Mercedys Ruby, a barber at Anomaly Hair Collective, cuts her wife Brianne’s hair on a Sunday afternoon. Ruby says her first introduction to hair styling occurred about a year ago after watching a 20-minute YouTube tutorial to trim Brianne’s hair. She applied to beauty school soon after that. “I know Bri is going to be happy with just about anything,” Ruby says. “So there’s no pressure, and I get to grow my creativity with her.”
