Great experience! Kim, the stylist, recommended by a friend who has been a client of his for 30 years. Took the time to find the right color for a root touchup and taught me how to blow dry my hair for styling following the shampoo and hair cut.
Salon is a beautiful, fun, queer friendly place! Topher took a mess of hair and made it look fresh again! I appreciated the way he spent time explaining the dos and don’ts. Fabulous experience. Can’t wait for my next appointment!
Tommy is absolutely wonderful. He is so talented!!
Focus salon is awesome! Best cut and color ever!
My hair is INSANE (in the best possible way), cut and color with Topher and I always love my look but the bright vibrant dimensional red he achieved this time is next level gorgeous! Always focused on keeping my hair healthy and strong but still getting incredible results, so happy! (Picture is after 1 week, just…
Topher as always is the absolute best- he is a hair coloring and hair styling genius!!! All the staff are friendly and helpful. Highly, highly recommend !
A great place for eyebrow shaping and hair color. They were great at helping me choose the color I want for my hair.
Awesome environment, friendly, and welcoming. Hair services were fantastic and exactly what I wanted. Just got a lash lift and tint and I cannot believe these are MY lashes. Highly recommend!
The first time we went the hair didn’t turn out the way we asked (for my daughter) then we were told that they went off a picture my child showed them. Blonde was missing so we went back to add more blonde to her hair and now the left side of her head is missing a patch of blonde but the right side turned out great.…
Topher is always wonderful. He makes me feel pampered. We tried a new color today, and my hair is so vibrant!
Tommie did a beautiful job with my cut and color today, per usual. He also cut my tween’s hair, respecting her wishes and encouraging her. And he’s fun to talk to while I’m in the chair!
First time here and it was a great experience. Kelli was fantastic. My cut and color was great.
Had a super fun time with Alicia as always she did amazing with my hair! Always book my appointments with her and she never let me down. I do a balayage with different colors this time I chose a chocolate latte with Carmel highlights an I've never loved my hair more then I do rn!! Thank you Alicia
Focus salon is a fun a welcoming salon. I've been with the same hair stylist for over 30 years. Kim is the best. However he has a very good crew! They listen and give you what you want.
Wonderful service and work by Bri, whole staff was friendly and welcoming. cant recommend enough!
Kit made my Cherry Cola colored Lana Del Rey hair a reality . She is so skilled and also just an incredibly sweet human too! Highly recommend
I had a facial and hair appt in the past few days and it was great! Abbey the aesthetician is funny, helpful, and you need to schedule with her for a facial- so relaxing! My skin was glowing! I absolutely love everyone at Focus Salon! Wonderful, caring team who love what they do!
I am so very happy! Tommie did an amazing job on my hair and always takes extra care with everything he does! 😀 Highly Recommend Tommie
Topher never misses. He’s magical 💈
Alicia is awesome!!! I love my hair, I get lots of compliments.
Update: I went back for my coloring and Kit once again did amazing! I went full blonde and she did everything she could to make sure my hair would turn out exactly the way I wanted it. It is always a good sign when the stylist checks in often, gets second opinions to make sure timing is perfect, and then praise me…
Caring, skilled, and professional - I definitely recommend.
Today was my 3rd or 4th visit (list count) at Focus Salon. Mara listens and answer any concerns or questions regarding my hair or/products. Mara is a very pleasant and diligent hard working hair stylist!! The atmosphere is laid back and embraces a unique personal touch not always found in hair salons. The…
This salon is like family! Family that doesn't trim your bangs to short or give you a poodle perm. All of the Staff are knowledgeable and are on trend with suggestions to work with your hair type and what to expect with requested cut/color.
Haley is an amazing hair stylist! She's knowledgeable, friendly, and does a great job on my hair. She always takes the time to explain things and ensures I'm happy with the way my hair looks. I can say she's the best stylist I've had.
Excellent color service today! Had lots of fun getting my “Anime Hair!”
My second time, and I think I’ve found my forever salon! The staff is wonderful and I walk away with exactly what I wanted each time. Highly recommended, grab a spot with Alicia if you can she’s the best!
Kim is AMAZING!!!! He put so much time into helping me decide on cut, color, and style. He gave me some great tips on styling and maintaining my new look. I walked out of there with a big smile feeling like a million bucks. Kim thank you so much for the great conversation and making me feel pretty again.
Kelli cut and colored my hair and I couldn’t be happier! She knew exactly what I wanted but exceeded my expectations. Everything was perfect.
