Patrick Gildea Hairdressing Letterkenny, County Donegal

I thought Vicky very knowledgeable about what would suit my face. She talked me through the whole process and suggested to shave parts of my new short style. I felt confident and relaxed the entire time and I am absolutely delighted with my new look. So much so that I will be returning .

Had an amazing experience with Bronagh, listened to my needs as well as giving me advice on my scalp concerns. She was able to explain in great detail the treatments that are available and what would benefit me. Bronagh is a natural, fantastic with sales, knowledgeable and wonderful stylist who made me feel at ease. Already booked my next appointment and looking forward to it!

Kiera, is an amazing hairdresser. She is also skilled at putting you at ease and taking time with you. I can't say enough about her attention to detail and how amazing she is at cutting and styling hair. However the best thing about her is that she makes me laugh so much that getting my hair done is no longer a chore!!
Beautiful clean friendly salon. Very friendly.

Love my hair ❤️

Thank you Patrick for my amazing style for my holidays!

Had lots of compliments regarding my last cut. Am expecting even more after the style today!

Excellent

I had a wonderful “experience” from start to finish this was an “enjoyable experience away from a busy world” not a hair cut
Way above that thanks folks excellent service

Fantastic cut. Anita is lovely, very professional and talented. Gave me great advice, felt like I was in safe hands and I definitely was!

Anita was brilliant so professional. She explained everything to me and I love my new hairstyle.

Vicky was fabulous as usual. Felt so much better for a lovely relaxing visit. The cut and colour are amazing

Wonderful experience, as always. From the moment you enter the salon you are greeted by your name (which makes you feel that you are a valued customer). You leave behind your mundane world and feel pampered and relaxed. The staff is very professional and I trust and value their advice. Attention to detail is amazing.

Always happy with my hair. Vicky is a great stylist

Thank you Megan and Clodagh for taming my unruly hair and making me feel happy again! ?

Megan really went the extra mile for my hair needs today. The job was huge as I had a lot of regrowth and my hair is so so very thick. I really appreciated the in depth consultation as the result was on point! Megan has a natural talent for understanding moods/vibes via sample pics and is great at actualizing your goal. Highly recommend.

Best cut I’ve had I love it

So delighted with everything. And will be back at the end of October.
Many thanks Vicky your all you advice and I just love the haircut and colour.

Vicki worked her magic again .. I was completely transformed xx

From start to finish I felt so at ease. And loved my new hair style. Megan talked me through every stage and explained all the products

Delighted with the results…Sharon knew exactly what I was trying to explain and I knew I could trust her with the process .

My service was both professional and enjoyable. All my concerns were addressed

Anita was fantastic, very friendly, professional and gave an excellent wash, cut and blow dry.
Attention to detail excellent. Salon very relaxing and facilities very good. Would definitely recommend.

My visit was very enjoyable,courteous,efficient,pleasant, professional and very hospitable.

I would describe my experience today very positive. I got low lights and italking with Sharon and Anita they got my colour match just right. I don't colour my hair too often and was initially anxious but I'm delighted with the result,, so professionally done.. thank you so much.

I’ve never had my hair washed at such a comfortable basin…all the staff were so nice as well

Back to School in style for my daughter tomorrow, thanks to lovely Megan who was able to understand my 9 year old's vision for a 'midi butterfly cut'. She floated out of the salon with a huge smile. She's so excited to show it off to everyone at school. Thank you so much Megan!

Once again an hour of pampering.
A professional hair experience

So happy with the results Megan is brilliant at what she dose

Thank you Vicky for a lovely wash and blow dry.
My hair feels so good.
Thank you for your expertise and all your advice and product information.

I've been a client of Keira's for several years now and I can honestly say I'm always delighted by her care and her honesty!!! She listens to whatever I say about the style and her suggestions are always right.

Top class experience today, thank you Vickie for the lovely colour, your approach and expertise is unreal, to Clodagh for the relaxing G-massage and to Oisin for the nice hot cuppas ❤️

Kiera was fantastic and professional from start to finish. She gave me so much advice with regards to managing my curly hair and which techniques and products to use to achieve the perfect curl.
I'm absolutely delighted with my curly cut and colour. Having travelled from Belfast for my curly cut and colour it was totally worth the journey.

I really enjoyed my experience today. For the first time ever I didn't feel nervous about getting my hair cut. Anita made me feel very relaxed and she's very confident in what she does.

