Mario Tricoci Too

Its just their name! I guess they are probably the most hip place in schaumburg area although they dont have the classy hair touch. They still start the highlights from the roots and old techniques. Balayage is not completely understood by the stylists. Had a haircut that was $ 90 and the stylist chopped of my hair i was trying to grow out. Worst nightmare. Although the management was nice and they let me get my hair fixed from color to highlights, and cut but it was a waste of almost $ 300 dollars and I had to go get my hair done again in a month because it looks that bad.

It’s expensive but I am OK with the experience, it doesn’t blow me away.

Severely disappointed. My confidence is shocked and this place was a complete waste of my money and time.
It seems Mario Tricoci is running on reputation alone nowadays instead of the skill I once associated their stylists with. When someone is paying you upwards of $ 50 for a haircut, you should do as they ask you to– it’s their money and it’s their hair…
I came in to have the back part of my hair cut, specifically I asked for the front to be longer than the back. My hair was about chin length, but the back grows faster and so the cut looked awkward, and I wanted to have the back brought up with the front remaining the same length. I felt this was a simple request– and when she asked me if she could trim up the ends, I thought nothing of it— after all, this would be a $ 50 haircut and I trusted her judgment. My mistake. Not only did my stylist not say a word the whole time, creating an awkward 30 minute experience, but she chopped off nearly all my hair– I was speechless when she finished. She asked me what I thought and all I could say to her was «This isn’t what I asked you to do…» I went into the bathroom afterward and stared at my head in shock– I have been trying to grow out my hair for the last 6 months and this stylist brought me nearly back to square one.

I walked in and right away my hairstylist (kaci) apparently the «most Expirenced» had a stank ass face … I have a lot of hair and curly I **specifically** told the receptionist that when I made my appt. So kaci saw my hair and looked like she just saw a ghost then she asked me if I told them I had a lot of hair when I made the appt So she didn’t straighten my hair BC she only had 30 mins. she gave me a cut that I could give myself DIDNT SAY ONE WORD THE WHOLE TIME. it was so awkward I couldn’t wait till the cut was over I have never felt so weird and out of place and unwanted… And she still charged me the full price even though she only did HALF the process a woman’s haircut and style is 65 I should have been charged half of that since I didn’t get the style … So I definitely didn’t give her a tip first and LAST time I will ever go to that salon.

You don’t get what you ask for. Never coming back. Waste of money and time. Although they had some good customer service, I guess.
I was pretty unpleased when my hair turned out to be a copper-​orangery color…
–_​_​_​_​– (annoyed face) Luckily, they were nice enough to re-​do it for free.

Mario Tricoci is the best place to get a gift card for that someone special. You can’t go wrong with their products and services

I’ve been coming there for many years & you always come out looking great! If you want everyone to compliment you on your haircut — this is the place to go! Also get ‘hi & lo’ lights when I am there. Always friendly & on time when you are in a hurry.

I don’t live in the area any more but I do like to pop into Mario for a haircut when I am in town. You always get a great cut. They have the stylists complete so much extra training even a new stylist is very good. I had never been to Rasa before, I usually just pop around whenever there is an opening at the Mario I am nearest when I get the haircut urge… I will go back to her though. She has been a stylist for a bit, and you can tell. She is very good. I got a great haircut from her. She is a perfectionist and kept checking things after she made cuts. Very methodical. Oh I loved it! She likes what she does and takes pride in her work, my hair looks awesome! When she was going through finishing she really tailored the cut for the hair contours. Rasa is a steal for 55.00!

Dina has been cutting my hair for around 5 years… she is LEGIT. No one cuts my hair better than her. I have medium length hair, with some layers… she is awesome. Would recommend anytime!

Recently went here for a cut and bang trim and Brittany (thanks for giving me your card, you c**t) did a worse job than my blind grandmother would have.
She did not listen to my directions, probably didn’t even look at my f*ucking hair before taking scissors to it, and cut an uneven, straight bang… Was it dark? No. Was she drunk? Maybe. The only way I can explain the mess she created on my head.
Not only was the hair cut poorly done but the women there were very unprofessional and unfriendly.
Although I’d been a fairly satisfied customer in the past at this location, I will never be going back to this salon, ever. This experience was beyond horrifying, didn’t even know this sh*t could happen. SuperCuts would’ve done a better job, and been nicer too.
Absolutely horrible. Horrible. Horrible.

Started out my hair cuts at Mario Tricoci in stratford square and then followed my stylist to woodfield location after which she went to the location inside woodfield. After she left, I found Veota after she cut my friends hair and I’ve never found the need to find another stylist!
I’ve moved out of the state (and back) & now reside in the city & have given may others the opportunity to do my hair but none are worthy of Veota’s services! I’m so glad she’s here still and I don’t have to look for a stylist any time soon!
Oh and also they have the best blow-​outs for parties, events, etc and without a lot of gunky products in my hair! You would think that’s common sense but I’ve even missed just the wash and blow-​dry.
You never know what you have until it’s gone!

I don’t have the best luck with hair (check out my other reviews) but I think I finally found my salon.
I have been to this Tricoci location twice before, and I was happy with both of my sessions. I first did highlights with Irene, and then also did a blow out with one of the stylists but can’t remember her name. Both were great, and they did my hair without any mistakes! My hair is harder to manage, so I was happy they knew what to do with it.
The most recent visit was for a highlight, cut, and style. It was pricey, but worth it and well needed. Rosario did the highlights, and she did exactly what I asked and quite quickly considering my hair thickness. Francesca did my cut and style and she was amazing, cutting my hair to the style I wanted— something that isn’t so easy if you don’t know how to cut curly hair!
All in all, it was a great experience. They have a good vibe, and everyone is super sweet and fun to talk to. I now can’t wait for my next haircut and color, thanks to Rosario and Francesca!

