Thank you Laura for your brilliant work and confidence in meeting my somewhat impulsive and definitely ambitious plan to shed about ten pounds of hair off my head today. Pleased with Laura’s meticulous and skilled work as usual.

I'd like to take this opportunity to thank Vicky for all her care, talent and professionalism over the years I have been attending Patrick Gildea Hairdressing. She takes time to discuss and advise your needs with regards to style and hair care.

I have been a loyal client of Vicky for nearly 20years, and I cannot recommend her enough. She is absolutely fantastic at her job and an incredibly skilled talented hairdresser who consistently delivers perfection every time. Whether it’s a simple trim or completely new style Vickey always knows how to bring my vision to life. Beyond her undeniable expertise, Vicky’s Professionalism and warmth makes every appointment an absolute pleasure. She is always so pleasant, attentive and genuinely cares about her clients. Over the years, I have never been disappointed with a haircut or style she has given me, which is a testament to her unwavering commitment to excellence.

Bronagh was good, did a nice job on Elises hair. I take her in regularly for her cut and blow dry on the family journey as I am a regular customer. Usually she gets wee plaits too. Today I was told it would be a bit extra for the plaits, I said OK but was surprised when I was charged 38E for what I usually pay 19E for. I don't mind paying a bit more for plaits but I feel double the price is too much and I feel a bit ripped off.

It’s difficult to put into words how amazing this hair salon is! I brought my 89 year old mum who has dementia. I arrived (a bit stressed!) and left feeling like a million dollars. All the staff were told in advance about my mum’s condition and that she can become agitated. At the start she was a bit agitated but the staff from the receptionist (who helped her out of my car) to the stylists were all so kind. Patrick treated her with such respect and dignity (as well as giving her a great haircut!) I could not speak more highly about the service that we got. A big thank you also to Sharon also who (while my mum’s hair was being cut by Patrick) gave me the best haircut I’ve got for years. Thank you so much to all the staff. This was not 5 star but 6 star treatment!
