Absolutely killer. It’s a safe space and my haircut is so good it’s changed how a view myself. Literally cannot say enough good things. Kayleigh is a freaking wizard.


Feb 01, 2025

Julianna was wonderful! I can tell she takes great pride in her work. I am usually very uncomfortable in salon settings but just her general demeanor was so lovely and really put me at ease. I am absolutely thrilled with my first cut in 8 or so years and just the overall experience I had. As for the service, Julianna cut and styled my hair to bring out the natural curls/waves the best I've seen in 10 years! I love everything about my new cut, seeing the texture come back in one session just sent me over the moon! The vibe at Poppy&Rod is exactly what I didn't know I was looking for. It felt very safe and comfortable. Ownership and staff clearly cultivate a great environment and I love it!

I've finally found MY stylist 😍 Julianna (Jules) is the best!


Jan 06, 2025

Had an amazing blowout with Julianna at Poppy&Rod! She saved the day and managed my long hair easily, which is a rare experience! The salon is super cute, clean, and welcoming. Highly recommend for anyone looking to treat their hair to something special!


Dec 06, 2024

I can’t recommend Julianna enough! I moved from out of state and was so scared to trust anyone with my hair after going to the same hairdresser my whole life. Jules completely blew me away, my hair has never looked better. She is crazy good with color and i would trust her with ANY look


Dec 06, 2024

I can’t recommend Julianna enough! She is so professional, talented and kind. She listens and does the best job on my hair, I don’t trust anyone else! I always leave feeling like a million dollars and get so many compliments on my hair. She’s the best!


Dec 06, 2024

I got my first heavily textured look here with Juliana and I LOVED it. The hair, the atmosphere, the chats, the whole vibe was on point.


Dec 06, 2024

Jules is the best hair stylist in town!!!! Ive been going to her for the last 3 years and I wouldn’t have it any other way, if you’re looking for a cut and color that’s going to make you feel beautiful and confident in your own skin, she’s the person to see!


Dec 06, 2024

Love getting my haircut by Jules! The whole environment is cute and welcoming.


Dec 06, 2024

Poppy & Rod is fantastic! Kayleigh’s team has been cutting both my hair and my son’s, and we couldn’t be happier with the results each time. Kayleigh’s attention to detail and talent with the scissors are truly impressive. Beyond her skills, Kayleigh creates such a welcoming, comfortable atmosphere—it’s like catching up with a friend every time we’re there. Highly recommend her salon to anyone looking for top-notch service and an inclusive experience!


Dec 06, 2024

This salon is such a GREAT addition to the neighborhood and the city. Top notch stylists and facility.


Nov 06, 2024

Amazing salon! Everyone is very friendly, helpful, and experienced.


Nov 06, 2024

I found this place a year ago when I moved to town. I've been seeing Jess for color regularly. When I started here, my hair was dry and the color wrong for my skin tone. With Jess's guidance and skill, my hair has never been healthier, and I get compliments on my color all the time! The vibe is casual and friendly and inclusive. One million percent recommend.


Oct 06, 2024

I’ve been getting my hair cut by Erin for almost two years, and I couldn't be more satisfied. Erin always delivers fantastic results and truly understands my style preferences. The salon itself is welcoming and professional, making every visit a pleasure. Highly recommend Erin and this salon for top-notch haircuts and great service! This place rocks!


Sep 06, 2024

I’ve been waiting to find a space like this! I usually go to Kayleigh, but in a pinch have seen several of the other stylists and can honestly say I’d be comfortable going to any of them, which is hushed for me (I spent about three years floating between salons after my former stylist moved on after over ten years with my hair!) The salon itself is adorable and clean, and everyone that works there is talented and knowledgeable. I’ve even started taking my family there!


Sep 06, 2024

Can't recommend this place highly enough. When I moved to town, I searched high and low for a stylist who could handle my extremely thick wavy hair, and was so grateful to finally find Kayleigh and her team. She has a gift for finding the right style and shape for my face and hair texture, and is generally a delight to spend time with. She has done my hair for several years now and every experience -- from trims, to dramatic cuts, to coloring, to event styling -- has been exceptional. Go see Kayleigh, you won't regret it!


Sep 06, 2024

Hands down best salon I have ever been to. I have been to Z Salon. Joseph’s salon. This salon blows them out of the water. The vibe is so pleasant, staff incredible. Steven is amazing and talented artist. He completely transformed my hair. Someone else cut my hair before I went here and messed it up ; they got me in and he did an amazing job. It’s so welcoming when you walk in. All the stylists are amazing and talented. Go check it out! Steven is awesome! Book your appointment with him. I am going back to get my hair colored and canceling with the other salons and will be coming here from now on!!! You will be in good hands with anyone at this salon! So friendly and outgoing people here! 🤩


Sep 06, 2024

I have been going to Poppy&Rod for years now! I see Hannah (who is the best of the best) and have always loved my experience at the salon. It is clean, welcoming and always smells incredible! Highly recommend.


Sep 06, 2024

I have been looking for a long time to find a salon that I felt truly comfortable in. I was with the same stylist for 10 years and after she left the city, I floated for about 3 years from place to place and finally I found Poppy and Rod. I usually get my hair done by Kayleigh, though in a pinch I have visited other stylists, and I have to save that everyone there is knowledgeable, friendly, and truly talented. The space itself is cute and inviting. I’ve even started taking my husband and sons here! Would recommend to anyone.


