Lauren did such a great job with my hair! I was looking for some fun color and she totally delivered. She had me so excited I was giggling in the chair, and she gave me great coaching for making the color last. I’m in love with my new color! It’s exactly what I wanted!

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.

Heather always listens closely and helps me make decisions about my hair. I had always worn a buzz cut, but when I started to go gray, I decided to grow my hair out. I had ZERO knowledge on styling or products or care. I really feel like a new woman with the hair care I receive from Heather.

I have been a client at Poppy for over 10 years. I’ve always been quite particular (I would also use words like picky, fussy, opinionated) about my hair, and since moving to central MN in 2011, found it really difficult to find a stylist I could fully trust—until I started visiting Poppy salon. My go-to stylist is…
