Our Story

Two decades of craft, four salons, and a passion for barbering that started in Morocco in 1993.

Future Style Barbers

Future Style Barbers first opened its doors in Letterkenny, Co Donegal, Ireland in 2007. Founder Said Ben Salem started his profession as a barber at the age of 13 in Morocco in 1993. In 2003 he arrived in Ireland to continue his journey as a barber and offer his expertise to the people of Donegal.

People here were in need of an upmarket, modern barbershop — and since then Said has established multiple salons across the county.

Each store has a dedicated crew trained personally by Said and his senior barbers.

  • Classic to modern haircuts
  • Face masking & facial treatments
  • Beard trimming & shaping
  • Traditional hot towel shaves
