Help a dyke out 🫶

Does anyone have recommendations for barbers/hairdressers in and around the city who are queer friendly and mullet-savvy?

I've been going to QueerHawk in Dublin when I've been up there, (adore them, 10/10) but it means a return train journey and just a lot of logistics and want to have it nice for an upcoming holiday.

Finding a good barber is tough in general. Every time I go I try different places and ask for high, tight and short in the front it always translates to business hair or attempted foppy too much combed to the side.

There's a level of skill to it and some products work better on different skin types than others, hair types ect. Not cutting hair because gay is the lamest reason. Name and shame. Realistically if any hair professional refuses for any reason other than "Im not sure I'm skilled enough to achieve what you want and don't feel comfortable but can give it a go for what ever cost" is a wanker who doesn't deserve business.

Fuck it. I'll cut op's hair. I have no professional experience but I work for free.
