KEY TAKEAWAYS:

-- Ruby started her journey with humble beginnings and expectations. Finding the hair industry was fate, as she had no intention of building a career in hair and had no idea about the world of stage, shows, and production.

-- Being able to learn means being in a safe space to make mistakes while having the support and confidence knowing someone can step and and save you.

-- As an early adopter to building her brand and clientele, Ruby used MySpace and found Mavens amongst sororities and groups to help grow her book.

-- Ruby became a Bumble and Bumble educator and moved to DC-Maryland-Virginia area.

-- Continuing her lean into technology, she built a big Periscope following and led to her becoming an independent educator.

-- Then, she was pushed out of her salon out of fear she would take the stylists. Then, the stylists ended up leaving anyway.

-- Using social media, Ruby shared so much information and created so much content that she was able to build her reputation, which transcended the virtual world into her reality. This meant salon ownership, people wanting to work with her, and international education.

-- Use AI for scripts and captions on social media!
