I have been going to House of Colour Middle Abbey Street for many years now but had the most upsetting experience yesterday and felt I was treated very badly. I had an appointment yesterday morning for 11.30 for a cut and colour with the stylist I usually see. Today is my is birthday so it was supposed to be treat day as I travel quite a long a way. I am also 28 weeks pregnant. Having had the colour put my hair I was left sitting until after 13.00 with the colour still in. Then i was moved to the sink to be told that there was no hot water. Eventually had colour rinsed out and was left again to sit and wait. 14.00 and still no sign of anybody. I had become cold from sitting with a wet head for hours and was starting to get cramps....not ideal being 6 months pregnant. I decided that it was unfair to expect me to wait any longer and took off my gown and left with still a wet head and no hair cut!! My day absolutely ruined. I am not an unreasonable person and understand that emergencies arise. The point is that I was ignored for all that time with nobody having had the decency or professionalism to tell me what was happening, offer an alternative stylist, to go away and come back or something!!! I am still quite upset about it today because of the way I was treated and the whole day was spoiled. I will not be recommending house of colour in the future and most definitely will never be back!!!!!

my first visit to house of colour was a few weeks bk. as soon as i walked in to the haidressers.. it was amazing from the start.. lovely friendly staff...so welcoming. a young girl called steph looked after me. she was excellent at her profession.. so friendly, bubbly and she made my time there so enjoyable. my highlights, cut and blowdry was fantastic.. i was extremely happy leaving house of colour that day. i returned abt 2 weeks later for a wash and blowdry and a young girl called amy washed my hair and looked after me until steph again took over. both girls were fantastic.. again so welcoming.. so friendly and my hair was with a head massage was fantastic. steph blowdryed my hair and i felt a million dollars.. i am looking forward to my next appt. i wld highly recommend house of colour, professional, friendly and total care for their customers.

I’ve booked an appointment and informed that I’m a newbie to hair coloring. I asked for highlights and have black hair. had a quick consultation with the director in abbey street and we agreed upon coloring with dark burgundy. They’ve provided some treats and water with wide options of coffee/tea/wine. They charged me 137€ and the color is mild and it’s barely visible or not at all visible on black hair. She asked me to come back again in the next upcoming week for more bright coloring tint and bleach. Instead she would have advised that highlights wouldn’t be helpful for black hair and at the start I would have gone with tint and bleach rather than spending money twice. Summary not happy with the output and will not recommend to anybody.

Avoid. Completely botched my colour, lightened roots to an orange with baylage when I wanted my natural ash brown to not be lightened at all. Yes they fixed for free but only once. The "fix" is a toner over yellow orange that washes out after a couple of weeks. That one mistake has cost hundreds to fix again every few weeks. Top top it off I was lied to about wellaplex told it was the same as olaplex wich it certainly is not. They claim to be an olaplex salon but not listed as an olaplex customer, so do they pass wellaplex off as olaplex or do they buy olaplex from the back of a lorry or dodgy website

My experience here was OK, but it felt a bit rushed. It was great to get my highlights put in so quickly, but afterwards they were a bit yellow for my liking, and the highlights were a bit far from the roots at the front of my hairline on one side. I've had better highlights done when my roots were worse so I don't think it was because of the length of the regrowth. Then when the stylist was cutting my hair she basically gave me the kind of layering she thought would look best without consulting me, which I didn't end up liking. Overall it was OK but I won't be coming back and wouldn't recommend to anyone.

I have been going there for cuts for year and I've always been happy. This year however I was given to a different girl, who convinced me to get a hair dye (well she did insult my hair until I felt terrible about it). I've asked multiple times if she was sure as I am not Irish and have thick hair I already had bad experience with hair dyes in other saloons. She said they were 100% used to my hair. Results? I ended up paying 200 +Euro for a root shadow which was not even what we agreed on.

Been going to HOC Abbey Street the last few years. Always delighted with the results - Jodie, the salon manager is like a magician with hair and offers her honest professional opinions/recommendations on coloring, styling, and hair care. Staff are all lovely and go out of their way to look after you (and your coffee cup will never be empty!). I always look forward to my appointment at House of Colour - see yous soon!

I came in to get a haircut and very natural highlights - while the service was great, the result of the colour unfortunately was not at all what I wanted. The salon offered me to come back and have it corrected which was great. Upon return Tonya was the hairstylist taking care of me - highly recommended! She fixed the unnatural looking highlights and offered great service - thanks again!