I got my hair done by Alicia today and it turned out so beautiful! We did fashion colors and a cut. She is a joy to have do my hair, and everyone in the salon is so kind! 10/10 check their Facebook for my results!
I'm never disappointed when Topher cuts and styles my hair! I've put my trust in him for years!😊
Topher created exactly what I wanted! He is a genius! We are progressing towards hair nirvana!!!

Oct. 2023 I couldn't be happier with my hair! Alycia knows her color! She had to correct a mess I had going on with my hair, plus she blended my natural 2 inches of natural gray so well with high and low lights at a very fair price. I will definitely be back. Dec.2023 Ethel did my color today and I am so happy. I…
Kim does a fantastic job every time!! I love Focus Salon!!
Haley did a PHENOMENAL job on my hair. I've had bad experiences with getting my hair botched before but she was very up front and honest every step of the way & I had no problem putting my full trust in her. Keep doing your thing girl you have a talent🥰
I just had cut and color done with Haley and as a fellow employee of hers, I could not say more wonderful things about her service and skill levels!
Mara, is a wonderful hair stylist. I am extremely satisfied with her above and beyond customer service and hair skills. So happy to have found her and this salon. I have to say everyone that works there is super friendly! Yay!
Haley is amazing. She is fresh with ideas, very smart and makes me feel young again, lol. This is my second time seeing her and another employee also helped, they had a long ponytail (sorry, I can’t remember the name). But they were amazing. They made me feel like they really cared and were giving me the best service. Thank you!
The best stylists I've ever met...Topher is a genius. Love this salon with all of my heart ❤️❤️❤️❤️.
Great experience as always! Kim is great!!!
Mara made my hair dreams come true ❤️🖤
Topher and all the staff at Focus Salon are FANTASTIC! Deep intricate knowledge and experience in all they do. Spectacular environment as well.
Absolutely amazing. Simply.
I had a great experience the conversation was good it wasn’t awkward at all I showed my hair dresser a picture of what I wanted an my hair turned out just like it! I am so happy with the service I received the products are amazing an the shop was cute and clean! Very friendly environment I have already booked my next appointment!
Wonderful hair cut and coloring, Kim does such a good job. Again wonderful hair cut and coloring again this visit. Hair cut and coloring, both turned out wonderful😊

Mara always does a wonderful job. She’s always friendly and kind and helpful. I have gotten so many compliments on my hair color.
Focus has the best family and safe vibes of any salon that I’ve been too, and Ethel is both incredibly talented and beautifully kind. I’m lucky to have found them!!
Great hair cut! With Topher.
Love, love, love Focus Salon!!! My hairstylist, Alicia is the BEST! She always does an amazing job on my hair. 💞
Really great space, the customers were nice and the service is perfect.
Topher did a great job on my hair. Would recommend 100%
As always, the best
Mara is professional, talented, and delightful. She did exactly what I asked and I was extremely pleased with the results. I will absolutely return.
First time getting a Facial with Torrilla! (Sorry for spelling your name incorrectly). So much more than I expected. She is so good and took her time to explain things to me and removed things the dermatologist never helped with. She also recommended a skin care plan. Love her! Love this place! Ethel does a great…
Update: I made an appointment for my mom who has some mobility impairments and Topher worked with her to find a shape and style that she makes her feel glamorous. He provided styling tips that she can handle on a daily basis without pain. Topher is phenomenal from cut to color he is the best in the city! He…
Love this place. Everyone is fantastic 🥰 Topher does my hair and is so wonderful. With Trim , Color & Style. I also have waxing, Eyebrows & Lashes tented. Topher is so helpful & knowledgeable about so many things from hair to face & skin with so much more. Mara does my little girls hair and she is so sweet &…
Great service and laid back, relaxing salon.
Mara is the best!!!
Can't sing enough praises! Everyone is so nice and talented! Topher is a genius and knows exactly how to make me look good every single time. I change my mind a lot and he just rolls with if and gives me the most gorgeous version of whatever I'm feeling.
Ethel was super nice, did a fantastic job cutting my hair, and was reasonably priced!
Always a pleasure to visit, Ethel was awesome as always. The staff goes out of the way to make you are comfortable and you get the service you desire.
I really love Focus Salon.
My hair is not the color I asked for. I’m a blonde and my hair actually looks brown even gray.
