Ruthy Hewson getting hair cut

Ruthy Hewson

"I would walk past a salon where everyone's always doing straight hair, and it would make me feel accustomed to the fact that no one could do my hair."

A woman sits in a chair at a hair salon while a woman standing behind her examines her hair.

A woman stands behind another woman who is sitting down and holds up a part of her hair to cut it.

A woman smiles in a black and white portrait.

"The one thing that is permanent about our industry is change … we are embracing being able to do different textures of hair."

Two women stand at basins washing the hair of two other women who are sitting down on recliner chairs.
