I find SitStil on Drury Street brilliant! I've never come out of there unhappy. They don't run a production line service, all of their stylists listen to what you want and they really take the time to make sure you're getting the best hair colour and cut you want!

I always feel really well looked after there.

It's in Dublin city centre, parallell to George's Street, the back entrance to the George's Street Arcade is on Drury Street

They have a website here which I think has the price list on it, I can't remember how much they are off the top of my head (no pun intended )

I'm a natural blonde, very, very fair hair, I've gotten highlights (well low lights really) to darken it, was quite happy with them, but then decided to go back to natural colour.

However, I got an all over tint put in yesterday, a honey blonde, just to tone down my hair colour a bit, I had two stylists discussing what colours would be best for my hair and my colouring etc. I'm so pleased with the result as I've never done anything more than highlights. So to know that they weren't being rash or just agreeing with what I wanted was nice.

Plus they do free fringe trims which are great for just tidying up my hair cut!

I also am an natural blonde but have darkened over the years... I look ridiculous with dark hair and I love having really blonde hair, not platnuim white just a lovely bright blonde...

I am never happy with my hair after a week of leaving the hair dressers, it always seems to be horrible...

Are they hard to get an appointment with?

I'm in the same boat, naturally blonde but it's a dark 'dirty' blonde. I love being bright blonde and get highlights every 3 months or so. I go to Toni and Guy on Clarendon street and I really like the colour my hair is now.
Your best bet is to call in to a salon, bring the picture you posted above and ask what's the best way to go about it, a lot will depend on your hair colour now and the condition your hair is in.

I love being bright blonde but it is such hard work to maintain!

do you get full head highlights or an all over colour...

I know I love haveing bright blonde hair but the maintanence is hard and esp that I am a full time student...

The girl in that picture has a full colour. They are really difficult to upkeep especially for blondes. Why don't you start looking through magazines and cut out a photo and bring it with you. The colour sort of looks like jessica simpsons colour - she is always in magazines!

I haven't found them hard to make an appointment with, but I'm usually not too restricted with times etc. I've found Tina really, really good and helpful, she's done my hair the last three or four times and I couldn't have been happier!

Niamho!

well John Adam in Cleary's did my highlights when i was Blond and they did them Too bright. i can only imagine if you specifically ask for really bright highlights...
