I honestly don’t know where to start! Sam was amazing! She started with a thorough interview about my hair and past services. Then on to the wash where I had cool pack on my eyes and was offered a blanket, a full scalp massage,… it was at least 20 minutes of full relaxation. Last was the cut. Sam explained…

I had a wonderful time! Lauren was a blast and very welcoming. I was not nervous at all for my first time meeting her. Not only was she kind but she did such a good job at my hair and I feel like a fairy princess!

I went to Poppy Salon recently as the stylist who had been doing my hair for the past 25 years got out of cosmetology. Jordynn did a great job on my hair (which had been previously colored poorly.) I am so thankful to have found my new stylist!

Love the decor, cleanliness and space between stylists. Everyone treats you like a valued client and friend instead of a number. Great music! Also love the eucalyptus and lavender eye masks and hot towel included with your service and the beverages, snacks and blankets. Very professional. Only place I would go to. Very caring and compassionate staff.

I am so excited to find a great hair stylist. May listened to me and gave me the exact style I wanted. When I went to fix it myself it laid perfectly. I’m thrilled and will recommend her to my friends. Thanks May!

Best Salon in Central Minnesota!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I've been going to my stylist for 17 years, she is one of the owners and founders. My years with her should tell you something about the type of service and experience you will receive!!!!
