I was very happy with Juniana's suggested hair cut and she did a great job of explaining it and why it was cut that way to suit my hair. I would highly recommend her .

All the staff were very pleasant, attention and advise from Laura was reassuring on going forward with my grey transition. I was very pleased with the first step of this journey. The cleanliness was exceptional and atmosphere was enjoyable. However, it was more expensive than I have been used too. But overall very satisfied with my first experience at Patrick Gildea salon.

Today I had my six week appointment with Anita for colour and cut. As usual the service I received from her was fantastic from advice about my hair condition, colour and improving the style. Anita listens and advises in a warm, informative friendly way and you leave your appointment with her feeling a million dollars. Thank you Anita

Due to an injury I can only reach the back of my head with one arm and can't blow-dry my hair properly. Plus I have a double crown so need some length at the back to keep my hair from spreadeagling in all directions. I explained all of this to the stylist and told her what I wanted. But I ended up with layers at the back that need styling I can't do. I also felt a bit pressurised to buy home treatment products, despite having already said that I was using Redken products that seemed to be helping. Overall a disappointment.
