I love my new cut! My stylist Tommie gave me great feedback and listened to the ideas I had for my cut. I’m really happy with my new hairstyle. I wish I’d come in sooner.
Tommie is one of the best in city if not the best
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.
Always a lovely greeting and such a sweet staff. Everyone comes out looking and feeling like a million bucks!
Everyone is so friendly and personable. I personally have had my haircut by Tommie and recently Alicia. Both do amazing jobs! My 13 year old recently had his hair cut by Kit. He liked the cut and Kit's personality. He very much enjoyed his first salon/ spa experience with Focus!
Focus salon is awesome! Best cut and color ever!
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 !
First time going there and had my hair cut and styled by Kit. She was super friendly and did a great job.
Kim is the absolute best as well as the whole staff at Focus salon. Everyone is welcoming and very fun. I look forward to my appointments!
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!
Kit is an amazing hairdresser. She has serious skills at understanding what I am looking for and meeting me there. I always feel taken care of by her. All that on top of being an extraordinary soul and an amazing listener.
I enjoyed the people, the atmosphere and the vibe at Focus and on top of all that, got a good haircut from Tommy.
My stylist was so nice and super helpful. It was my first time booking at a queer friendly place and I was hesitant till I walked in. Everybody was super friendly and nice. My preferred pronouns were used and I had a great time overall. Definitely recommend especially if you are queer :)
I had a great experience at Focus - Bri did a wonderful job with my haircut!
Topher is always wonderful. He makes me feel pampered. We tried a new color today, and my hair is so vibrant!
Very queer-friendly, I was able to openly talk about transition and how styling my hair plays into that. My stylist Kit talked me through everything she was doing and why, and how I could maintain hair at home. 10/10
Kit was so wonderful and gave me the exact hairstyle I want. Can’t wait to be back!
Kelli is THE BEST!!! 10 stars ✨ across the board both times she has slayed my hair! Thank you, Kellz! 🤏🏽🫶🏽🩵😮💨
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.
Moved to Louisville, a year ago and found Focus Salon after trying 2 other places. My previous Hairapist treated me for 14 years! I found my place, ask for Topher!
Thank you Kim Austin for a beautiful haircut!
Best experience ever! Kit was so amazing, friendly, and talented. My hair is like a dream come true! The whole staff + environment was kind and welcoming. Hadn't been to a professional salon but this has me hooked! Will be returning & telling everyone to come here. Seriously soooo good. Update: Went in for the…
Kit is amazing! I have a hard time explaining what I want and she nails it everytime. Just got my hair cut and i’ve been sitting in the floor playing with it for almost an hour. 500/10 highly recommend. She also took the time to explain how to do my hair which I so appreciate because i’m inept.
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!
Kit was so friendly, she listened to what I wanted and asked questions to clarify, she did great!
Kit was thoughtful, kind, and fun to talk to. She made sure she cut and styled my hair the way I wanted it.
Kim is such a great friend to me. I get haircare with a touch of psychotherapy.... (picture below me on the right).
Stylists are fun and relatable. And, of course, they do good work!!🌟🙌 I get to laugh, nothin’ better y estoy estilizado!
Topher never misses. He’s magical 💈
Alicia is awesome!!! I love my hair, I get lots of compliments.
Very friendly and welcoming atmosphere! Couldn’t ask for better customer service and the stylists and front desk staff are top tier!
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…
Kelli does a fantastic job. It’s always exactly what I wanted, and exceeds expectations. The entire staff are amazing.
Caring, skilled, and professional - I definitely recommend.
Everyone at Focus Salon is wonderful. They are friendly and helpful, and willing to guide you with ideas if you need any suggestions on style or color. They are the only place I go.
Got the best haircut and service by Kit. She is a rockstar… She made me comfortable and understood what I want and did a tremendous job.. Kit is your person if you want a good conversation and best haircut and advices. Definitely going to visit again..
Excellent color service today! Had lots of fun getting my “Anime Hair!”
This girl is the best I’ve ever had! She is on her game
Kind. Easy going atmosphere with top notch stylist
Alicia did a great job once again
I have found my forever salon. This was my first time going to Focus and Haley made it a perfect experience. I will continue to go back again and again! Update: Went to see Haley again and once again she made it so easy and is great at explaining and helping me understand what we need to do to help me grow my hair…
Alicia is 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.
Alicia always takes the best care of me and my hair!!! Love her to death!!! 🫶

Kim is the best!
I was scheduled for a haircut with Kim. Showed them a couple pictures of a Shag/Mullet haircut I liked, but mentioned that I didn’t want bangs because I don’t like how they feel. He offered me a few suggestions and changes that would achieve the look I wanted without the annoyance of having bangs. I felt very happy…
Awesome stylists and nice atmosphere. Great experience every time
Super friendly and awesome vibe. New to the area, made me feel extremely welcome!
Haley is a dream

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🥰
Ethel is great!
Mara was a fantastic stylist, the salon as a whole has a lovely, comfortable vibe.
Ethel is very personable and an excellent stylist. I came a little early and she took me right away. She asks for lots of input to ensure you get the haircut and style you want. I will definitely return to see her
I booked my appointment with less than 24 hours notice and they were able to squeeze me in no problem! Ethel cut my hair and did such a fantastic job! They did a great job at making me feel comfortable and walked me through every step of the process. She even taught me how to style my new haircut! She was very…
It was good. Haley was very relatable, friendly and nice! Looking forward to our next encounter. 👍🏼
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!
Haley was super helpful, friendly and knowledgeable.
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!

Alicia is the best! I keep fairly short hair and she does a great job cutting for a stylish grow out. She’s given me so many fun styles. Great location, highly recommend!
Alicia was so nice and paid close attention to detail on how I wanted my hair cut and styled. I personally like A LOT of layers and she delivered!
Honestly best haircut I have received in years! Myra (sorry if I spelled it wrong) is absolutely amazing at what she does. Not only did it feel amazing but i looked amazing once she was done with me. 10 stars please. Thank you so much M! I plan to come for a hair cut anytime I come into town from GA.
