I have been dyeing my hair since I was about 12 years. (I always like to change up my look with a fresh pop of color) I am 26 now. in my 14 years of being a client, I have seen many hair stylists and I can say with utmost certainty that Marin is the best one I have ever had. When I first contact her she was enthusiastic and sweet but also very clear on what i should expect with my current hair and my goal. She had me come in for a consultation and to see my hair for herself so she could get and give me and more pinned down recommendation. I have never had that before. Every other hair stylist saw my hair the same day they were dying it. My first appointment with her was incredible. She had seen all my inspiration photos, tested my hair. (in the consultation we came up with a timeline on when I should be able to reach my goal. AGAIN making it super clear that it would all depend on how my hair actually reacted once we started on the journey.) She promised that she would keep me in the loop as she worked on my hair and she 100% did that. I have worked with stylists who tried everything to get me to my hair goal in one sitting and cost me the quality of my hair - making it incredibly damaged (no shade they could have been new and I know the fear of reprimand is strong). Marin will try to help you reach your goal but will never sacrifice the quality of your hair to reach it. During one of my appointments, if she saw from working on my hair a better route to go she would explain to me. And she would never change anything without my ok first. Sometimes pausing for 10 to 15 min just so I could ask questions and not feel rushed to make a decision. It is so nice to have a hair stylist that I can trust with my hair, who will explain things to me over and over until I understand. Who will tell me her opinion. Who will ask me questions to better pin down what I am actually looking for. Who will share her expertise and experience to sometimes give me a better look then the one I had brought as an inspiration photo. It is very clear Marin is passionate about her work because I wear it every day and can see it! But she also cares a great deal about her clients and it is something I will be forever grateful. She is currently saved in my phone as "Hair Goddess" and I can not think if a better description. I have been seeing her since 2018 and have loved each and every visit. She even answers my styling questions over text when I am attempting to try something new with my hair. I would 100% recommend Hair by Marin. Best money i ever spent. read more

I can't believe in a couple of months will mark a year since I started going to Marin. She has been phenomenal! When I first went to her, my hair was fried and so sad looking. I went to a consultation with her and to be honest I was afraid she would look at my hair and send my on my way with how unhealthy it was. I expressed to her how I wanted my hair to have a more natural look but with also some subtle caramel hidden highlights. My hair had a lot of blonde though! This is why I thought she would give me the NOPE! lol.. I also wanted volume and to achieve this she suggested we do tape extensions and that way I wouldn't be damaging my hair. She DELIVERED!!! I have been so happy with my hair and everyone always complements on how healthy it looks. I have been so bold now to just not even curl or straighten my hair and just wear it in a natural wavy style after letting it air dry! My hair routine has been so much easier now especially when it comes to me just wearing it for work. I have been going back to Marin because she will always listen and I can tell she cares for my hair and is truly in love with what she does for others! Note: Not what she does for herself but what she does to make us feel beautiful, more comfortable with our hair and confident! She has never overpriced her services for me and I have been to some pricey stylists that weren't nearly as worth as Marin's works of art with hair! Love love love her kindness, passion and energy! It's an honor to have her as a hairstylist and will continue to have her work her magic on my hair! read more

HIGHLY recommend Marin!!! She has the most amazing vibe!!! I found her work on Instagram after a friend tagged her stylist and followed her for a while before I decided to give her services a try. I first went to her for a keratin treatment since I have very coarse hair and needed something to help with frizz and cut down my drying time. I absolutely loved the results my hair was so much more manageable and had never looked so good! A few months ago I had my first color experience with her. I appreciated her detailed booking process so there are no surprises and the time she spent with me during the consultation to ensure she understood what I was looking for. I had not colored my hair in 3 years and my dark natural color was starting to be to bland for me so I asked her for "color, dimension to get that JLO Glow". That's exactly what she gave me. I love my hair! Everywhere I go I get compliments and truly feel like she executed my vision. Marin you have a forever friend, fan and client in me. I enjoy all our talks about the struggles of being small business owners, women in business and how we have a passion for making a difference in this world through our work! If you are in DFW you need to follow Marin's work on Instagram...you will fall in love with it and join her many satisfied clients. read more

ECO FRIENDLY SALON!! Being in a business that is not eco friendly at its core, you really have to educate yourself and take every small step you can to create an eco conscious/friendly/whatever work place. Marin goes above and beyond to find brands that are not only cutting waste and harmful ingredients, but are also totally amazing and actually work! She NEVER double books. It was an issue I had with my previous salon and I just really really appreciate the one on one attention. Plus she's bomb so its great to be able to chat with her! BUT this also means she doesn't have time to waste. She takes her business very seriously, and as a self employed business owner I so so appreciate and understand this. I am very low maintenance: I get an all over color and usually just a trim bc I'm growing out! So, I don't feel that I am the best reviewer for color (however she nails my "still brown but flirting with black" color). Just go check out her INSTAGRAM @hairby.marin and read read read these other amazing reviews! read more

I got my very first color from Marin after many years of wanting a change but being hesitant to get it done out of fear that someone would damage my hair. I immediately felt at ease from my very first interaction with her. She took a thoughtful and careful approach that made me feel comfortable through the entire process. She took her time explaining what she thought would work for my goals and with my specific hair. The result was phenomenal and I instantly felt more confident and more beautiful walking out of her salon. I can also see that she takes her craft so seriously though all of the investments she makes on her continued education to be the very best that she can be. She's worth every penny!! I'm really bummed that I don't live in Dallas anymore and that it's so hard to travel with the pandemic because there is no one better. If you're looking for someone I cannot recommend her enough. read more

Marin is the sweetest and just so uplifting and positive! She's knowledge in the industry and genuinely cares about her clients. She takes the time to explain to better manage ones expectations.

The experience alone with Marin is the best, you get 100% undivided attention and she's just a beautiful positive soul! read more
