    Always do great haircuts, friendly service and have a great loyalty scheme for regular customers. Open on Sunday too which is a bonus.

    The race is most definitely on, will I go bald before I go grey? Will grey manage to just sneak in…read morebefore the last of my beloved follicles gives way to gravity? The smart money seems to be on a shiny dome before I'm 40, the big tell-tale being the feeling of water on an oh so very exposed bald patch as the barber sprays my hair in preparation for a cutting. It is the turn of the Beacon barbers to try and make me look respectable and they are doing a pretty good job, though the scissors could do with a bit of a sharpening. End result is I look less like a homeless bum than usual; people have stopped throwing coins at me as I walk down the street and asking me if I have anywhere to sleep this evening, which is a good start. Cost is 15 for a dry cut, not the most expensive but unlike most other places they don't do a reduced rate mid-week. Overall grand but won't be my regular spot, deserves a 3.5 out of 5 but because we can't do halves I'll err on the side of generous with a 4/5.

    Would definitely NOT recommend here for hot towel shaves. Having spoken numerous times to them…read morebefore my brothers wedding to ensure they had the staff and experience to give the groom and his 2 groomsmen hot towel shaves on the morning of the wedding, the wedding party arrived on the morning of the wedding to discover only 1 member of staff. Luckily for one groomsman, they ran out of time and didnt manage to give him his shave. The member of staff managed to cut both gents he gave hot towel shaves to. The groom had to shave again when he got home and try his best to cover the numerous cuts on his neck. Extremely disappointed.

    Lorcan's Men's Hairdressing hasn't changed, I should think, since the Stillorgan Shopping Centre…read moreopened, as Ireland's first Shopping Centre, in 1965. The interior of this shop is fabulous, for having hidden upstairs somehow impervious to Celtic Tiger renovation or sale, Lorcan has kept a perfect, bomb shelter-like relic of the early sixties completely intact. Tear drop shaped multi-coloured lamp fixtures, long floral-patterned sofas, and futurist barbers chairs all plumb a line back to the optimism that must've surrounded this centre in it's hay-day. The wonderful and tragic reality is that a major Irish company have bought the centre and will soon raze it to it's foundations and re-launch it reformed in ways more pertaining to current taste. This is wonderful for Mr. Lorcan, the settlement must be considerable, but tragic that this bomb shelter may not weather many more years. Mr. Lorcan does a fine cut and claims to be the baldness soothsayer, claiming to be able to spot the baldies early in their teens. He kindly neglected to actually deliver my forecast which I doubt is hopeful. So, I'd better try to make it back to Lorcan's Men's Hairdressing before both it and my hair disappear forever. I'm going to give a five here, this place is brill.

I first went there in 1966 and for the past 20 years I have been there every four weeks. I would always turn up at about 7.55 am, to avoid queueing, and he would always be there, ready to chat while he worked. Mind you, he was very good at extracting information while giving very little away about himself. I saw from a notice in one of the papers that he was formerly of Arva, Co.Cavan so that may have had something to do with it! Having a haircut will not be the same again. May he rest in peace.

    My husband has just had a haircut and hot towel shave this morning Wednesday 26th October. They…read morelooked after him very well. He has early onset Parkinson and finds it difficult to shave sometimes. He will without a shadow of a doubt be making this a regular trip to this barber. Will highly recommend to family and friends.

    Sad to say that this once great place seems to have hit a massive downturn in recent years. I've…read morebeen going 5/6 time a year since about 2014 or thereabouts and always loved it. The service, quality, experience etc was always great. The cash-only system was a little annoying but still didn't put me off. The best part of it was that I never felt I needed a specific barber. No matter who it was, I always trusted them and it went well. Little touches like the head massage and wax/gel were always appreciated as well and while they've been missed since the pandemic, it was still the place for me. Until now unfortunately. The last three or four experiences have been poor for various reasons, but this week was a new low. My barber couldn't get his head around the basic request to keep the fringe so short it's barely even there. I get that a lot of lads now like having the fringe to brush back or to the side but that's not for me. I realised halfway through that his English wasn't up to speed (he had to point at my eyebrow when asking if I wanted them trimmed) so rather than understanding "no fringe at all" he was relying on using his fingers to get the length right and despite saying "take more off" and "make it shorter" over and over and even going back to take more off after he thought we were finished, I still left with about an inch more than I wanted and had to get a hairdresser friend to finish the job. He even tried to style it in a way that made me look like a 1920s gangster Steve Buscemi would play. Good luck to him but I think he needs better support from his colleagues if he's going to succeed. The bossman seemed to be at the til the whole time and didn't offer any help. I blame him more than my barber. I won't be back. Now I have to find a new barber after nearly a decade!

    Terrible barbers. They advertise opening hours to 9pm on a Thursday but if you call up at 8pm they…read moresay they are taking no more even though there are only 3 people waiting. When asked why it says they open until 9pm they just tell you they are not taking anymore people. They must be making too much money!!! Not friendly at all. I'm sure the owner would not appreciate the staff turning away business. I was told the above by a blonde girl on 31st May just so the manager knows!!! Will not be going here again!!!!!!

And clean up eyebrows?" Ah...the wonderful Irma at Knights in Dundrum has been the salvation of my very very difficult to manage curly/cowlicky/disobedient (and slowly thinning, dammit) locks since I finally found somebody who actually knows how to CUT hair, not just run a set of clippers around it until I look like a football hooligan. This small shop sports 4 chairs and a multiplicity of nationalities serving their customers. My personal barber, who I will wait through three rounds of other offers of help until she's free if I have to, uses the scissors, the clippers, and the straight razor to keep me in fine trim. All that and a shampoo for 20 quid and plus a generous tip. Now, they aren't the most chatty group with their customers, most being from foreign countries that as a die-hard Californian I find it genetically impossible to remember (Latvia? Lithuania? Louisiana?), and I'm pretty sure she never remembers who I am until I'm in the chair and she looks at me criticly to say despairingly "Ah, yes, you always shave too high on this side, I cannot to make evens", but I've seen them work with everybody from grumpy aul' fellas to squirrely kids, and do a great job all the way around. Bottom Line: If you're not a metrosexual but do appreciate a bit of manscaping to keep the Dumbledore look to a minimum, let them strap a collar around you and go to work...
