Tocco Beauty Salon

This is the first salon I have been to that was consistent every time; I’ve been searching for great hair salons in the Los Angeles /​Orange County area, and through a recommendation I came across this place
Sonia is extremely skilled and has decades of experience in the hair industry. Did you know she’s done hair for the Miss Korea pageants? The value of her work definitely shows in every visit.
I’ve been coming here for the past 6 years now and I’ve got to say, I’ll never be going elsewhere! From hair dye to perm, I’ve never left unsatisfied. Her recommendations are always on point. I have extremely thin hair but somehow, with her magic, my hair always look full and voluminous when I leave!

Been coming to see Sonia for about 5 or 6 years. I usually call ahead to make my appts but have also called for same day appts and she has been able to accommodate me. She is very good at what she does and her price is very reasonable. She is not someone that will talk your ear off or talk nonsense which i really appreciate. My first time i was there i took my time and explained what i wanted. After a few times i can just sit in the chair and let her do her work. Thank you Sonia!

Sonia has been one of the most kind and caring people I have ever met, so it shocks me to hear people think she is rude. But, if I am honest, I thought she was not totally friendly until one day… I had recently been diagnosed with a tumor in my head and Sonia and Stacy noticed one side of my hair was developing faster than the other, so I spilled the beans about the tumor… and they proceeded to care for me in ways I never imagined. Sonia took me aside and prayed for me (in Korean, which was really cool!) and she put me on a prayer chain that reached across the world.
That was 3 years ago, and even though I only go every 6 months or so, Sonia always asks me about EVERYTHING in my life — she remembers my kids and my husband by name, and even though there is a slight language barrier, there is no denying how kind and caring this woman is.
And in terms of hair (salon review, right?), I have long blonde hair and go for cut and highlights. They do a great job, and Sonia is so good at keeping my long layers, and my long bangs (no Dumb and Dumber, here!). She is an expert at cutting my hair. They have never skimped on products, styling or anything. I got Keratin a few years ago and loved the results. I have never had a bad experience, so it is strange to read these other reviews.
And the ambience is great — bright and open and airy. Always offering refreshments, magazines, etc.
NOTHING but praise for Tocco.

I always drive by this place and for one reason or another I wouldn’t be able to come in. My hair stylist had a baby and I have not been able to find someone that does want I want. I finally came in on Tuesday and got a haircut from Stacy. She is the BEST! She did exactly what I wanted, styled it how I like it and left it feeling very healthy. The best part was the price. $ 30!!! Second best part she was not trying to sell me products like at EVERY other salon. I found my new hair stylist

After driving to Korea town for my straight perm for many years I decided to take a chance on this local salon and I am so glad I did. I have been going to Sonia now for about 4 years and she has always done a great job on my hair. I have tried others salons and had some bad experiences. My hair is very curly and frizzy and it always comes out shiny and straight. The salon is very clean and pleasant and I will definitely continue to go there.

Great service. Ask for Stacy she is great I got a haircut and light perm and come out exactly as I wanted. The salon is clean and organized well. I will go back soon.

Since moving to the area about 2 years ago, I was looking for a salon I could switch to. The staff is friendly. I have had good experiences and been treated well. I usually see Stacy. The prices are reasonable and it’s a nice way to spend a few hours with my hair colored and cut the way I want it. Who knows? Maybe I’ll try something new… like a perm next time! :)

I went in about 6 months ago to get my prom hair and makeup done. It was one of the most traumatic experiences I’ve ever had. The lady who was doing my makeup put on foundation that was way too light for my skin and set it with hot pink foundation. She also tried to put on purple eyeshadow on me when I specifically told her I was wearing a peach colored dress. Needless to say, I had to get it redone with very little time somewhere else. As for the hair, it was a very messy job. Also, I paid 50 in cash and wanted to pay 40 on my card. However, I ended up getting charged 90 on my card and I had to come back in the next day to get a refund. It was a horrid way to spend my senior prom getting ready and I do not recommend this salon at all.

I went in about 6 months ago for a Japanese Hair Straightening a little skeptical but they actually did a good job, I got a good price because I bargained with them. I had to go back 2 months later to get $ 150 treatment because my hair was dry and brittle. I went in today to get my retouches done and they were trying to charge me double of what I paid for my full hair. Beware! They have no respect for what you say, I clearly told them I was not going to cut my hair, they were cheap and did not use any product on my ends which left them wavy, then the owner was proceeding to cut it. Not only that but they do not know how to work with colored hair or really curly hair, they left my sisters hair frizzy not straight, fried my sisters and a coworkers hair.

This salon is affordable and the ambiance is great. Sonia is an experienced stylist and I recommend her to all family and friends!

