Hello, Dublin 20 – Great Hair Is Just a Short Journey Away
Dublin 20 is a study in contrasts. You have the convenience of Palmerstown with its shopping centre, schools, and modern amenities. Then you have Chapelizod, one of Dublin's most historic villages, nestled along the Liffey with its pubs, park, and village charm. Whether you are grabbing groceries at Palmerstown Shopping Centre or enjoying a stroll along the Chapelizod Road, you are part of a community that values quality of life.
That same commitment to quality is exactly what we offer at Pair of Shears.
Located at 14B Baggotrath Place, we are just a short hop from Dublin 20 via the N4, or a direct bus ride on the 25, 26, 66, 67, or 68 routes. We have built a reputation among Dublin professionals, but we are equally proud to serve clients from the surrounding areas like Palmerstown, Chapelizod, and beyond.
We are close enough to be convenient via the main roads, but far enough to offer something special: a true barber shop experience with skilled barbers, quality products, and a welcoming atmosphere that feels like coming home.
