Okay, first of all, ten dollars. Ten dollars! TEN DOLLARS! Holy fuck!
If that's not enough to motivate you to get your rear end into one of Ruth's Hair Styling Salon's seats when it's time to trim your mangy scruff, then let me elaborate:
The place is super-conveniently located in the South End right off of South Boulevard, where there is plenty of street parking. From the moment I walked in, my hairstylist was friendly and casual; within two minutes we were talking like we were old friends. She gave me a great haircut that was stylish, but not too unusual and I got to take as many Dum-Dum lollipops on my way out as the fat kid inside of me could handle.
I gave her a 100% tip because ten dollars.
Couldn't recommend this place more as a place to get your haircut done well, on the cheap, by awesome people at a locally-owned place.
