Jorge should be located under "magicians" because that is what he does. He is so talented and makes me feel beautiful not just the day I walk out of the salon but for months after. Many hairdressers make you look good but then you get home and feel like you are trying to reinvent the wheel. Jorge always gives me a cut that I can do on my own. Love him!! read more

Done and done. I've found my place and hopefully I don't have to find a new stylist for a really long time. (Are you listening, Lolo?? You're not allowed to go anywhere!) I made the leap, finally, after years of "growing out" my hair. I just don't do well with long hair. Yes, it's beautiful and thick and curly, but it sucks to have to fix it every day. Which means that it's either curly and unruly or in a pony tail. That is why I decided to chop it all off. I took in a picture of Elisha Cuthbert's cute, short cut, and Lolo was like "Sit down, let's get to work!" See, I had just gone in to see what she thought about it...but here I was...making the decision whether or not to go through with it. "You seem ready..." Lolo said...she could tell I was having second thoughts...finally I sat down and said, "What the hell!" So she went to cutting. Can I just say that when she turned me around, for the first time in my life...I felt like a cut was meant just for me? I hugged and squeezed her because I was so happy. It was exactly what I wanted...without even really knowing it. See, she didn't just cut it like the picture I'd brought in. She made sure to tell me that she was going to do that "style", but in a way that would flatter my hair type. Boy did she ever! It's adorable. I can leave the house with it wet or blow it dry. I will be a loyal customer for as long as Lolo will have me! read more

This is a gem of a salon in South Austin. The owner Jorge has a way with hair, even a wild mane like mine. (I'm not exaggerating about the mane. I have literally been asked by a previous hairdresser to kindly comb out my own damn hair after the shampoo because it was too thick and unruly.) Jorge managed to embrace my unruly curls so I don't have to spend an hour trying to tame them every day. It's a wonderful feeling to be able to wash your hair and go, knowing that it's not going to dry into something that looks like birds should be nesting in it. I placed my mom (the genetic source of my problem locks) in his capable hands and he was able to part her from the "helmet" hair that so many Texan women in their 50s feel forced into and gave her an amazingly modern cut that was adorable and easy to maintain. Jorge's coworker, Naomi cuts and colors my friend's hair and she always does a fantastic job. You really can't go wrong with either of them. All that talent, good conversation skills (very important) and very reasonable at only $40 for a cut and style!!! P.S. If you want a really unique up do, Jorge is the man! read more

J Buccio Salon - Amazing updo by Jorge! - Hair Salons Near Me - Austin, Texas

I made an appointment with Jorge while in disarray. My former stylist had given me a horrible color job, and it was borderline unprofessional. My roots were a brassy red, the middle section of hair was blonde and my ends had streaks of jet black. Jorge and I spent a long Friday evening cleaning up the mess. He was patient and did a fantastic job of blending. read more

J Buccio Salon - Hair color and style - Hair Salons Near Me - Austin, Texas

Jo Lee DeWolf cuts and colors hair at this salon. I highly recommend her. She has years of experience and does a very professional job. She had excellent cutting and coloring skills. I appreciate the time she takes to "get it right" by taking her time and not rushing through a cut or styling. If you are frustrated with poor cuts and colors, give her a try, you won't be disappointed. read more

After losing my stylist from Jackson Ruiz almost 3 years ago, I have been salon-hopping ever since. Until now. Getting a haircut is always a last-minute deal for me - I usually wake up one day and decide that I need a cut. Now. So last Friday on my day off (because it was my birthday and wanted to spoil myself) I did a little Yelp map search and found this salon just around the corner from my house. I was happy to hear that Jorge, the owner, had an open spot, so I made my appointment and went in late that afternoon. It's a simple little salon, but very airy and clean, and you would never guess it was tucked away into that shopping center unless you were looking for it. When I got there, Jorge was still working on his previous client but offered me a drink while I waited. I used to love Jackson Ruiz and other high-end salons because of the ambiance and the feeling of like going to a spa, but I'm in a different financial situation now and I'll trade that for a good price and great attitude any day (I always felt like the staff at those salons were snobby, and Jorge is anything but!). As we sat down for my consult, I immediately felt like he knew what he was talking about. I had mentioned that I needed my bangs trimmed, but he said that he would do something that would have movement, as if I were standing in front of a fan or something. Cool, I trust ya. So as he cut my hair and chatted, I learned that Jorge is SUPER passionate about fashion and hair. He is constantly learning about new techniques and teaches, too. It was SO refreshing to find a stylist who actually loves his job and isn't burned out by doing the same thing day after day. Even before my hair was dry, I loved the cut! And then he blew it out and it was AWESOME! And since it was my birthday and I was on my way to a makeup appointment and then headed downtown, he styled it out with some amazing curls! He is REALLY good at what he does and the prices are unbeatable! I can't tell you the last time I left a salon LOVING the cut and feeling BEAUTIFUL. From what I've read here he's amazing at color, and we talked about some options for my color (although I'm trying to hold out on hilights this summer) but I just *might* have to stop by before leaving town and see what that talk is all about. I'm even planning to come back to Austin to get my hair cut by Jorge after I move to Ft. Worth! I guess it's worth the wait to find that one great stylist once again :) read more