I've been having my hair cut and styled by Topher for over a year now (as well as my brows waxed), and he's amazing. He is literally the best human, too. He fixed my cut the first time I saw him, and I have a regular monthly appointment with him now. I love my hair. I get a ton of compliments on both the color and…
I'm very happy with the professionalism and quality of my service. I would recommend this place to anyone. Alicia was amazing!
Best salon in louisville all stylist are great you can't go wrong.
Mara did my hair and did amazing! Great professionalism and everyone was super friendly! Love her and my hair!
Mara is the best! My old hairdresser moved to Mt. Washington and I managed to meet Mara at my own place of work and immediately booked with her. She is extremely kind and personable. I had problems in the past with other hairdressers not truly listening to what I wanted, even when what I was asking for was…
Kim and his team are hands down the very best in cut, style and color in this region! (Best prices too!)
Excellent work, couldn’t be happier with my new hair!
Kim is amazing!!!
From the friendly greeting when I arrived to the color consultation, and the spa room I was royally treated. Everyone listened to what I wanted and expanded my ideas into a complete look. I am already looking forward to returning.
Topher was amazing with my 4yr old who has hip length hair. He talked her through everything so she wouldn't be scared and made her feel so fancy!
I am absolutely in love with my hair!!! Mara did such a good job & she is so sweet :) I had a great time and my hair looks amazing!!! She is very good at what she does and she was just excited as I was to pull it off. I showed them a picture & she pulled it off perfectly! Def book with her! Everyone at this salon…
All the staff here were wonderful! Kim is magical with his satchel of shears and such!!
Great price, even coverage with my color, love it!!
First trip here and it was amazing! Mara is so detail-oriented and did an amazing job on my color. I have super thick hair and usually stylists get annoyed with how many foils they have to put in my hair 😂. I wanted a really natural-looking blonde highlights and she did just that. It looks like I’ve been out in the…
Topher is an artist, his pleasant demeanor and ability to turn my hair into art is impeccable. I am so glad I chose Focus.
I love the color, but it was far more expensive than anticipated. Up charges were not explained or requested, just added and broke my budget.
This was my first visit with Kim. What I enjoyed most was that Kim is a teacher as well as a stylist. "There is not good and bad only cause and effect," he said. He taught me a new way to blow dry my hair. And I've received many compliments. So glad I made this change!
Alicia is amazing! I always leave loving my hair! Wether it’s a trim or dying my hair a fun color, she is always on point and her input is always very thoughtful.
I love this. Every time my hair looks amazing when I leave. They listen and accommodate! Update: Today I got a facial, and it was the best facial I have ever received. It was like a mini vacation! Strongly recommend! Update 10/14/21: I got my hair highlighted Tuesday and a facial today. I leave feeling so good…
Kim, the owner of Focus salon is an artist with hair. He's extremely knowledgeable about color, cut and styling, and loves to educate his clients. I highly recommend him. Prior to finding him, I was so unhappy with my hair, I would usually wear a headband or scarf covering my hair and only occasionally styled it. I…
John is amazing as a stylist!!! I’ve gone to him for years and years. The state of the salon however has drastically gone down hill. It used to be so cute, decorated for holidays, and it’s been in a state of disrepair for some time now. For the prices charged it isn’t a good look.
Love Alicia!! She works magic on ny hair every time.
Alicia always makes my hair dreams come true!! ✨
Love it here! Won’t go anywhere else. John is the best!
Alicia always does an amazing job with my hair! Both for haircuts and for color (natural and fashion colors like purple and orange and silver).♡ Can't recommend her enough
Alicia is awesome! I feel like a Queen! Thank you so much! Will be back and will recommend!
Very kind, knowledgeable and lovely staff. My daughter left her appointment today feeling beautiful and confident and that means the world. We will definitely come back and highly recommend. Thank you for everything!!
Go to Alicia, she was awesome!
Perfect every time, love John
I love this salon. Topher is my stylist, he is amazing. When I found Topher I had just received the worst cut in my life. Topher corrected the cut and my hair looks awesome. He also made color adjustments and I have received a lot of compliments. So glad I found him!
I see John Strizak and he is excellent. I have been seeing him for about 20 years and he never disappoints.
I love this place and the staff. Best salon I have ever been to. Alicia is the best always makes my hair look great!!
Topher is AMAZING !!! He does my hair regularly. He really listens and pays attention to what the client is wanting. I have fine hair and he always knows how to cut it to make it look fuller. Plus he’s great with color, he can be as creative as you like. He does my hair for Derby every year. He also made me look…
