About Us

I created the brand 16a in December 2018, from the garage alongside my parents house. I have always been very artistic and creatively driven throughout my life. Starting fresh in January 2019 I set up my own business and took the leap. I put a bit of savings into the garage of my parents home and set up there, this is where the name came to mind as my house is number 16. I worked there for a short while before moving onto my first shop on Ballinlough Road in Cork. I worked there for over two years and that’s where the idea of chair rental came to mind. One soon became three before leaving Ballinlough. We are currently located on Evergreen Street nearer Cork City in a unit 5 times the size, where we have 7 top quality barbers working full time on an appointment only basis. We moved here over lockdown and are constantly growing the past 6 years. We hope to see you in store soon. 

Jordan, 16a.
