Conor McAnally goes to Jackie's Castle for a haircut and beard trim.
Gent’s hairdresser Jackie Farrell from Deanstown Green in Finglas was one of the first women in Dublin to specialise in hair styling for men.
The award-winning stylist learned a great deal about the profession from Tom Ward, manager of the Como hair salon where she once worked.
Six years ago Jackie Farrell opened her own salon Jackie’s Castle in Lower Abbey Street, Dublin.
Keen to show that men are not averse to shampoo and styling, Conor McAnally drops into the salon for some expert male grooming courtesy of Jackie Farrell.
‘Youngline’ was a once weekly, half-hour magazine show for younger viewers.
