Marin Hair Co.

Logan Square·Hair & color·$$$

Marin earns seventh place on the strength of its staff depth — ten-plus years across the board is not a common claim in Logan Square’s saturated salon market, and the color work reflects it.

Established in 2015 and certified as a Green Circle salon — diverting 98% of waste from landfill — Marin Hair Co. has built its identity around a craft-first, low-volume model. The California Avenue location is appointment-only, which enforces the pace. Davines as the product partner signals the commitment to both performance and lower chemical exposure.

The clientele spans the corridor from Bucktown through Avondale — a professional and arts-adjacent mix that responds to custom color work done without shortcuts. A salon for the client who has stopped explaining what they want and just needs someone who already knows.
