    Tim is a great barber. I live in NYC most of the year but when I'm in San Diego I go to him. I have thin hair that requires a lot of attention and Tim is very detail oriented, cutting certain spots in order to give the appearance of more coverage. I tried a few barbers before him who had high ratings in the SD area who would give me a generic haircut in 15 minutes and fill in the rest of the time with chitchat but Tim really gets into the details and listens to feedback (even though I'm terrible at communicating what I want). Side note: watching planes fly into airport from the barber chair is also pretty cool.
