Ireland holidaysThe classic Irish bar, whose hallmarks evoke the qualities of an earlier era, has been in steady decline – but recently its future has started to look a little brighter
There’s more to traditional Irish bars than their vernacular design or their location on almost every street corner and village green in Ireland. Behind their distinctive facades is an elusive character that has barely changed over the centuries: the rustle of the newspaper on a Sunday afternoon, the banter from the bartender or the gentle thud of a perfectly drawn pint of stout on solid, time-smoothed timber.
While summer is all about low-maintenance styles, hair with shape and sharp contours sings a particular siren song in autumn. Case in point is the “cowgirl cut”, a term coined by hair stylist Luke Hersheson to describe his top-requested new season look with its “shoulder-skimming lob-length” and face-framing invisible fringe.
“The cowgirl cut is rough and ready – a little imperfect but beautiful, so that's where the name came from," adds Luke, whose client list includes Victoria Beckham, Sienna Miller and Keira Knightley.