Noemi has been cutting my hair since I was 15 years old. There are a few people that I trust with my hair and I am lucky to have been able to have access to her when I moved to Austin. I will follow Noemi to any salon that she works at BUT I love J Buccio! Jorge treats me like family everytime I come and even when I don't want a caffe latte he brings me one. J Buccio balances the high fashion professionalism with a down to earth, family feel that will keep me coming back. P.S. I have long, curly hair and as a dude it is EXTREMELY difficult to find someone who can handle this mess. NOEMI what is going to happen when you join the midget circus? read more

I have been looking for a good salon in Austin for some time - I have found it! Jorge has always given me a perfect haircut. He is great with color too. On top of it, he is super friendly and speaks Spanish! I have recommended this salon to all my friends read more

I truly dislike leaving negative reviews, but, this time I feel highly motivated to do so. This was my first appointment with Jorge. The results I got for $80 was pathetic. I will never go back to this salon again. When he told me the charge, I almost fell over. My hair is short and not that difficult to cut. If anything, it's more like a trim. To make matters worse, when I walked in on time for my appointment, I said hello. Jorge took a few minutes to turn around then said, "Oh, I thought you were someone else." I know that he's gotten rave reviews, but to me, this was insulting and not the way to treat a new customer. My feeling was that, for some reason, he preferred not to have me as a future client, hence, the $80 charge. read more

Don't let the strip-mall surroundings fool you. J Buccio is the real deal. I originally found this place through Yelp when I moved here last summer, and Rhonda did my hair and made it as gloriously straight as it's ever been in my life -- which is saying a lot. But by the time I got around to coming back she had moved on, so Jorge, the owner, saw me. He's wonderful -- fun, easy to talk to. And the look of sheer creative genius on his face while he dried my hair at the end said it all: this is a guy who cares about his work. I kind of hate salons in general, but J Buccio isn't so fancy-schmancy that I feel out of place. Plus, I thought the price was reasonable: around $100 for a cut and some basic highlights. read more

LOOOOOOOOOOOOVE! I usually see Jorge, who has been my hair savior for the last year. After my last stylist moved I had been bouncing around for awhile. I realized I had been seeing amateurs the second Jorge touched his skilled and confident fingers to my head. Thank you Jorge for giving me good hair for the first time in a long time. I have gotten more compliments and given out your name more in the last year than ever before in my life. And my eyes roll back in my head when you shampoo my hair. I have also occasionally seen Lolo and Naomi and have been equally enamored with my hair afterward. Particularly, Naomi just gave me bangs for the first time since I was nine. I was so nervous and she was just awesome and I just loooove love love them and have gotten sooo many compliments in the last week and every time I was reminded that I have been wanting to Yelp them. The atmosphere is relaxed and very casual. The salon is in a strip mall so there's always parking, and once you get inside the salon is modern and pretty and stylish. Love it. read more

Miss Lolo is simply the BEST!!! My daughter who is a total brat when it comes to her hair and has had stylist to the celebrities in NYC do her hair through out her life, in Austin she LOVES Lolo! Lolo knows what you want and what's best for you the second she looks at you. When you sit at her chair, you truly experience relaxation because she is not the type of stylist that doesn't shut up trying to convince you that they know what they are doing. You will immediately feel a sense of confidence with Lolo. She wont have to tell you that she graduated from a prestigious beauty school or that she does this or that for you to know that she knows better than anyone else what she is going to with your style. If you really want to relax at the shampoo bowl, you are in for a treat!!! Wherever Lolo goes, my daughter and I, will go! read more

He did it again. I had been living out of state for about a year, and recently moved back. In the meantime, I received 2 haircuts at 2 different salons that were both not great, and too expensive, and left me with a big mess to grow out. SO! I couldn't wait to get an appointment with Jorge. I finally was able to get in to see him, and left with an understated, natural, yet precision hair cut that was EXACTLY what I wanted. He is a HAIR GENIUS. Please don't make an appointment with him though. I want him all to myself, thanks. read more

Noemi has been cutting my hair for several years. I'm not very 'girly' and don't like to spend a lot of time or effort on my looks - but with a great haircut and recommendations for some very good product - I'm able to look great without expending a ton of effort. I have been very pleased with her consistently high quality of service she has been able to offer me over the years, as well as the very reasonable prices and extremely comfortable low key but good vibe atmosphere at J Buccio. Keep up the great work, and I'll keep telling my friends about your great place! read more

