hair and beauty in Southside, Dublin

Welcome to Dublin Beauty Lounge. The hidden gem on Leeson Street, your little happy place in the heart of Dublin and the city’s best-kept secret and quite possibly its most charming escape. Stepping inside feels like visiting your chic best friend's flat — if she were a goddess of glam and art and had her shelves stocked with the latest beauty trends. Think blush tones, golden details, pink chairs, and a touch of sparkle. The vibe is unmistakably girly, effortlessly elegant, and always inviting. Clients often call it their " little happy place" — and with good reason. Suzi’s warm laugh, gentle hands, and genuine care make every visit feel less like an appointment and more like a mini-retreat. And just like any sacred space of sisterhood, what’s shared in the Lounge? Stays in the Lounge. Always. Whether you're sneaking in for a quick gel polish refresh or unwinding after a long day with a custom nail art creation, Dublin Beauty Lounge isn’t just about looking good — it’s about feeling seen. In a city that moves fast, Suzi’s little haven reminds you to pause, breathe, and feel beautiful in every way.

The team:

For seven beautiful years, this boutique beauty salon has been quietly doing what it does best: creating moments of calm, confidence, and care in a world that rarely slows down. And at the heart of it all is Suzi — founder, owner, and the beating heart of the Lounge. With over 17 years of hands-on experience in the nail and beauty world, Suzi doesn’t just “do treatments” — she creates rituals. From sculpted nails to luminous facials, every appointment is a one-on-one experience, meaning it’s just you, Suzi, and that vibrant playlist in the background. No distractions. No rush. Just uninterrupted “me time.”
