About

A gents shop at number 10, on Paul Street

Head Barbers sits on Paul Street in the middle of Cork city, a short walk from the English Market and Rory Gallagher Place. Gold letters over the door, stone and dark wood on the front — you’re in the right place.

Locals keep coming back for a tidy cut and a bit of patience in the chair. Sarah and Bilal get named a lot in the reviews — people say they listen, take their time, and send you out looking the part. Moumen and Caio get a mention too.

Haircuts, beard trims, a head shave or a hot towel shave. Ring or WhatsApp if you want a particular barber.

Sarah did an amazing job with my mother-in-law’s haircut! She was kind, professional, and really listened to what we wanted. The result was even better than expected — stylish, neat, and exactly what my mother-in-law needed.

I just had my first haircut in Ireland with Sarah, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! She was incredibly attentive and took the time to really understand the look I was going for. I walked out with a fantastic cut.

Friendly barbers, reasonable price. Sara is a marvellous cut 10/10.
