I have never written a Yelp review before but this experience was great so I just had to! I was in town visiting friends in Berlin and desperately needed a hair cut. I am always super cautious about getting my hair cut as I have thinning hair and a bit of a side cut that many hair stylists can't seem to figure out how to style correctly. I was curious about going short but didn't know how to do that in a way that didn't draw attention to the thinning hair on the top of my head. A friend of mine who used to live in Berlin recommended this place and it seemed like a reputable place so I decided to give it a try.
I originally went in to try for a walk-in appointment but they were booked. The woman at the front desk booked me an appointment for the next day but also offered to be in contact in case of a cancellation that day. When I had my actual appointment, I got Allison as my hair stylist. She was very sweet and personable, and listened to what my ideas and concerns were. She was also honest in her opinions and seemed to know what I was going for. She described a scenario for me where I could go short but keep my volume. When we talked about whether I should color my hair, she didn't push me to add in another service that wasn't necessary and made some good points in terms of staying with my current hair color.
I am very happy with the way it turned out! and throughout the process I had a good conversation with Allison who also gave recommendations for products for thinning hair, etc. She is originally from Ireland and speaks fluent english so if you don't speak German this is a safe bet as well. In terms of price, I live in New York so I'm used to overpriced hair cuts. I paid 42 euros which might seem pricey for Berlin but I think it was worth it.
The others at the salon were also friendly, and they offer coffee, tea, water, etc when you arrive. read more
