Kiro Rodrigues

Kiro Rodrigues is the co-founder of Queer Hawk, Ireland's first LGBTQ+ salon, which provides a welcoming space for clients of all orientations and gender identities. With a background in marketing, Rodrigues conceptualized the salon during the pandemic, inspired by his own experiences as a gay man in traditional barbershops. His vision was to create a space free from the discomfort and discrimination often faced by LGBTQ+ individuals, and under his leadership, Queer Hawk has evolved into a vibrant community hub, combining haircuts with advocacy and art.
