Why We Love Glass Hair at Yourells Salons in Galway
If you’ve been scrolling through Instagram or TikTok recently, you may have noticed ultra-smooth, mirror-like hair that seems to glow with its own light. This is the glass hair trend, a style designed to give your locks a sleek, polished finish with incredible shine - which is just like glass.
At Yourells in Moycullen and Oranmore, our stylists specialise in creating this stunning look using premium Wella and Kérastase products to keep your hair healthy, vibrant, and glossy.

What is Glass Hair?
Glass hair is all about achieving perfectly smooth, reflective hair that looks and feels polished. Originally popularised on sharp, blunt bobs, this high-shine trend can now be customised for any hair type or length. Whether you have long layers, a chic lob or a shorter style, glass hair adds a modern, ultra-glamorous finish. Its smooth, frizz-free texture reflects light beautifully, making your hair appear healthier and more radiant.
Key Features of Glass Hair
• Mirror-like shine: Each strand is polished to catch the light, giving your hair an enviable reflective finish.
• Super-smooth, silky texture: Frizz and flyaways are eliminated for a sleek, liquid-like appearance.
• Precision ends: Sharp, clean lines enhance the sophistication of the style, whether you prefer a bob, lob, or long layers.
• Healthy hair: Glass hair relies on strong, nourished hair. Using Wella and Kérastase treatments, we hydrate, repair, and protect your locks while enhancing shine.
Achieving the Look at Yourells
To create the glass hair effect, we combine precision cutting, expert blow-drying and professional conditioning treatments to smooth the hair's cuticle while adding gloss.
We finish with products designed to ensure your hair looks flawless and glassy from every angle. For added impact, our colourists can also enhance your look with bespoke highlights, balayage or full-head colour, giving your hair depth, dimension and radiance.

Maintain Your Glass Hair
Healthy hair is essential for maintaining a glass-like finish. At Yourells, we offer a range of in-salon treatments with Wella and Kérastase, designed to strengthen, repair, and protect your hair from heat styling and environmental stressors.