The girl that does my hair there is very good– salon could use some freshening up

I went here to get my hair styled for our engagement pics. I have never been to this one but i have been to the one outside the mall and i must say the staff at this one is much more friendly! In fact my fiancé has been going here for ten years and to the same stylist so i figured id give it a shot. My stylist (francesca) was very sweet and personable and i could have stayed longer (if i wasnt in a hurry) just to chat! It is a little small in there but space is used pretty well. Oh and of course with marios tge price is always high (i paid $ 70 when i usually pay about $ 50 for special occasion elsewhere) but my hair turned out gorgeous and thats all i can ask for :) ps. thankfully i told my stylist that i was going to mac in nordstrom next for makeup-​waaaaaayyyy different expience! See review*and she walked over the products i bought and left at counter over while i was getting makeup done and checked on my hair! so other than price perfect experience

I have been going to Irene for color and Natalie for cuts for several years. If you can afford it, it’s top notch service. I live in the city and I still drive back to suburbia for their services. I have been stopped in stores and random places MULTIPLE times, just to be complimented on my color by strangers (so much, that I started keeping their business cards handy!!). Irene really knows what she is doing, and after several trips, I now just let her do what she thinks is best. I normally go for the California blonde, highlighted look, but she changes me up from season to season, just for a little variety. I trust her completely. People think I’m a natural blonde… I mean, people actually don’t believe it when I tell them I’m a brunette. They will fight with me!!! Lol. That’s how you KNOW it looks good and natural. And I’m talking highlights, not an all-​over dye. I alternate between partial and full highlights, just to keep my hair from drying out. I have very fine hair. They have great products too– I always use the Rene Fructerer mousse and detangler, as well as their purology shampoos. You really notice the difference if you use the cheap stuff– the color fades faster.
I guess the one negative is that I always try to be the first appointment of the day or else you will be waiting… Irene always seems to run over the allotted time. But she’s very personable and chats with me the whole appt, while providing AMAZING color results. I will wait for that. Just give yourself plenty of time for the appointment. I have been known to be there for 3 hours for a color and cut.

I wish I had an awesome experience as the rest of my fellow Unilocalers. I went to Mario’s to dye my hair. I walked in with brown hair and blonde chunky highlights, I explained to my hairstylist, I wanted to cover my highlights and just have nice evenly brown hair. She decided that I needed to bleach my entire head (called malibu) then put brown color to make it even. I trusted her as she was the hair person not me. After a few hrs of intense processing, stripping my healthy hair and putting dye in it I ended up with BRIGHT RED EFFIN HAIR. I thought I was gonna kill the b*&^h. She just said Oh, it’s complicated. We need to make another appointment. I was so furious… I think I started screaming hahahaha. The manager was even scared with the results of my hair. She fixed it for me and I never paid… and NEVER will I come back!!! I will be nice enough NOT to put my colorists name. Now on I just dye my own hair.

Since my own experience @ Mario T. Too was so positive, I recommended my mom get her haircut there.
My mom is a former beautician trained in the early ‘80s in the days where everything was symmetrically cut with ultimate precision. Not a bad thing, but she knows how she wants her thick, curly hair cut and hasn’t found someone who can truly meet her standards.
I called and made my mom’s appointment and was told she’d be with Maria, so to Maria we went. I went with her, and we checked in with the front desk and waited around for over 10 minutes after my mom’s appointment time. Either Maria forgot she had a 1:00 appointment, she lost track of time, or she wasn’t given her appointment schedule. When she finally realized she had a client, Maria said that they must have changed the schedules (not true — like I said, when I booked the appointment, I was told it was with Maria from the get-​go).
Nevertheless, Maria did a FANTASTIC job on my Mom’s hair. At first even though I thought my mom was being very clear and explicit about what she wanted in her cut, Maria didn’t seem to understand, but at least she did ask several times for clarification. Towards the end, Maria had another client lined up, so she was rushing to blow out my mom’s thick curly hair so she could check how even it was. The blow out took a LONG time, but it ended up looking beautiful. My mom also said how impressed she was that she wasn’t charged extra for the blow-​dry.
In the future I know my mom would see Maria again, and I would recommend Maria to others.

I will die with out you Mrs. Amanda you have been doing my hair for a whole 10 yrs now and I always get compliments on my color. I have gone through a couple stylist since Mrs. sylvia has left but I always feel and look great when I walk out of this place. If any one is reading this review to consider going for a first timer I highly recommend AMANDA for your color. As for cuts I am kinda torn between Casey and Jayma right now.

The best shampoo girl ever Wendy $ 10 (tip)
The best hair cut ever by Stephan $ 60 (w/​tip)
Looking like a million bucks when accidentally bumped in to ex (with his new beer belly and who dressed you this morning clothes) and seeing the look on his face…
PRICELESS !!!
Sorry had to do that ;-)
Thank you Mario Tricoci too and Stephan for always making me look sooo good.
I have always had a great experience here. In addition to the great service and friendly atmosphere, it is a fun place, love to energy of the people who work here.
See you in two months Stephan !

I grew up in Bloomingdale so I had always gone to the MT in that location… this review is based off of only one experience at this location, still a good one. I cheated on my stylist and tried a different (cheaper) place for a cut and style right before a formal dinner party. I, of course, looked hideous. Figures. So as I’m panicking about my asian afro mullet, I tried sneaking into MT Too to get it fixed. George was amazing, he fit me in between all these high school prom appointments and fixed my hair with little notice. MT Too is definitely the scaled back MT and much smaller, but this single experience was great and I really appreciated how accommodating they were on short notice.
