What a beautiful place. All aspects taken into consideration.... very professional and a very modern approach to hairdressing. I really felt important and understood and not judged in any way. Time was taken for a full consultation and orientation to the place.... what a place... Such attention to detail.
Very well organised and the staff know their stuff, from a science perspective to customer care service... outstanding.

Had a nice relaxing visit to the salon yesterday. Left feeling chilled out. Found the G massage & blow dry experience very relaxing; closed my eyes and drifted away. Was well looked after by Anita and Bronagh. Happy with my colour and cut; feel refreshed as it needed it. Enjoyed the different tea choices - Hotel D’amour tea also Stunning Sofia blend with nibbles on the side. ????

We were in for a hair cut for my 4 year old daughter today. We were taken to the back room so I could sit with her comfortably and she could be heard as it was much quieter. It was so lovely how everyone spoke to her first so she could answer for herself. She was made to feel like an adult and absolutely loved her special day out and her hot chocolate with marshmallows! She’s already asking when she gets to go back!

Love my new haircut that Anita had created and styled for me. last week, it looks and feels amazing. This week decided to complete my new hairdo with highlights. Once again I put my trust in Anita, who advised me on what colour to choose. I can strongly recommend Anita not only as a stylist but an expertise in colourist. Thanks Anita, my hair never looked so good.xx

This was my first visit to the salon and it was excellent from start to finish. It was a consultation appointment about getting my hair to grow back following chemotherapy. Kiera was so professional, really knew what she was dealing with and the sensitivity surrounding my issue. I was really impressed and delighted with the products I purchased.

Everyone was lovely. I had my last haircut 6 months ago so my hair was much longer than usual. I had a photo on my phone with the haircut I wanted, I showed it to the stylist but she misunderstood me completely, cut my hair on one side long and the other short… I had to tell her to cut it shorter about 5/6 times. It took 1.5 hours to get my haircut.
I am not a big fan of stylists leaving for 10/15 min for other appointments while clients sitting waiting for them to come back. Last December it took me 2 hours to get wash and haircut.

This was my first visit to Patrick Gildea since the first lockdown as I live in Mayo. It was a birthday present from my daughter Claire (also your client). I felt safe as soon as I went in, after hand sanitizer I was given a bag to place all my belongings into & brought to my station where I met Siobhan. Siobhan talked me through my hair needs & wishes & absolutely, between herself and Elaine the colourist that day, made them all come true. I have residual pain from an old neck injury & was put in a very comfortable position for hair washing & the head massage was dreamy! I went out floating on air & have had nothing but compliments since. It was an amazing appointment & I was made to feel very COVID Safe while there. Thank you to my Claire for giving me such a wonderful birthday gift & to Gildea’s for making me look years younger!

Delighted to be back in Elaine's safe hands today again after 6 months!!! She is amazing at her job & I'm at the stage where I'll agree to almost any colour/cut suggestion she makes, as she knows my hair and "my" likes & dislikes so well.
As for the salon itself, it is superbly set up for social distancing and the space between each client, makes the visit feel so much more private. And there was an air of peacefulness and tranquility during my visit, as there was less people in the salon.
Looking forward to my next appointment already x x
