L’Oréal is asking all salons, stylists and clients to share their hair stories across social media using the hashtag #HAIRTHELOVE2022IRE and tagging
This connection is something we truly appreciate from our hairdressers, especially after the tough few years the industry, and everyone, have had. “There’s been some tough times in lockdown but the best thing is that it has made us aware of the need we have for each other and the want,” Dylan says. “Clients need us more than they thought they needed us, but we need them just as much. It’s beyond a service, it’s a friendship.
Dylan’s career skyrocketed from there, and he went on to do hair at shows like the Academy Awards, The MTV Music Awards, the Golden Globes, SNL and The Graham Norton Show — but one of his fondest memories is working on a U2 music video in New York. “The great thing about being a hairdresser is that you never have the same day two days in a row, you never even have the same hair. We are all very similar in the creative spaces like hair and beauty because the thought of being in the office, for me, I would die. I get to speak, chat, share moments, and clients get to share with me.
“Running a salon is hard, hard work. Life is super busy and you’re constantly trying to find balance while juggling everything.” Now, she is the proud owner of a salon in Drumcondra, THE SPACE Hair Soul Beauty. And like its name suggests, she founded her salon as a creative space to help people look and feel amazing.When asked to describe her relationship with clients in a few words, she smiles and says, “authenticity, trust and confidence. I love building relationships with clients because then it’s easier to know and deliver exactly what they want.
