About Ruby Glow

A studio where craft
meets care.

It started with a little girl turning her dolls into something more beautiful. Today, that same hands-on love guides every appointment at Ruby Glow.

Verónica Mendez brings 13+ years of expertise — trained at Wella, Redken, L'Oréal, and certified in Brazilian Blowout and GK Keratin. Each client is a story, and each visit is built around you. Spanish & English spoken.

Kind words

Loved by clients across NYC.

Verónica is the only stylist who has ever truly listened to what I wanted. My balayage looks completely natural and the color has lasted months.