This salon is great prices are very reasonable. I get my hair cut by Lolo, whom has always been able to keep up with my constant indecisiveness. One week I want to have a mohawk, the next week highlights, then platinum blond hair, and then shave it all off and start over. No matter what I want to do to my hair Lolo has always kept up. He has done my friends hair, my mom's hair, my sister's hair and no one has had a complaint yet. He does everything from relaxers (I need one when I grow out my hair, and it looks amazing!) to extensions. Not that I've ever gotten extensions but he has put them in his own hair and they look sooooo natural. Wow, when you put extensions in your own head now that's talent. No matter what stylist you choose at this salon you really can not go wrong. The 3 stylists here do an amazing job. read more

Jorge is a hair God. My hair always look fabulous and the color is so natural. I sent my bff and now she is a Jorge junky too. We love and adore him. He makes me feel beautiful and is always a delightful visit. I'm a big believer in supporting small business and love sharing the treasures I find. read more

Jorge is a star in Hair. He does fashion weeks all over the world and even does celebrity hair. I feel like I get start treatment when he does my hair. Hes amazing. I would highly recommend him to anyone. read more

I just got a FANTASTIC hair cut from Jorge Buccio. I have been hopping from one stylist to another since I move to Austin over three years ago. Up until today each haircut has been a gamble I have tragically lost. He sculpted my atrocious hair that could accurately be described as a cross between Friar Tuck and K.D. Lang into a style that Rhianna would be proud to don. I feel pretty. And pretty smart for paying a really good price! read more

Lolo at J. Buccio Salon gives amazing haircuts! I came in and said, chop it off. She looked at me and said, "I have some ideas. Let's go!" What turned out was a style which suits me perfectly. She's fantastic! read more

Jorge is as good as it gets. I won't EVER go to anyone else. He is a true artist and the "Hair Whisperer" Fo realz.

I have thick African American hair and Lolo always works wonders on it with the keratin treatment! These people are professional, friendly and thorough. read more

Good luck getting them to answer their phone, much less return a voicemail.

Jorge is amazing! Very confident in what he does, and it shows with this outcome of his work. Very comfortable atmosphere, very welcoming, and especially assures you that what you want is what you will get..and more! Jorge explains everything he is doing, and makes sure you are happy at all times. This man deserves all the respect because he fixed a horrible haircut from another salon, and made sure that everything was even and styled to perfection. You HAVE to go to this salon, because there is absolutely nothing like it! read more

I have never reviewed a hair dresser before but I am sooo happy with my haircut. Jorge is fantastic, he looked at my hair, the shape of my face and did some magic. This was very nerve racking since I just moved to S.Austin. Jorge made me feel at ease as he is very personable. I am definitely going to tell my 3 daughters to make an appointment. Thanks to you yelpers I would never have found this Salon. read more

I too came arrived at J. Buccio Salon, following my stylist who left Ulta. After watching Jorge, last Fall, I made an appt. and let me tell you...Jorge gave me my groove back.. Dishwater blonde to Bombshell - yet sleek and subtle. This is a Very Savvy Salon with a personalities to match. Jorge is very genuine..... he knows and cares about his clients. He is a master instructor with Schwarzkopf Color and his natural,scissor wizardry speaks for itself! WOW! LoLo is also an excellent stylist. If you arrive in a good mood you will leave feeling wonderful! They have a great team and I highly recommend. read more

The salon is in a strip mall on the corner of William Cannon and West Gate. It has retail onsite so that you can usually purchase the products your stylist recommends. The interior is clean and modern and the stylist are welcoming. My stylist Noemi is a color expert that leaves my hair beautifully styled everytime! read more

I've been seeing Afee since he owned his own place. He has always listened to me and has done what I wanted, as long as he knew it was going to look right. He will guide you in the right direction when you want something that your hair just won't do. And when I decided that I wanted to go short, he wasn't afraid to do it! Other stylists have always been afraid to cut my hair off, but Afee wasn't! I love it! I wouldn't see anyone else! read more

Noemi is great. She new exactly what I wanted and what I didn't want. She styled my hair and was very knowledgeable about my hair type, curls. She also advised me on some great styles. She is also very friendly and the salon makes you feel welcome. read more

I've been to a lot of duds but Jorge is so great at dealing with my thick hair. Everyone in this shop is so nice and easy to chat with, especially Jorge. And the price is right, too! read more