Yes got in great and will see you on the 7th of September

Vickie is just gorgeous, I always look forward to getting my hair done by Vickie. She is very professional and I love our little chats. She is a shining star!!

I visited Patrick’s salon 10 days ago as a new client.

The positives :-
I was met by the very attentive junior staff , who conducted a tour of the salon which is beautiful.
The sinks are very comfortable and and the refreshments plentiful .
My stylist conducted a through consultation and as a new client I also benefited from Patrick’s input.
A plan of my visit was settled on and I was looking forward to the transformation.

The Negatives :-
My colouring did not go according to plan which resulting in me having a orange streak down the front of my hair :( , what followed was a lengthy process to rectify it , which resulted in my hair being dyed n re dyed , the lengthy time extension clearly had a knock on effect to my stylists other clients and although she remained very professional and calm on the surface it was clear that there was some swan like panic in the salon .

I was due to go out in the evening which I had made them aware of but sadly after six hours in the salon I never got home until 9pm .

stylist asked if she could take some pictures at the end of the appointment as Patrick would like to see the result ( he had long since left the salon ).
I am very happy with my cut and although the colour is fine at the moment my concern is that after a few more washes my orange streak maybe back!!!

Most upsetting of all was the fact that none of the inconvenience caused to me was recognised at the till and 100% of the bill was requested and settled.
This is not a cheap salon and I have no problem paying for A* service but this is not what I received on this occasion .

Megan was amazing and professional from start to finish. She was very informative in regards to managing curly hair and which products and techniques to use to achieve the perfect curl.
I'm now delighted to have someone in town that can achieve the Curly Cut ✂️.

Had a lovely experience. Got a cut wash and blow dry . Love how it turned out ??

Excellent service lovely staff

Very happy with my visit today.
Delighted with hair style.

Love the colour Thank You Bronagh?

I got my colour and cut refreshed by Sharon today, Sharon is very good at her job , I am very Happy with it , it turned out very nice .Aoise done excellent work in the wash area.

Irene was very nice and pleasant. She was attentive and gave me a good haircut

Megan looked after my colour and cut in a most professional and friendly manner. She advised me well re colour and gave me a super hair wash…A wonderful experience overall.

From the best and most relaxing shampoo and head massage from Nicole to the brilliant cut and chat with Bronagh all followed by Laura's professional and gentle approach with drying, I had such a lovely experience. All the stylists really care about what they do and they really made me feel great! Thank you all so much!

I visited the Salon 10 days ago and was met by very warm and friendly junior staff .

The positives : The salon is beautiful and I enjoyed the personal guided tour as a new client , I found the basins and chair very comfortable and refreshments plentiful.

My consultation with Irene for a Colour and cut was through and I felt she had good knowledge of products used and advised me accordingly.
I also was lucky enough to have Patrick’s input/ advise that differed slightly to Irene’s .

The Negatives : After trying some lighting foils as advised by Patrick it was clear that we had not developed the desired result - a very long story short my hair had to be re - coloured in a bid to cover the Orange streaks we had achieved.
This clearly caused a lengthy delay ( 6 hours in salon ) and had a knock on effect to Irene’s other clients .
Irene / Patrick did their best to manage the situation on the surfaces but it did feel like there was an element of panic going on .

My greatest disappointment was that the lengthy delays and hiccups were not recognised at the till , full payment was requested and paid . - I was due out on the Fri day night at 8pm ( which I made Patrick aware of ) but didn’t get out of the salon till 8.15 ?.
All in all I feel my time and inconvenience should definitely been taken into consideration when the bill was being drawn up .

Irene took some pictures of my hair for Patrick to see the next day as he had long since left the salon and I was overall happy with how my hair looked when leaving the salon , However my hair has been washed twice since and I think before long I’m going to be orange again on the lifted streaks and will need to get this rectified .

Sadly not quite what I was expecting from a top end salon .

I had a wonderful experience from the moment I entered the salon to leaving it. A warm and friendly welcome was given by the staff and the consultation and cut from Keira was completely tailored to me with expert advice given on styling. I couldn’t recommend this salon more!

I have been going to Kiera now for many years and she has my total trust. She is so professional and so knowledgeable and there is no such thing as an off day. Every visit is first class. She’s definitely in a league all of her own. Thank you Kiera.

Vicky is amazing, she’s as kind and informed as she is talented hair stylist. Every day in her chair is a treat. Thank you Vicky
