JOSETTE, for hair & (medically approved) pedicures (Nederlandse review onder aan txt)…read more Josette is a marvellous hair dresser/ stylist specialised in both black & European hair. She will take her time to advise and help you get the desired effect. If you ask for something that's not good for the (current) condition of your hair, or a style that will look hideous on you; she's not afraid to warn you and help look for something that will truly make you look beautiful! Part of the salon is dedicated to pedicures. Next to being a hairdresser Josette is also a pedicure specialist/nail technician, authorised to do medically approved pedicures and member of ProVoet (trade organisation). At a visit you will notice that people who visit, have been doing so for years. And are willing to travel for it. There are regulars who travel over 2 hours to get their hair done here. When I started coming I lived in Groningen JOSETTE Josette is binnen een selecte groep mensen reeds een begrip. Ze volgde in Venezuela haar opleiding tot kapster, voor Europees en black hair. Daarnaast heeft zij verschillende vervolgopleidingen en specialisaties gevolgd. Sinds 2009 is zij ook gediplomeerd medisch pedicure en aangesloten bij ProVoet.

My husband was hesitant to go here, because he felt like white Dutch people don't go to kapsalons…read more He thought he would be shunned and rejected because he wasn't part of the kapsalon ethnic community. Thanks to the previous (white guy) reviewer, he was willing to give them a try, and was glad he did. You don't need an appointment to get a haircut, you can just walk in any time. The price is great, 12 euros for a men's cut, which is cheaper than the local hairdressing school which charges 16 euros for a haircut done by a student. They're quick here, just snip-snip, a cup of tea, and you're done. And best of all the owner is super welcoming and nice. My husband didn't feel shunned at all. The downsides are that the decor is a bit run-down, but also a bit quirky. There are lots of religious posters on the walls interspersed with 'sexy hairdresser' posters consisting of fully-clothed pretty women making kissy faces at the camera. It's at least a bit of a unique cultural experience in that respect. If all you want is a fast haircut without having to plan ahead and make appointments, then this is a great place to go. If you need hipster points for drinking scotch while getting your haircut by a man with a handlebar mustache, you're better off going to a fancy expensive place in the center of town.
