Brough my daughter for a cut and Shannon and the team were excellent. Very professional and very friendly and kind. My daughter loved her hair and Shannon was quick to pick up on her not wanting “too much off it”, resonated with her straight away and made her feel very welcome. Shannon also was very good at giving her a few tips and tricks to get a glossy, straight blow dry herself when at home. Thank you!
Marc is a wonderful hairdresser. He always asks me about my hair, how I managed it from the last haircut, like/dislikes, etc And then he works his magic. I couldn’t recommend him highly enough. All the Ballance team are friendly and welcoming and look after their customers so well.
Today I visited Ballance to get a blow dry and, truthfully, from the moment I walked in there, I felt like a priority. I was offered a coffee and magazines were placed in front of me. Just like pre-Pandemic times when the customer service included those wee perks. My hairstylist then brought me to the basin and thought that I might like the leg lift for more comfort. Nice and relaxing. After lathering with this amazing eucalyptus shampoo, my stylist offered a head massage (with lovely coconut essence) and it was really wonderful. She did an amazing blow dry and my pals complimented my hair all evening! She even did a wee trim on an uneven fringe. All in all, I was so happy with my experience. Unfortunately the only stickler was that I couldn’t use Apple Pay today and so, with a lost bank card, I had to scramble to sort the remaining fee out on another account. The poor girl ended up with no tip as I didn’t carry cash… but I owe her one!! All in all, I’d definitely pop in again, it’s a little pricey but the service was the best I had experienced in a long time. Thank you 🙏🏻 so much. I would recommend Ballance anyday!
This salon is amazing, all of the staff are absolutely lovely and make you feel welcome. Additionally they take the time to listen to what you want and give great advice. I get highlights done and each time I have been amazed at how great it turns out.
Great service today in Ballance. Thanks Shauna for my cut and blow dry. Love it. And Tara(a big welcome back 🤗) for my colour. Lovely beautician there too. Very happy with my brows and my shellac. Great value too. All in all a lovely day 😊
Tia coloured and cut my hair last Friday. I could not have been happier. Everyone there was very pleasant. A lovely environment, but more importantly a very professional & knowledgeable service. I booked my next appointment straight away. Highly recommended.
Absolutely loved my session today with Marc! Hair is looking fabulous and getting a ton of compliments:-) thank you!
First haircut in Ireland at Ballance, Leopardstown and I’m very happy, lovely style; I have curly short hair and I’m so happy, thank you.
Brilliant service, brilliant atmosphere, very friendly and professional, miles ahead of any hairdressers I’ve been too. I’m constantly changing my hair and they found a style and colour I’m delighted with, Sophie and Ruth were second to none and thanks to the absolute dote that is Gina for finding the perfect colour that really suits me and the lovely Deirdre for helping me with a style. I throughly recommend this salon if you want to be treated well and look great, as I’ve never felt so relaxed in any salon.
Amazing experience. Gina cut my hair and listened to exactly what I wanted. Throughout the cut she checked was I happy with what she was doing. I asked for a Boho curly blow-dry, and she suggested Ruth do it instead, which was impressive she’d say what someone else was better at.

Ruth took such care with the blow-dry and showed such enthusiasm for her job. Both ladies were incredibly friendly and welcoming. I left feeling great, when usually I dread getting my hair cut. Will definitely be back

I absolutely recommend this place. They were very friendly and understood exactly what I wanted. I’ll definitely be back 😊 Great professionals and I really enjoyed my time there!
Lovely salon. Clean bright and friendly. Delighted with my cut and colour. Gina and her team are so friendly and helpful. I’ll be back.
Very friendly, relaxed salon, where I felt welcome and looked after by all the staff. As well as doing a lovely colour, Gina went out of her way to sort something out for me, that I had mixed up. Very much appreciated! Been here twice now and can recommend.
It was my first time getting a haircut in this salon. Marc did an amazing job! First of all he listened to me and payed attention to what I wanted to have done. After reiterating what I said, I knew we were on the same page! He gave me so much advice and recommendations and showed me how to take care of my hair without damaging them. I just couldn’t be happier! Absolutely a great experience! Also staff there was very welcoming! Thanks! I’ll be back!
Everybody was so helpful. It’s a lovely salon and has a great atmosphere! Could not recommend enough 🤩 Tara did my hair and I couldn’t have dreamed for a better result.
Deidre is a very experienced stylist, full of helpfull straight forward advice about my hair. I got a really good trim which was just what I needed. I will be back ! Such a lovely sincere person . Great to have her in the community. No more long drives for me to get my hair looked after. Great service.
D, Gina and the whole team were so welcoming for my daughters first ever haircuts and my own first hair cut in years! We could not be happier with the whole experience and would not hesitate to recommend! Will definitely be back! Thanks again, Ladies, for the lovely evening and haircuts, the girls were all so delighted with themselves!
Have just had my hair coloured and cut in Ballance. To say I’m thrilled with it would be an understatement. It looks amazing. The staff are wonderful especially Gina and Ruth who took such care and attention with my hair. 5 stars are not enough. Thanks girls.
Gina was brilliant. Gave me loads of advice on how to manage my curly hair. She was both professional and friendly. She spent a good while making sure I knew how to manage my hair. The personal approach and attention made me feel very pampered.
