Convenience sake: Brazilia, South William Street This place is ideal when you want to get in and out quickly, with absolutely no messing or hanging around. You can get Shellac for €25 and removal is free as long as your nails were done in the salon. It’s also very handy for waxing and as it’s right in the middle of the city centre, lunchtime and after-work appointments are standard. Tip: Make your appointment a good week in advance as the evening appointments fill up very quickly.
Tanning made easy: Polish Spa, Fitzwilliam Street I don’t think I’m alone in saying the fake tan phobia is real. Apply it yourself and you risk a beauty disaster, get a spray tan and you just have to hope it results in the exact shade you asked for. Thankfully, Moroccan Tan gives a natural sunkissed glow that fades off naturally, YAY. Tip: The salon stays open until 8pm from Monday to Friday, so handy for those pre-party spray tans.@callanandcompany #ritualroom #callanandco #salonlife #dublinsalon #makeup #hair #hairandmakeupsalon #hairstyle #makeupartist A photo posted by callanandco (@callanandcompany) on
Pedi perfection: Edvard & Pink, Dundrum Town Centre Bearing your feet after months wearing socks and heavy boots isn't exactly pleasant. Hard skin, overgrown cuticles, yellowing toenails...you get the grim picture. The good news is a pedicure will sort you out and Margaret Dabbs is the name you need to know about. Margaret is a podiatrist and her 'Medical Pedicure' is all about treating the feet while making them look pretty at the same time. Tip: Her foot file actually works for hard cracked heels and you'll see results straight away. A genuine game-changing treatment.
Speedy style: Roller Blow Bar, Forbes Quay
This secret haunt is perfect for a quick blow-dry where you can get in and out with no hassle or fuss.
The ladies behind Roller, Sonia Flynn and Orna Holland, both work in the tech industry and have described themselves as "self-confessed blow dry addicts".
They know how essential a good hair day is for an important presentation or interview and so, Roller was born.
Well-lit, spacious, marble aplenty, an extensive blow-dry menu (hello Weekender) and coffee on the go. What's not to love?!
Tip: there's takeaway cups specifically for coffee on the go. Genius.
