We strive to keep all branches open, however there may be occurrences outside of our control where a branch might need to be temporarily closed. This is due to O’Brien® and its team following government regulations and health advice protocols. Please check our COVID Support page for the latest updates on service availability. If you have an existing booking we recommend keeping that in place (unless COVID circumstances apply) otherwise you may have to wait longer if you reschedule. If O’Brien® have to change your booking, then one of our team will be in touch and rearrange ASAP.

Our team members may also wear a mask and/or disposable gloves and will try to avoid all physical touch.
