It's not often that I find people who know exactly how to make my hair look its best (I have really thick straight hair) but you did a fabulous job. Thanks so much!!! I felt really comfortable the entire time, especially since I was getting a pretty big chop from long hair to a bob. I booked on a weekday night and popped in right after work. It was perfect since there wasn't too many people waiting around. Hilary was extremely patient and I had her undivided attention the entire time. I'm definitely coming back in the near future!

The girl that did my hair, Nicola, was so flawless as to take my breath away (I LOVE Ireland!). She was so nice and so attentive. She had someone else run over and it pushed my appointment a little later but she was so gracious and sweet that I didn't even care. I love this salon, it's pretty and perfect and has all the right tools to wrestle my hair into a presentable style, also thanks to Nicola. She's a magician! I didn't really have to do much except show her a photo and my hair was done in no time. She really listened and paid attention and gave me the perfect blowout. She even gave me a small discount for having to wait. So nice! I am very picky about my hair and this salon did everything right, I was completely satisfied and I can't wait to return on my next visit! Thank you, Nicola!

I was planning a drastic haircut and to donate my hair. I stopped by Ella Hair as it was my local…read moreto see if they'd do it. They were so lovely and accommodating. I went back for my appointment on a busy Saturday morning and it was obvious that the staff knew everyone. It has a lovely atmosphere. After checking I was sure I really wanted the chop - they helped me by braiding my hair for the donation and cutting it off. I then got the usual wash and cut treatment and I totally love the style Ciara gave me. Wash, cut and blowdry is normally 35, which is great value. When I went to pay they knocked ten euro off the price to contribute to my donation, which I thought was the soundest thing. Ella Hair has all the best things about being a local hairdressers and a stylish salon.

Plus, he offered me magazines, tea & prosecco. Their is a room upstairs to relax in & the room to wash hair feels like a nightclub but relaxing at the same time. Must see! My coloring was amazing & he took a lot of time to color small strands of hair versus other stylist who are always in a hurry. The pricing may be slightly high but the amount of time & service spent makes you feel like you're getting a spa treatment so it's well worth the $$. I'll definitely return!

The same hairdressers have worked here since then, and my father now travels all the way from Wexford to get his hair cut here as he doesn't trust anyone other than his regular hairdresser to touch his curly locks.

There were plenty of appointments available and my wash/blowout came out great. Stylist was speedy and knew how to give some loose curls and body without hot tools. My ends usually frizz on day 2-3 but it lasted well beyond that. Very very grateful we were neighbors!

The stylist who did my hair was very friendly and excellent in terms of cut and colour. I got a nice cupcake and latte, and the area where they wash your hair has nice massage chains and was very relaxing. The staff were all very friendly and professional. She also gave great advice regarding cuts and colours that would suit me and showed a few examples on her iPad. The only drawback is that it's super expensive and costs a lot more than any other salon I had ever been to. I paid around €91 for a wash, cut and blow dry. Brown Sugar is probably like the Brown Thomas of the hair dressing world, so it was a one off treat nice treat. Overall: A a very sophisticated salon with excellent service at a cost.
