Businesses

Hairdresser businesses in Cork

The Central Statistics Office does not publish a business count for hairdressers in Cork at this level, so this page shows none. It publishes business counts at this level only for broad industry sections, which mix hairdressers with other businesses. That is a finding about the published statistics, not about how many hairdressers work here.

Population: 222,526 (Cork city and suburbs, Co Cork). Source: CSO Census 2022, city and suburbs population (data.cso.ie).

Business counts are never compared across countries on this site: each country's statistics agency counts a different set of businesses.

Method

Search terms: a fixed keyword set per service for Ireland, tagged by intent (general, near me, urgent and specific jobs), targeted to Cork with Google Ads location codes, not a text match.

Monthly searches is the average of the last 12 months, summed across the counted keywords. Related keywords are listed but never counted.

Click price is the search-weighted average click price across the counted keywords (sum of each keyword's click price times its monthly searches, divided by total searches), as Google Ads reports the per-keyword prices via DataForSEO.

Year on year compares the last 12 months of counted searches with the 12 months before.

Cost per booked booking is the click price divided by the lead rate times the booking rate. The lead rate is LocaliQ's US share of clicks that become calls or forms for the closest industry (US benchmark); the booking rate is ServiceTitan's share of calls that book, for trades (US/Canada benchmark). Where either rate has no source, the page prints no number.

DataForSEO reports click prices in US$; they convert to EUR at the Federal Reserve H.10 September 2026 average (1 EUR = 1.1505 US$).

The tags “Lowest click price on this page” and “Highest click price on this page” rank the intent groups on this page by click price. They are rankings, not verdicts.
