English-speaking hairdresser in Amsterdam
Looking for a hairdresser in Amsterdam where you can simply explain what you want in English? This is happening is a hair salon and concept store on the Haarlemmerdijk, a short walk from Amsterdam Centraal. Martijn Garsthagen has run the salon here for nineteen years, and many of our clients are internationals who live and work in the city. The consultation, the cut and the colour: all in English, no Dutch needed.
What we do
Cuts for men and women, colour, highlights with foils, balayage painted by hand, face framing, toners, blow-dries and beard trims. A few examples with our top stylists:
- Ladies: wash, cut & hand dry, € 69.90
- Gents: wash, cut & style, € 69.50
- Balayage, painted by hand, from € 90
- Beard trim, € 21
See all treatments on our price list. Where it says 'from', the final price depends on your hair and the time it takes; we tell you before we start.