FAKE QIQI TREATMENT! Wasted 200+ euros on Qiqi treatment for my hair. My hair was back to the same old frizzy texture. They were okay only until their blow dry lasted. Later they were again rough and dry, even after using their recommended shampoos and conditioners. It’s pretty clear that their treatment is false and they are lying basically about the same - that it’d last 12 weeks!!

It was my second visit to House of Colour for highlights and cut. My colour unfortunately was not at all what I wanted. The salon offered me to come back and have it corrected,, which was great. That's how you treat your customers! They pumper you, offer tea or coffee and just make sure you leave this place beautiful. I highly recommend this place!. Great service, thanks again!

From the minute I entered the salon it was such a positive experience. Great consultation with Olive where I felt she really listened to me and then gave me her advice, which I took. The haircut she gave me is great, a more modern shape , lighter yet with more volume which is what I was looking for. Already looking forward to getting the colour done next.

If nothing else, the free prosecco is worth the 5 stars! In all honesty though, this place is brilliant. I'm the pain in the hoop that arrives in with a filtered photo from Pinterest and is like "give me this exact hair" and expects to leave looking like that. Carmel has been my saviour for the last year. Their prices are totally reasonable too

My hair has been completely butchered and thinned out. I specifically said I don't want my hair thinned out. There are pieces of hair all over that are a good few inches shorter than the layers of hair on top. Absolute nightmare. If you have curly hair they don't have a clue how to cut curly hair here , thinning hair out is not adding texture

Love my new hair. Olive and the team are the best in the business. From the warm welcome to the delicious coffee, the House of Colour experience is more than just a hair cut. My mood is lifted, my hair is looking fab and after a horrible lockdown, I'm feeling like myself again - the best version of me!

They can't do brown people hair. Tested my hair dark black for the bleech and said the bleech didn't work with my hair. I ended up going to my usual hairdresser. Also when I did go in to get my hair tested for the bleech the girl forget to take my number didn't bother calling me back to let me know

Tanya is brilliant! Went in for a blow dry and styling and what a fabulous experience with great results! She told me she's there Fridays and Saturdays so I will be popping in again for a treat!! Nice salon experience in general and all the staff seemed very nice and genuine. Recommended!!

Very disappointed with my visit here. No proper consultation and advice given on style or colour. Abby Street shop is grubby and run down. €200 later and no one even noticed I got my hair done, waste of money and time. I attended on the 24th Aug 2021.

I have very fine curly hair, naturally dark. I've had a lot of problems with stylists not understanding my hair in the past but everyone here knows what they are talking about and did a fantastic job at getting me back to blonde! Highly reccomend

Always delight with how my hair looks after visiting House of Colour. Very reasonably priced considering the location and the talent staff. The complimentary extras like snacks and drinks always make my visits that much more enjoyable.

I had a great experience in dolier street the young man s name was jordan he was very polite mannerly and very attentive would highly recommend him to my friends and i will definitely be going back to have my hair done thanks jordan

I absolutely love my hair cut! I had an idea of what I wanted, but Tanya executed it perfectly! She gave me a suggestion on what she thought would look great, and then she did it! I definitely want to go back!

Staff is always very nice and I like to get there blow dry. It's always the way I want. Sometimes they have delay and then you end up waiting pretty long time. It happened to me good few times already.

Welcome back to you all had a FANTASTIC experience as always Carmel is AMAZING at her job all the staff are so friendly and welcoming love going there Happy Christmas to you all stay well and safe

I couldn't recommend Linda in the Abbey street salon enough. She listened to what I wanted, make a few suggestions and did an amazing job with my balyage and cut. I will definitely be back again

Always have a great time there. They do exactly what I want with my hair, the treats and head massage are bonuses, the staff are fab (I love that they refer to customers and clients as guests).

The staff were very friendly and super professional. The hospitality was also great with lovely coffees and snacks offered throughout my visit. My hair was exactly how I wanted it. Excellent.

Dark, dingy, cold salon. In serious need of an upgrade. Rushed experience with rude, loud staff having unprofessional conversations in front of clients.

Great place to get a haircut, a bit on the pricey side but we'll worth it. The stylists really pamper their customers and pay attention to every detail.

I last dyed my hair over 20 years ago. I came to House of Colour after they were recommended by a friend. Great service and very happy with the result!

I Got My Hair Dyed Blonde Here Recently Very Good Value In Comparison To Other Places In The City Centre , The Girl Was Very Patient With Me
