Patrick Gildea Hairdressing Letterkenny, County Donegal

I am very happy with my hair .All the staff make you feel very welcome from receptionist to hair stylists and the admin staff. A real treat.

Thanks to Laura for her consistent professionalism at all my appointments in 2025 her patience to understand what I hoped for with future hair care, explanations of a realistic goal & expectations all delivered with a smile Thank You and sure I’ll see you in 2026 for another hair journey 😊

Siobhan is a fantastic stylist and coloruist. She had a challenge on her hands with my hair as I’d had it previously coloured at a different salon and the result was too warm for my skin tone and grey hair. Siobhan was able to blend cooler highlights and lowlights to bring the colour back to one that complements my natural colouring. She then gave me a lovely cut which complements my face structure. I’m very happy with the results.

Honestly, from start to finish Siobhan was fantastic. Very thorough consultation and really wanted to know what it was I wanted done with my hair! She was kind polite and positive throughout my appointment., Danielle and Zara were super friendly also.

I am delighted with my haircut and colour and blow dry. Excellent work Zeljana.. Thank you so much

I really enjoyed my experience as I am a pensioner I find it a bit expensive maybe you should consider some sort of discount for pensioner looking forward to calling in a again kind regards Cassie

I am very happy with the results of my first hair appointment here. The hair colour is revived, hair looks beautiful and shiny.

A day in Patrick Gildea salon is what the doctor ordered.. you will come out totally relaxed ,feeling and looking amazing .Vickie has been my stylist for quite awhile now and is absolutely amazing ,she just totally gets me and I leave the salon feeling fab 😊😊

Thank you Anita - Your expert service, advice, knowledge, understanding and friendly manner made for a thoroughly enjoyable experience today in Patrick Gildea's Hair Salon.
I went in looking like I'd been dragged through a hedge backwards and came out all expertly coiffed and calm! Delighted with my hair cut and you've used the right combination of products that my hair likes.
Thanks also to Cobhlaith who was tasked with detangling my hair prior to Anita doing a dry cut. No easy task, but you did a great job. I enjoyed our chat during the detangling😊. Well done!

I’ve been coming to Patrick Gildea for years and I’m happy with the results every single time.
The atmosphere is great and the staff are friendly and welcoming.
I had a last minute decision to restyle my hair with a short haircut. The consultation with Zeljana was super fun, she carefully styled my hair and advised me on the colouring. I appreciate the extra thought she gave in the ‘after care’. Cutting the hair such that it can be styled in different ways and even showed me how to do my hair. It has been weeks since my haircut, I have been having fun styling my hair every day since. Thank you Zeljana, I really appreciate your work.

Vicky is simply the best

From reception right through to the end result - can't fault anything and anyone wrong! Shiobhan, the end result looked absolutely great, even better than the picture I showed. Everyone is commenting how great the cut looks. Thank you so much!

Back getting a well needed hair colour and pamper. Siobhan and her girls always very pleasant and helpful. Always look forward to my hair appointments. Thank you.

Great customer service, hair turned out exactly how I wanted it. Thank you!

Another great apt with Vickie. She is so friendly & professional, listens to you & guides you every step of the haircut.

Thank you Vicky for a great treatment for my hair and a great hair cut- you have made an old lady look so much better! And thank you for the yummy shortbread cookies!

Thanks so much Siobhan. I’m very happy with cut, wash and blow dry today. Look forward to seeing you again next time 12th December

I had a lovely relaxed experience today in Patricks great knowledgable advice.. for my fine hair fab cut and blow dry Thank you all very much

Fabulous experience, all staff friendly, stylish does great job on my hair.

As usual it’s the best experience and a special treat for me. Anita is amazing and magic x

Very happy indeed and. Sharon was great fun to

My views are.excellent always ..I've had.a.great experience with all the staff care, attention and.care, couldn't compare to any other hairdressering experience, relaxing, lovely hospitality with coffee and lovely hospitality

Love my hair. Just had full head of highlights today . My hair is shoulder length. But I’m flummoxed as the price was €238 - is this correct? No cut today just colour and Toner. I think Zeljana is brilliant so this is no reflection on her hard work. Thanks !

Excellent stylist and cutter, did a very good job

I have never had a stylist pay so much attention to my hair and understand it as much as Zeljana did last week. She made space for my curls to come to life. My hair feels light but full. I have had several people ask me did I do something with my hair that it looked great. I feel like looking after my hair now. Thank you xxx

Thanks Laura , very happy ,Excellent result .

Super as always and very relaxing.

I have never been to a salon more accommodating in my life. I loved my experience and all the staff were amazing and so professional. I was walked though every step of the way before my hair was even started and also during. I was extremely impressed with how much knowledge they had with curly hair as that is something I always struggle to find at a salon. The cut and color is exceptional and I am so happy with it. My curls have never looked better leaving a salon, to say I’m impressed is an understatement. I definitely will be back again and couldn’t imagine ever going to another salon now.

I am delighted with my new hair cut. The salon is amazing, you’ve thought of everything and your attention to detail is perfection. Thank you

Always lovely experience with Anita.

Anita always delivers excellent service, good advice and fab haircut.

U had a lovely appointment with Zelijana. She was very professional and she gives the best hair wash/massage I have ever had. I got a last minute cancellation and was delighted to have her do my hair. I love the cut and colour.

Excellent result Laura Dean and Cobhlaith were all very professional with their work. Thanks everyone. Patrick you have a great team. The coffee was good too. Everyone so friendly. Congratulations on your awards.

Vicky has the expertise to realise a style which makes you feel like good about yourself Magical!

Lovely appointment with Anita. Love the colour and cut.

To Anita, who was so ably supported and assisted by Dean: Thank you both for your patience in taking time to work with me on deciding on my new hair colour and then being sooooo patient in making sure I was happy with the final result. I am delighted and so grateful to them both for their patience, perseverance and professional manner. My dream team!

I have been coming to Patrick Gildea's for several years, and the service is consistently excellent every single time. From the moment you walk through the door, you are greeted with a warm welcome and a relaxed, friendly atmosphere.

The team are always professional, attentive, and genuinely focused on making sure you are comfortable and happy with your experience.

Vicky is incredibly skilled and has such a calm and relaxed approach that it instantly takes the stress out of your day. It’s like hitting pause for a little while, you can just sit back, unwind, and know you are in good hands.

I always leave feeling refreshed and relaxed. It’s rare to find a place that delivers top notch service so consistently. It’s clear they really care about both the quality of their work and your experience as a client. Highly recommend!

Excellent as always

Sharon was so kind and efficient and fixed a catastrophic hair cut into a gorgeous new style. Im so pleased. Def will be back.. ☘️

An amazing experience in a beautiful private room, with a brilliant hairdresser who intuitively knows how much guidance to provide and just the right amount of empathy at a difficult time.
My wig turned out better than I ever imagined. Nothing was too much and you would think Patrick had all the time in the world.
He got it just right with no unnecessary extras or expense. I'd recommend Patrick Gildea's Donegal Wig Centre to anyone.

Another lovely visit after a lengthy period of recovery following surgery. Such a lovely calm friendly atmosphere from the moment I walked through the door till the moment I left. Great cut and chat with Sharon. The service is superb, cant fault it. The salon is so clean too, needs more stars in that section as does the service.
