About us
Welcome to Plush Hair – Where Great Hair & Good Vibes Come First!
Since opening our doors in 2010, we’ve been dedicated to creating amazing hair in a warm, welcoming space. Founded by Lisa, our salon was built on the belief that every client deserves a truly personal experience. That’s why we’ve always prioritized one-on-one, tailored consultations to ensure your hair gets the care and attention it deserves.
Whether you want a total transformation or just a little refresh, we believe in one-on-one attention, expert advice, and a touch of fun along the way. Because great hair days start with a great salon – and that’s exactly what we are!
What makes us unique? All four of our stylists are fully qualified, bringing over 70 years of combined experience, and that’s just the beginning! There’s so much more that sets us apart. Read on to discover what makes our salon so special…
Tailored Just for You
Your hair is as unique as you are, and we’re all about creating personalized experiences to match. Whether you’re after a subtle refresh or a bold new look, we’ll customize every treatment to suit your individual needs. Because when it comes to hair, one size definitely doesn’t fit all!
Experts in Hair Extensions
As a Great Lengths Gold Salon, we’re pros at adding length, volume, and style with keratin-bonded and tape extensions. Our seamless blends mean no one will know, it’s just you, but with even more gorgeous hair and confidence to match!
Leaders in Hair Innovation
With a history of educating in Keratin Complex and a passion for pushing the boundaries of hair care, we’ve earned recognition for our award-winning Personal Blow Dry System. We’re all about innovation, from our techniques to our carefully curated product range, including Davines, NAK, Color Wow, Keratin Complex, and Great Lengths, so you get the best in hair care, every time!
Elevating Hair Colour
At Plush, we’re proud to be the only salon in Waterford offering Davines Professional Colour , a beautiful, high-performance Italian colour range that delivers rich, tailored results while always respecting the health and integrity of your hair.
Davines is a certified B Corp brand, recognised globally for its commitment to sustainability, ethical sourcing, and creating products that are as kind to the planet as they are to your hair, something that aligns perfectly with our own values.
We use three carefully chosen Davines systems so we can personalise every colour service to you:
Mask – our permanent colour line, perfect for long-lasting, vibrant results and reliable grey coverage, all while keeping your hair feeling nourished and cared for.
The Present Time – an ammonia-free, demi-permanent colour for softer, low-commitment changes. It delivers gorgeous shine and natural-looking tone that fades gently over time.
View – our gloss and glaze system, ideal for refreshing colour, enhancing shine, blending regrowth, or adding subtle dimension without lifting your natural base. Perfect for maintaining your colour between appointments.
Every colour journey at Plush begins with a thoughtful consultation. We take the time to understand your hair history, lifestyle, and goals so we can choose the right system and create a result that feels completely you.
For your comfort and safety, all colour services require a skin test at least 48 hours before your appointment.
Celebrating Excellence
We’re beyond proud to be the reigning Irish Great Lengths Salon of the Year! This prestigious award recognizes our passion, expertise, and commitment to delivering the very best in hair extensions. Pushing boundaries and setting new standards in hair transformations isn’t just what we do, it’s who we are.
Advanced Scalp and Hair Therapy Beautiful hair begins with a healthy foundation. As the only salon in Waterford offering Davines Naturaltech scalp rituals, we deliver tailored, consultation-led treatments designed to restore balance and support long-term hair vitality.
Using advanced scalp analysis and targeted in-salon rituals, enhanced when needed with our Oxygen Scalp Boost, we create personalised plans that nurture from root to tip.

Brands
THE BOND
For example, when you wash your hair or get it wet, the hair shaft expands. When it dries, it contracts. Bonds that do not possess such function will soon begin to shed the extensions and ultimately slide off the natural hair completely because the bond is being stretched with no capacity to contract each time the natural hair expands and contracts. This is a Great Lengths exclusive feature. Because of this exclusive feature of our bond, NO DAMAGE is caused to your own hair and your own hair will grow as normal.
THE TAPE
GL VOLUME
Fast and easy application, thanks to a special thickening technology: this product is made by Great Lengths high quality natural hair which is hand sewn into the lace net and knotted. The GL Volume piece is designed to build confidence in women suffering from hair loss and thinning or with sparse spots around the crown.
The netting gets applied to the client’s natural hair with the use of GL Keratin drops and GL Braid. Undetectable when applied, GL Volume blends into the client’s natural hair leaving the finish looking natural and seamless. Without any damage to the natural hair, we can help our clients achieve a great look and to feel 100% themselves again.
The GL Volume application is extremely fast and easy, in less than 1 hour our client will have a brand new look, that can be further personalized with any kind of styling (brushing, flat iron and styler).
The GL Volume can be worn for 4-6 weeks and then it should be removed and refitted to ensure it sits and attaches correctly to the natural hair. With appropriate care and maintenance it can last up to 8 months; after this period it is possible to regenerate it for 2 times. It is available in 3 different typologies and also customizable upon request.
NEED TO KNOW
It’s customizable. Go straight, stay curly, or anything in between.
PERFECT FOR
Smoother hair or defined curls without the frizz.
