my husband and young lad get their hair cut there the whole time. They are very nice girls with fair price. have to agree with you there.

My husband used to go to the barber on dublin st, opposite Umberto's, but stopped in the space of a year the prices had gone up from nine euro, to nine fifty, and stopped off on 12 euro. Everyone time he went in, the price had gone up 50 cent or 1 euro. Very cheeky & expensive.

Get mine cut opposite the old L&N, where the sweet shop used to be.

Pretty good, cheap enough I think.

The one beside Murphs is a bit more expensive but far better though.

yeh i go to fiona across from the l&n or to tara and anne marie. i fidn them all good and they know my hair at this stage:pac:

i get my hair cut by my neighbour, she used to own the "scissors empire" on dublin street. i actually dont trust any one else any more. went to peter marks for that free "model" thing....worst....haircut...ever...

noel farrell

ihave to agree anna mari and tara are very good and the price does not change every time i call in :D

If I were to get a haircut I'd go to Identity. Anna (the owner) used to work in Linda Maher's then opened up her own place about 3 years ago. Nice place, nice staff and nice price.
I haven't been there in a while but I think it was €10 for a dry cut and €15 for a wash and cut.

It's just at the roundabout of New Oak Estate, Staplestown Road and the inner relief road.

What about Man Time ??
I go there all the time and have no problems with the staff or the prices.

aynon

really want to try man time, any idea of the prices?

Must give that place a try, last place I went to did a really bad job, and cost €12 for it!

I had the hot shave and it was only brilliant. Just to sit there and let someone else shave you is great. Just allow a bit of time for it as it can take up to 30 minutes but well worth it I think. Not sure on the price as her indoors always got it for me.
You wouldnt want to be a bit shakey while getting it done. No after effects of the beer or any thing else either. One slip and "slashhhhhhhh" Naw....Paddy The Turk is very good at his job.

The prices for a dry cut is €12 but they did a good job.
I am not sure how they compare with the rest of the places in Carlow but I have used them since they opened and have no problems with them.

Make sure an book for either the cut or the shave. They can get busy.

I know this is slightly off track, but is there a good hair salon around carlow for cut and colour?

Its not for me, is for the girl I work with. She's looking for a place that does a full head dye thing and wash & cut? Don't know the right terms for it all was only half listening.

yeh yeh.. blonde would suit you:cool:

Whosbetter?

Am reading this post with intrest. Personally, I haven't had a decent haircut in the last 10 years. I think a lotta blokes now get the typical skanger 'all off' cut. So much so, that hairdressers nowadays seem to have lost the skills required to give a man a proper haircut.
Nonetheless, I'll give some of the above some of my custom in the near future. Can't be any worse than the usual 'No 1 merchants' I've encountered in recent years.
C'mon, wake up! We're not all Skanks/Going bald. I just want a decent haircut!!!!!!!

how much for a cut in it?

Whosbetter?

Well, took the plunge & tried that place on the top of Tullow St.
Anne-Marie & Tara's.
Seems like they gave me a fairly good cut. Hard to tell yet.
Have to see how it grows out..

More anon..

€12 in Man Time
I was in Tullow the other day and happened to go into a barbers on the bridge. A very friendly lassy and the cut was 8 out of 10 but the conversation was 10 out of 10. Very chatty which is a welcome change at times.
€10 for that.

Can anyone recommend a barber that can do a decent cut as opposed to just using the razor? I've let my hair go a little long and curly (ii's been four and a half months) and just want to get it thinned out and tidied up.

Most places I've been are grand for the grades 1,2,3 or 4 etc. but not sure if i'd trust them with something more intricate.
Would I have to go to a unisex salon probably?

My Da still goes there, used to bring me when I was younger. My Da refers to his regular cut as short back and sides and the ears and the nose!

Anyone remember Billy and Phils? My ma used to drag me there also.

If I get the haircut in Carlow these days its generally Mantime.

Bumping this thread cos I noticed there's a new barbers opened on tullow street near the Permanent TSB. Has an old style look to it. Anyone been to it or is it even open yet?

just passing

Hey,

I was in there last weekend, its some spot... I was gonna open a barbers in town, had a fella lined up to work and all but it fell by the waste side there where the 24hr shop was in town

But this last gives a great cut and washes everyone, shop is class

worth a try

sharky86

always use the on across from the car park at perry's cash and carry.. havent seen the price change in nearly 3 years

Just got back from Ann Marie & Tara's after taking the recommendations on this board. Without a doubt the best haircut I've ever paid for; she asked a few questions, made a few recommendations, and cut it exactly how I wanted it. Plus it only cost a tenner, great value.

Thanks for the recommendation boardsies.

They're not so bad.

I get mine done there these days.

They're not brilliant or anything,but they're okay nonetheless.

Well lads,

Just awake early with kid this morning so dodgeing watching Handy Manny, so im on boards.

I just moved to carlow, see thread Just Moved and thanks to a boardy I tried O'Hara Byrne Barbershop on Tullow St.... have to say its def worth a try, Ive just moved from Dublin and this guy is akin to top dollar haircut in City Centre maybe e30 or more and he charges e12 for wash and cut.

Plus hes only open and its good to give someone a turn, when hes trying to get a new business up and running