If you’re looking for a nice and friendly hair stylist, DO NOT GO TO SONIA! She has a very pretentious attitude, borderline rude. She will often do what SHE thinks looks good, regardless of your specifications. Her hair cutting skills are fine, but nothing to write home about. Also, on the cheaper end I guess.

Just got my Japanese straight perm yesterday & i love it. All thanks to Stacy! She was very accommodating during the whole treatment even though there were several other customers during that time. If you ever need a haircut ask for Stacy! She knows what she’s doing! I will be taking my BF here soon to get his haircut!

Just got home from having a haircut with Stacy. It was my first time there but I was in desperate need of a haircut so I decided to check this cute place out. Extremely happy with my results. Stacy spent about an hour on my hair and made sure to ask me if I wanted any more thinning or inches taken off. .. basically made sure I didn’t leave the chair unless I was happy with the cut. Besides being a skilled stylist, she was easy to chat with or be silent with and had a great personality which made it a comfortable experience. Affordable price but with the same amount of attention to details that I’ve had at trendy boutique salons. I will definitely be back! (For reference: I got a long layered cut with choppy bangs. I have semi-​wavy thick hair that is a little unruly on it’s own).

I have a love and. Neutral relationship with this salon.
I’ve been here a handful of times and got exactly what I wanted, except for once. Due to a miscommunication, even though I showed an exact picture of what I wanted, she made what I wanted as ombré into a half bright yellow bleach color block. It was such a disaster and I cried. Had to go back 2 days later to try to somewhat neutralize the disaster and it wasn’t possible. This led to me having to chop off half my hair. Triple bleached hair cannot be dyed over it unless you want to look like a poodle and lose all your hair in the shower.
Minus that dramatic incident, this place is a great place for haircuts and coating. DO NOT go there for any complicated dye jobs.

Came here under the recommendation of a friend and will likely return here again. Made an appointment, came in, and Sonia was able to start on me almost right away. Hardly had to wait, good sign already.
First was the initial rinse, I don’t know what shampoo they used but it left my head feeling minty fresh. The cut itself was good and came out exactly how I wanted. I will be coming here again next month when I need a new haircut.

As a male, I hardly ever go to beauty salons but I actually very strongly recommend Tocco. I got a perm for fun (no lie) and Sonia took very good care of me. It looked astonishing and I was the confidently the sexiest I could be. There’s no reason to go anywhere else except Tocco for hair needs. Also, the atmosphere is super relaxing.

I went there today all shaggy and came out feeling like James Bond. Enough said

This place is BUMPIN yo. If you and your friends got nothing to do on a Friday or Saturday night, this is the place to be. Great prices too.
But really, Sonia can cut any type of hair. I’ve changed my hairstyle many times, and I always get it done here. Always left happy and beautiful. She’s very accommodating and will do whatever do help you out.
and just a tip… the owner of the restaurant has a ugly son who visits from time to time. Just be careful

I’m Mexican with an Asian hair cut now. Thanks! Actually I don’t mind the do, I’ve got a lot of compliments on it, but I wasn’t going for that look this time. When I asked you to keep my bangs long I wasn’t kidding. I can clearly see my ears which means my bangs are about 4 inches shorter than the back of my hair.
The good thing is that since you cut my hair it’s been growing like a chia-​pet, therefor I can rapidly get the cut I actually wanted (somewhere else). Look I don’t care about the dry hair theory in which one must cut off all the dry parts in order for it to grow. Woman I have bad ass hair b/​cuz I over process the life out if it, if I followed your theory I’d have a bald head.
Now kindly step away from the scissors.

I’m on a Southern California wide search for a decent salon. I always get cut/​color and am willing to spend 200 – 250 dollars for a decent salon. However upon a recommendation I went to Tocco and I had by far the worst experience that I have ever had with a cut/​color and customer service in my whole life.
It has taken me quite a while to write this review I went to Tocco about a year ago now, but I had to let the anger fade a bit before I could express myself in words that I am allowed to publish.
The 1^st problem was that two different people were working on my hair, the manager/​owner mixed my color which was later applied by an employee, the employee ran out of color halfway threw my color, she proceeded to mix another batch which resulted in half of my head being a noticeably different shade of brown. Yes I said brown, how can you mess that up, my hair is brown and I was getting it colored brown!!! IT’S NOT ROCKET SCIENCE!!!
The 2^nd problem was I selected a very cute cut from their own personal collection of hair style books. It was a layered look, full of body. The manager cut and styled my hair to be stick straight after I specifically told her that I wanted a full look. I left with 2 tone hair that stuck to my head. It was a horrific experience.
The only redeeming quality is that they are cheap!!! I paid 90 total for a cut and color, not bad if they did a good job, but because they traumatized me for life I think even a penny would have been too much. I wish I could give negative stars on this one.
