    Not trying to spam or anything lads but my usual barber in Killarney is after starting up his own studio where Busy-Bees used to be in town.

    It's called Xclusiv and he's a brilliant barber, was in today got a great job done so I'd highly recommend it

    Good to see a proper barbershop in the town too because I've always found Killarney on selection

    Regretfully the terms of the lease are from 1st April to 31st October and that is due to the nature of the building. :(

    We will be back again next spring :D

    Between the Chinese on new street and chapel lane (Where subway is) there is a door on a corner. I think there was/is a kids clothes shop downstairs. It's across from gamestop.

    He was up in Sean taaffes. About 14 squid for a hair cut, good for the quality like. There are some hairdressers in town that dont have a clue or that seem to be unable to use watches as your always waiting for hours.

    Twas €15 the last day for me but I genuinely don't mind paying for it - he had two people waiting after me and he still took a good bit of time to make sure he was doing what I asked for.

    I like to get my haircut in a place where it's not a case of "Snip - Snip - NEXT!!!" and you end up with a haircut that's grand - but it's not exactly what you asked for y'know!

    I'd highly recommend it anyway - it's about time Killarney had a proper barber tbh

    yea...but Eamon could talk for Ireland!! Needs to concentrate on the haircut..less on the football!! Scalped me one day....came out looking looking like Skinhead!! Wouldn't mind...but Skinheads in Killarney are a rare breed!!

    Thats what I find about Barbers in general....they get complacent after they get to know you - jus any ol cut with do!! That is why I move around!!

    Julies always make a 'damn fine cup of coffee' !! And always have channel 0201 on the Sky Box.. Classic Rock!! Don't mind waiting for a haircut while I can listen to Smoke on the Water!! And read good mags on Tattoos!

    I haven't been, but my sister was raving about it after she was. I'd imagine its pretty much like any other Eddie Rockets if you have been in any of them.

    If not, they're a step up from most other burger places in town.

    Hi all,

    firstly im new to this site so id like to introduce myself, my name is Donie.

    Just looking into getting some work done in the garden, thinking of possibly putting down a deck on the patio, I came across this company, www.backyardbydesign.ie who are based in Killarney. Just wondering if anyone has heard of or dealt with them before and would they be worth contacting?

    Thanks

    It was TG4 last nights and the programme dealt with bullying and the murder which you mentioned was used as an example of extreme bullying by a woman

    Name of the programme was Idir Mna
