Cork farmer goes back to roots with stint in Dublin hair salon

Forget handbags, this is hairdryers at dawn. Itâs what happens when a hardworking dairy farmer from Mitchelstown in Cork goes head to finely-coiffed head with two hair salon owners and some bad book-keeping in the Dublin suburbs. And itâs coming to a TV screen near you.
âOn one of the mornings I found myself treating a lame cow at milking time cleaning out her hoof a few hours later I was in Tallaght putting shellac nails on a woman,â laughs star of the show and the âfarmer in chargeâ, Maurice Walsh, who was spotted by researchers on the website of dairy farming equipment company Dairy Master. âI know the art of a good cow but Iâve no idea about how to judge a haircut,â he says during the show.