Well, on the heels of such great press I decided to stop by and see if J Buccio Salon could cut my hair given that N'Style salon across the parking lot got rid of everybody I'd let do so. In one of the silliest scenes I think I've ever been in life, I pull up in the middle of the day, walk up and the place is a bit dark but for the neon signs inside which gave it a look as though it was just _almost_ open for business. There was a girl and a guy who seemingly obviously work there sitting on the couch inside. No customers, not even any cars parked outside anywhere close. I go up and the girl unlocks the door and peers out at me, I ask if they only have appointments by reservation, & the girl says "Yeah, typically" and closes & locks the door. No "try later", no "call us for an appointment", no "sorry but we're closed today", no nothing... The attitude was such that she may as well have just said "yeah, f**k off".. So I did, and I believe I also left some rubber for them to remember me by, but seriously the curt attitude just really irked me. I don't see how anyplace can stay in business for long with overhead and no customers, but you can bet your last dollar I'm not going to be calling them back and begging for them to cut my hair. Now I'm _really_ wondering if all those all-too-glowing reviews were written by owner/employees. Just seems too good to be true, and I think most of us know what that means... And *no* kudos goes to Yelp for filtering out the newer, bad reviews at first glance, that's for sure. Certainly wasted my time. read more

Jorge kept me waiting 2 weeks for an appt. then when I went in he was with another client.....I figured , no problem I can wait a few.....then after 30 minutes sitting there....no one offered me a glass of water.....or an explanation about why Jorge was taking so long to finish the hair before me........I waited for a total of 40 minutes.....and Jorge was still working on the hair before me. I left. I then made another appt. and waited two weeks for that appt.....only to be asked to wait 30 min. before Jorge could start on my hair that day. WHAT'S WITH ALL THE LATENESS AND THE WAITING JORGE!! NO BODY IS WORTH WASTING OVER AN HOUR'S WAITING PAST MY APPT. TIME!! GET YOURSELF ON A SCHEDULE AND SERVE YOUR CLIENTS. read more

Jorge is an artist! He loves hair, whether it is short or long. People always leave happy. I know I am, I have recommended him to everyone I know. read more

Noemi's been doing my hair for about a year and a half. I first found her on the recommendation of my sister when she was at another salon. I came to her after another less qualified stylist had permed and colored my hair into a crunchy crispy mess. What made me trust her with my disaster of a head was that on my first visit she told me she wouldn't color or put any type of chemicals on my hair until we were able to rehab it. She could have easily done the highlights and made some money but she didn't. It's been a long year and a half and she had to cut off most of my hair, but she made it look so cute and it's finally looking healthy again. I have NEVER gotten so many compliments on my hair before. I love that she's at J Buccio's now. I have a blast every time I'm there laughing with all the stylists. I recommend her to all my friends b/c she saved my hair and I can finally say that I love my hairstyle. read more

Go! Since moving to Austin, I'd been to a couple of other salons that people rave about. But once I looked in the mirror after Jorge had worked his magic, I knew that I'd found my new hair guy. He's brilliant. I keep my hair pixie-short, and it's hard to find a stylist who TRULY knows what s/he is doing. Jorge knows. And beyond being technically skilled, he is the kind of stylist who listens to what his client wants and understands it. And then is willing to give you something daring, even if it's your first time in his chair. It seems that everyone else is afraid you'll go running. But Jorge believed me when I said I was sick of hearing that I looked conservative and that I feel best, prettiest, and most truly ME when my tresses are short-short! He gave me the most perfectly sassy little pixie, and a really fun red color that made me wonder why I've spent most of my life with dishwater blonde. It's like he saw who I was and revealed me. Jorge rules and I'm tickled pink it's almost time to see him again!! read more

Put off cutting my hair too long because I hated the thought of finding a new stylist who KNEW what they were doing!! Too many times trying to find the right stylist who would listen to my wishes but advise as well. Went on 'yelp' and saw reviews for J Buccio and made the appointment/commitment!! Loved the close location and was impressed with the small and BEAUTIFUL simplistic design of the salon! Jorge, the owner, was wonderful -- fun, easy to talk to, VERY creative and dedicated to his profession! Highly recommend - so happy I found him!! read more

Jorge did a wonderful job on my cut and color. Just 3 days before I went to J Buccio, I had a cut and color in San Antonio and it was awful. He was able to fix the color and the cut and did an amazing job. He also does my daughter and she always has a great cut and even when she just wakes up! He is the first one that has gotten my highlights just perfect...natural yet super! Highly recommend! read more

Wow! That's all I can say. Jorge did an outstanding job on my hair. He listened to what I wanted and I came out with a beautiful cut and color. read more

It's taken me a couple of weeks to write this, because I am so disappointed! I now have a cut that only a hairdresser can do anything with, and once I even try to style it, it looks like....I NEED A HAIRCUT. I have very fine hair, and asked Jorge for a professional style and 1. not to cut it too short; 2. not to layer it any more than it was already layered,and 3. I have an under layer of hair that is ugly wavy and didn't want to fight with that, so don't cut layers to show. HE DID ALL THREE. I now have extra and shorter layers, even on the sides where my hair is thinner. Now I have to wait for it to grow out. Maybe I caught him on a bad day. read more
