I had to leave my longtime hairstylist in SF when I moved to Marin, and I spent years trying…read moredifferent stylists with good reviews. They all gave nice haircuts, but none of them understood my hair. I have naturally wavy Asian hair, thick, textured, and not the kind you can cut like fine hair. They'd flatten the heck out of my hair and cut it. My hair would look good for one day and then never look the same again. Then I found Tin after seeing a few photos of Asian girls who got their hair cut by him, and I am SO glad I did. He genuinely understands my hair type. He doesn't just give a standard cut--he tweaks the shape, layers, and texture so it works for my hair and for my everyday styling. For the first time since moving, my hair looks great the next day... and the next! He listens, gives thoughtful opinions without being pushy, and never tries to sell you products. He's easygoing, easy to talk to, and makes the whole appointment feel relaxed and enjoyable. If you have Asian hair or thicker, wavy hair, go see Tin. He gets it. And I couldn't be happier with the results.

I had my haircut about 1 week before my wedding and I was looking for a quick touch up. I came…read moreacross Hair by Tin Thi on Yelp. I was a bit worried because Asian male hair can often be tricky to cut and mess ups show up big time if there are mistakes. I decided to give him a try and I'm so glad I did. My hair looked amazing and I actually had a bunch of compliments the week leading up to my wedding. I barely needed any hair product. He also gave me a bunch of tips on how to style my hair. Overall, worth the cost. Def a premium haircut for a very fair price.

It's long overdue that I put into words how much I value the care, artistry, and intention behind…read moreCooper Alley. I've been coming here since their earlier location, and the consistency has been remarkable. Coming from a European background, I've found it surprisingly difficult to find a truly reliable hair salon in the U.S. I kept my hair long for years -- partly out of caution -- until one of Cooper Alley's apprentices approached me during May Madness event in San Rafael. I took a chance, and it reset my relationship with hair salons entirely. I trust stylists again. In fact, I now tend to measure other salons by whether they carry the same product lines Cooper Alley does -- the best in the world. Rick Cooper, the founder, is an artist in the truest sense. His influence extends far beyond this salon; through his training, there are now dozens of trusted salons across Marin and the Bay Area -- a quiet but significant legacy. Ally, a co-founder, has an exceptional eye for color. Alyona, a newer co-owner originally from Odessa, Ukraine, brings clarity, conviction, and range to everything she touches. Miriam adds a refined European sensibility, and the next generation -- including Holland and Cathy -- carry the craft forward with confidence and care. Cooper Alley isn't just a salon. It's a gold standard.

Plenty of parking and brunch places afterwards to meetup with hubby. There's something for everyone, and it feels safe. They consistently have clean towels when I choose to self blow dry, in addition to their amenities. What would we do without these touch up angels - not really a question! They always acknowledge customers who walk-in, and staff are very knowledgeable with helpful advice/products. 'Til next time ~ happy roots and see you on Yelp (SYOY)!

She was very accommodating and we scheduled one for a few hours after my call. I came in a little before my appointment and there was no wait. Dilsa was very personable and sweet, all while giving me a fresh cut. I'm very particular about my hair, and she made sure it was to my liking. As for styling, I'm usually not a fan of salon styling, only to go home and fix it. Dilsa gave me some beautiful curls that lasted all day. The price was reasonable and overall my experience was wonderful.

Kim is fantastic!…read more After a disastrous experience at Ulta, I came to Yelp in search of somewhere to get a haircut. Trouble was, many places in Marin are closed on Sundays and Mondays. Thank goodness I found Kim on here! I was worried she'd be all booked up on Sunday but I messaged her hoping we could get squeezed in. I got a response in less than an hour! She was able to fit us both in. I'm picky with my hair. I love my length so I really only like to get the split ends trimmed and some layers added to freshen it up. Often I leave salons with less hair than I had hoped, but she knew exactly what I wanted and cut it perfectly! On top of that, she is very friendly. :) She even gave me tips on how to get my stick straight hair to curl. I've not yet had time to try it, but I'm saving those tips for the next time I attempt it. I have finally found a place I like in Marin. I will return here again when it's time for another cut.