Sep 06, 2024

I love going to see Erin, I always leave the salon looking fantastic! and everyone else I see leave the salon look amazing! All the stylists there are so nice, and the salon is beautiful. I love having fantasy colors and Erin has always done such a wonderful job! I wanted a very layered hair cut but I wanted to keep my long hair, it's almost down to my waist, everyone has told me that was not possible. Not Erin, she said "got it!" and then did it. I can't stop raving about how I look. The only problem I have with the Salon is I have yet to meet their Salon Floor Manager, Blanche. I guess that is probably a good thing, I love dogs and would have a hard time focusing on my hair with a pretty puppy running around. In all seriousness, I have gone 3 times, twice to get color and a separate time to get my hair cut. I have made appointments for both my boys (7 years old and 14 years old) to get hair cuts and for my oldest to get some fun colors. I could not be happier and can not stop recommending Poppy and Rod to my friends. Just remember, you get what you pay for and I am happy I spent every penny! The pictures in the purple shirt was from my first color and the pictures in the Poppy and Rod cape and the blue shirt are from this last visit. Thank you Erin!


Sep 06, 2024

I've had a number of cuts from Kayleigh at this point, and each time somehow gets better than the last. Everyone at the parlour is so friendly from the moment you walk in. Everyone in our family has gone now and we can't recommend them enough!


Sep 06, 2024

Kayleigh and her team are all stars in every sense. Their talent and attention to detail are unmatched and they are genuinely passionate about what they do and the craft of cutting and coloring hair. They welcome all people and will ensure your experience exceeds expectations. If you're looking for a salon home, look no further!


Sep 06, 2024

So very grateful that I was able to connect with Erin at Poppy & Rod. From the ease of scheduling an appointment to the welcoming and inclusive space of the shop, I can’t say enough good things about both! Erin is a joy to work with. She always surpasses my expectations and does an amazing job making my hair dreams come true. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!


Sep 06, 2024

Steven Fitzpatrick is an absolute gem! From the moment I walked into Poppy and Rod salon, I felt welcomed and at ease. His positive energy truly vibrates through his shears, making every cut and style feel like a rejuvenating experience. Steven takes the time to get to know you, ensuring that each appointment is personalized to your needs. I always leave feeling confident and uplifted. If you're looking for someone you can trust with your hair and your well being, Steven is an incredibly talented and caring individual. Highly recommend!


Aug 06, 2024

Amazing salon with talented hair dressers & stylists. I love the design of the salon & the inclusivity / warm environment the owner has cultivated. Highly recommend


Aug 06, 2024

Best haircut I've ever had. Easily. Kayleigh is a genius and I will never trust another human (or alien) with my hair as long as I live.


Aug 06, 2024

I have been going to Poppy&Rod since they opened, and I am so happy with my experience every time. Friendly, inclusive, clean, and welcoming. Kayleigh and her team are the best.


Aug 06, 2024

I needed a go-to spot after my regular stylist quit, and had no interest in going back to a generic hipster bro taper fade shop. Enter Poppy&Rod - problem solved. Ask for Erin and get treated like a king/queen at this incredibly welcoming and inclusive spot. Best my hair has looked in years, 5 stars.


Aug 06, 2024

I searched high and low to find a good fit in a salon. When multiple people suggested Poppy & Rod I had to give it a try. Kayleigh, the owner, has always been kind, thoughtful & absolutely amazing at her craft. I have also had Hannah do my color & cut multiple times and I cannot say enough good things about her talent. It is an absolutely gorgeous, inclusive & welcoming space. If I could give it a million stars- I would.


Aug 06, 2024

I trust this salon with my life.


Aug 06, 2024

I've been a client at Kayleigh's salon for many years, I'm probably one of the OG's :) She and her entire team is absolutely amazing, I would not go anywhere else or trust anyone else with my hair. She is very creative, talented and just a great person all around. I even question myself: did I get a hairdo that requires me to go frequently only because I like hanging out in her salon with her crew so much... we'll never know...


Aug 06, 2024

I've had cuts and color with three different stylists here over the years. It's amazing that they're all SO GOOD that you can swap stylists if there is a scheduling conflict. That is rare. The owner Kayleigh has put significant thought into making the salon a safe space for all and choosing the perfect employees to support that culture. This is a Louisville gem. If I had to move away I'd travel back just for them <3


Aug 06, 2024

Kayleigh and her team are the best. They create a relaxing and welcoming environment where people are allowed to be themselves. I have never had a bad experience, or a bad haircut, from any of them.


Aug 06, 2024

Love this spot - Kayleigh and her crew are top notch - it’s comfortable- always a beverage or a little snack available if you need it and the space is so beautiful.


Aug 06, 2024

Poppy & Rod is my happy place. Everyone who works at the salon is so kind and welcoming. When I couldn’t see my normal stylist, whoever I saw instead was just as amazing and did a wonderful job. Every stylist here is so talented. I have been seeing Kayleigh for over 3 years now and I am not exaggerating when I say I would trust her with my life. Once I got engaged, I really wanted my hair as blonde as possible without damaging my hair. It was truly a trust the process thing, but Kayleigh had a plan and in the end, my hair was PERFECT! When I first started seeing her, my hair was so damaged and over-processed. My hair is extremely healthy and has grown so long. I love Poppy & Rod!


Aug 06, 2024

Poppy and Rod is the best salon in Louisville Kentucky. Life changing.


Aug 06, 2024

The best salon I’ve ever been to. I always forget how to explain how I like my haircut, but they keep a record and photos of how you prefer it cut that make it effortless to go in. Like a doctor at a checkup, they already know what happened last time and what to do this time. And the scalp massage with every shampoo is a nice bonus.


Aug 06, 2024

When I arrived I was immediately greeted and welcomed at check-in. The shop is very spacious, very clean, and calming. My appointment was with Kayleigh who's space was accommodating. Her friendly personality and professionalism made the whole process a breeze. The actual hair cut was fire too. Everyone should book an appointment!
