. We asked for the $20 cost of the wash and blow out already done. All this happened with another client in the shop. No one was rude or disrespectful about who u choose to be (gay). I have done so many gay male clients and non will or has ever said anything negative about their experiences. We offer free consultation, if u had done that before booking a lot of hard feelings from your end could have been avoided. It’s okay if u can’t afford my prices, someone else’s price might work for u, it was needless for u to have texted again saying “ugly African bitch"and more. Later on come here acting like the victim.

Medium Boho knotless ( Hair included)
by Ruth Echick
Real Review, Please Read; After having locs for almost three years. I did the big chop. Once my hair grew long enough. I knew I wanted braids. I went... searching booksy for braiders in my area. I came across (Ruth'sGlowing Braids). I did my research of course. I read through Ruth's policy, checked out her profile and read through every single review. 🔍😂 I also reached out to her directly to inquire about her services and to get a better feel for her professionalism and character. I can actually say, she communicates well and is very welcoming. Now, I was ready to take the next step. I booked my appointment and tipped ahead of time. Because I encourage good service. She messaged me about one of the colors I requested was hard to find. Though she provided a great substitute for the color I originally ask for. My anxiety was still through the roof. Because this was my first encounter with her and her prices can be a little intimidating. Anyway, I arrived and she started my hair on time. She works out of the back of her home. The shop was clean and well equipped with everything needed to get the job done. She had two other ladies assisting her and they were friendly and professional as well. I felt at ease and I was out of the chair on schedule. My hair is laid to the most high and I feel beautiful. 🙌🏾👸🏾 I am more than satisfied and my money was well spent. Ms. Ruth, you definitely made magic. I would not hesitate to return. I highly recommend your services. To anyone whom is on the fence about booking, like I was. Just Do It‼️💯 Show more

Medium Large Boho knotless ( Hair included)
by Ruth Echick
My hair looks lovely. I came for medium large boho braids at 9am and left shortly after 2pm. The prices are steep but my hair is very neat. My only ne...gative is that the salon chair that I was sitting in was very uncomfortable; it leans down on the left side making it a bit painful. Happy with my hair. though! Show more

Oh my I’m so sorry about that . I have a new chair but I discovered it’s too high for my height to braid on that’s why I used the old chair. No one has complained yet, however I got another chair and it will be ready when next u come. I can see it’s your 2nd time coming and I know 3rd will be a charm ❣️🙏🙌. Thanks for appreciating the hair do. 🙏
