I have been coming to Yu Jin for 6 years. I even followed her over to Irvine from her previous location. I absolutely love my cut every single time. She knows exactly what is best for my hair type and face shape and lifestyle and lets me know what will work politely and professionally. The salon is always so welcoming and very clean. She even has expresso to offer. She and her staff are always so friendly and kind. I have even recommended friends who need cut and color to her and they have made her their permanent hair dresser as well. I always trust her and as long as she is still doing hair I will be coming to her.

Yujin has been cutting my hair for 3+ years now. I was very confident that she will be able to rescue my mom's hair. Her hair is very thin and breaks easily. But look at her hair now! It looks fuller and healthier. Thank you Yujin!

Love Yu Jin Choi she does amazing hair like always my hair came out amazing like always .

This review is long overdue. I can't even remember how many times I've been to see Yujin for my hair. I have never walked out unhappy with the results, whether I'm going from long to medium to pixie! -- and the varying colors I've had done over the years. My son was with me last visit and got his haircut, too. He also has made Yujin his hair person now. Like mother like son. If you come here, you won't be disappointed.

Haircut done in June 2024

I've been to this salon for about 4 years now and every time I would leave satisfied! Yujin has always been consistent and very attentive. Her vibe is also very friendly and welcoming. I'll miss her haircuts since I'll be moving to Asia this year. For those that want to get that K-pop or k-drama style haircut you should consider giving this place a try! I've updated this review to include some new pictures. Make sure to make a reservation a few days before because her schedule has gotten very busy haha.

If you are in search of magic this is your place. Their services are commendable. BK nails just made my zero size nails into something so beautiful and cute! And Joyce made my hair look prettier than ever! Feeling pampered

I've gone to Allen five times now solely for haircuts, and there's a reason I keep coming back…read more It's surprisingly hard to find a stylist who truly excels at cutting hair, especially when most social media and Yelp pages focus almost entirely on color services. Allen is incredibly detail-oriented, and I leave happy with my haircut every single time. I originally planned to grow out my bob after dyeing my hair dark brown from blonde, but I hated the awkward in-between length, so I went back to Allen to refresh it instead. I'm so glad I did. His pricing is very reasonable, and his cutting technique really shows his expertise. Highly recommend booking with him. Thank you, Allen! I'll see you again in a few months, because I've officially decided to keep my hair short for a bit longer :)

This is my second time going to Moc Hair Studio and I didn't want to write this so I could gate…read morekeep Allen and his amazing work but I'm just so happy I finally found someone who can get me EXACTLY what I show with inspo pics. The first time I went to Allen was actually to fix my hair from my previous hair person. I was almost in tears because my hair was orange literally the week after I got it done and dropped so much money. my hair felt so dry and looked like I havent gotten my hair done in a year. I tried to tell myself it doesn't look that bad but the more I looked at it, the more upset I got. So I was looking for someone on yelp to help me fix this and came across Moc Hair Studio. The reviews were great and although I was nervous I couldn't stand to look at my hair anymore the way it was so I took the leap of faith and gave it a try. Allen was so informative and let me know what exactly my previous hair person did to make it look like that. He explained what he will do to fix it and throughout the entire process I could tell how meticulous he was. I felt like I was in good hands and after he was done, my hair looked like what I wanted it to look like in the first place!! I was so impressed with his work that I decided the next time I needed my hair done I'm coming back. Fast forward to yesterday.. I wanted a change with my hair so I decided to go back to Allen and see what magic he could work. I wanted to try something a bit different from what I usually go for and I knew Allen could do it but from previous trauma of going to the same person multiple times and never getting exactly what I wanted, I was still scared. Again he calmed my nerves by taking his time and making sure everything looked perfect. I've never been to anyone before where I felt like I was his only customer ever by the way he was taking second third and even fourth looks to make sure the color is right, the hair is even on both sides, and the hair is healthy and not damaged!! I am once again blown away with his work and I cannot recommend him enough!! Thank you so much Allen!!

I made an appointment went there. Was seen 10 minutes late but all good. Nice hair wash. Chloe was amazing. Showed her my style, worked with me, was patient, used scissors and told me about a quick down perm to keep my hair from floofing out so it can grow out. Not salesman at all. I had no idea how much the cut was going to be. Shocked. 40 bucks. That's it. I went to another highly rated salon in Irvine and it cost 60 bucks and he ruined my hair. Going to for sure come back for Chloe. They also play non stop k pop and are all Korean but speak English.

I showed my stylist the cut I wanted and expressed the length I wanted as well. She suggested to make it longer and I agreed, surely she had the best intentions in mind. I wanted layers and walked out with a long bob. My stylist was too scissor happy. She hacked it all off in 15 minutes. The shaping is atrocious and its way shorter than I had originally expressed. She had cut 6 inches of my hair off and looked regretful at the end. Even her coworker was expressing in Korean how short it was. My hair is a mess and it's too short now to be saved. Yet, I still had to pay a whooping $90 for it. The owner of the business also seems to be gaslighting and bullying anyone who gives them a negative review on here. I will not be recommending anyone nor will I be returning.

I appreciate that she checks in with me to see if I'm happy with the progress at each stage of the cut. I will make the drive from SD just to see her. I'm not sure how my haircuts just get better with each visit (literally not exaggerating look at the photos). Booking an appointment is a breeze since she's so responsive.

Y'all, let me put you ON this place. Jessie/Jin is the best. The first time I came in was last year…read morefor a hair cut. I had just moved to the area again and wanted to find a hairstylist during my time here. I read a review that said she'll let you know her honest opinion and I'm so glad because for me personally, I would hate it if I came in wanting something and the hairstylist thinks it's ugly (but is quiet about it) and I walk out feeling regretful that I wanted to try xyz lol. My first haircut came out nicely after we chatted about what I wanted and what she thinks would look best, and she recommended me a brown I should try in the future. Today is that future time. It's my second time here! I came in knowing vaguely what I wanted (Some sort of lighter brown with bangs since I had black hair with no bangs lol). We chatted and then I simply trusted the process. She ended up giving me curtain bangs that can also be a little wispy also, and cut my hair to a length that looked soooo good. There was so much attention to detail when she was cutting too. It was great. For the color, she said that a lighter color might not actually look the best on me and a subtle brown might be better! I was pretty down for whatever she thought looked good so I trusted the process again. Let me tell you... this subtle brown looked so good with the cut. Also, my hair? Soft as HECK. It was kinda gritty before so I was shook when I touched my hair after the appt. She chatted with me lots and also gave me space too. It was a great balance and also she answered my questions!! I always have so many questions and she answered them all for me!! Including... how to style my hair because I suck at those things. I'll take any advice and tips I can get. Price is reasonable for OC too! TLDR; I walked in with messy hair that made me look dead inside and walked out with softer dyed hair AND styling knowledge. If that isn't a win, I don't know what is.
