A recently qualified barber named Jasmine in Leopardstown gave me an excellent haircut today. Her attention to detail was excellent for someone so young.

Thank you Sabrina

I brought my son to Grafton Barbers Jetland today for his first haircut. I was nervous that he would be out of sorts but Sabrina managed it so well. A great cut and he still has lots of curls ☺️

My son who’s mixed race got his hair done in Wexford, absolute disaster and I’m still feeling bad for taking him there.
His just a toddler, he was absolutely butchered the barber did not spray to wet his hair to make it softer before combing and going in with clippers.
I would have preferred if he had told me he doesn’t know how to do afro hair instead of the pain he caused my child.
It was truly heartbreaking

Man cut

My husband went on Saturday, 24th of August. Been there before but was cut by a man. On last Saturday, it was a woman. My husband showed her an image of what he would like to get. Instead she shaved his sides abd that was it. Very bad service, not recommended at all.

Best around!

I have been a Grafton Barber client for many years throughout different stores. I have always felt the staff very attentive & ambiance in the shop to be pleasant. I recently purchased products online & found the online site very user friendly. I received extra free gifts with my purchase which is always a bonus. Thank You Grafton Barber, you have a lifetime client here.

Terrible customer service in academy street cork
Went in Saturday at 1.25 pm
There was a male and female staff member present
I sat down the male and female barber were cutting customers hair the male barber finished the client and the next client sat down and was getting haircut! The female barber then finished her client I was next there was 2 other customers after me it was 1.55 pm
So
I was next ! She started cleaning her station , brushed the hair from floor behind a door into the corner and then said to male barber I’m going to lunch ! I wasn’t particularly happy as I’d been waiting half an hr so I got up and walked out !
Customer service is terrible they don’t engage with clients ! No manners I’d never go near the place … I walked up the street and went into another barbers and was greeted with hi !
And got my haircut by a very nice chatty person with manners
Give this place a pass as ignorant staff

Went to Dundalk on many occasions had my hair cut from three different barbers all good brilliant service. Was there today and the man who cut my hair butchered it and of course I didn't notice till I went home because he didn't show me the mirror off the back. It's all over the place won't be back disgraceful for €34

Bought my dad a gift voucher for the second time in the Ashbourne branch & they did not honor anything on the voucher that was advertised on the website.
They reluctantly washed his hair in a rush & made him feel very uncomfortable.
Will not be buying another service there again.
