My name is Jacinta Callaghan and I look forward to meeting you in my salon, art gallery or here online where you can learn more about me and who I am and the creative ways I fill my life. As a child I was always interested in doing anything creative with my hands. I loved to knit, sew, crochet, paint, sketch, decorate and all types of hairdressing. I aspired to become a hairdresser from a young age, imagining my mother’s mop was a head of hair and would spend ages cutting it, curling and styling it... much to my mother’s amusement!Whilst at primary school I was encouraged in my love of art and creativity by a great teacher, she helped me to develop my artistic and creative skill at a young age and her interest and kindness gave me a feeling of self-importance and belief in myself and my abilities. The passion for all things creative and artistic is still with me today and I have turned my love of working with my hands into my two professions of hairdresser and artist. It seemed natural to me to start my own hairdressing business at the mere age of 20. I had trained at a young age in a Peter Mark Salon in Dublin and also worked at Jon Paul in Derry. So in 1980, having gained experience working in salons, I set up my own salon on Pump Street, Kerrykeel, a quaint seaside village in County Donegal. As Jacinta’s Hairdressers celebrates 40 years in business, I felt it was time to add my art studio to the same premises and there you will now find, Jacinta Callaghan Art Gallery.
Delighted with Mug and recipitent happy with gift and knows the lighthouse well . Thank you .
Jacinta has a charming & original gift selection. A friend bought me one of her gorgeous beach art print cushions as a present. I have the cushion on my bed When I get in my bed and lay down my head I drop off to dreamland. Highly recommended. Five stars.
Beautiful gifts for Christmas 😊 great quality with a lovely finish. And thank you so much for the keyring! Mammy loved it. Will reorder next year.
A great salon to have your hair done in. Jacinta is excellent at her trade and her many years of experience from having worked with the best before setting up on her own, ensures you are in the most capable of hands, be it for a cut, colour, restyles or even just a wash and dry, you will come out looking fantastic.
She constantly undertakes new courses so she is always up to date with current trends. So miss not getting in during Lockdown...but hopefully soon.
Jacinta is a true professional. Always reliable, attentive and patient even with the most nervous clients. She takes great pride in the work she does and ensures that the client is always informed at every stage of a colour or cut. Her knowledge of colour application and cutting is excellent. I highly recommend Jacinta’s Hairdressers and I cannot wait to return to this exceptional salon.
Excellent service, always lovely to deal with. Beautiful displays of her great work in the hair salon. Looking forward to be back when lockdown is over
I came across Jacintas art on Facebook and I loved her creations. I got a gift for a cousin for Christmas. It was perfect and my cousin loved her gift. It was the fanad lighthouse chopping board. Jacinta was lovely I'd highly recommend.
