Hermans has been on Dublin’s Grafton Street since 1971, founded by Herman Koster.

Serving men and women, Hermans is a bright and airy salon that overlooks Grafton Street. It’s an ideal spot in town to escape the hustle and bustle whilst getting a relaxing blowdry.

Hermans have stayed at the forefront of hair styling for decades, keeping up to date on the latest haircare techniques. Their ongoing team training results in the Hermans team’s extensive knowledge of the latest products and hairstyles.

Hermans hair stylists were esteemed among the acting and musical stars in the 1970’s with big names like Phil Lynott passing through its doors – Thin Lizzy even launched “Whiskey in the Jar” here. Hermans’ original logo was also designed by Jim Fitzpatrick, the artist who created the iconic Che Guevara image.

The salon was famous at the time for being the first salon to get an automated hair washing station, or “hairdressing robot”. They continue this forward-thinking mindset today with their expertise in organic hair colour – Natulique. Hermans believe in the importance of providing clients with an organic option.

The highly regarded company is now owned and managed by Herman’s children, Greg, Zoe and Karen who have continued their father’s business and legacy.

World champion barbers have also been brought into the country as guests of Hermans on numerous occasions to show the latest and best barbering techniques at special demonstrations.
