I don't like Hairdressers. For me going to a hairdresser is wasted time. It should be short (max. 20 min.) and quick. And I don't want to go there more than 2 or 3 times a year. My last hairdresser closed so I looked for a new, good accessible one, near to my work and I found: ICONO. It was easy to get an appointment on the same day. The store is in Mitte, near Hackescher Markt so it's easy to get to.
When I came in I got a really really warm welcome by Friederike, my new hairstylist. At first I had to answer some question. How is my hair-structure, what do I want, what not... something like this. Then Friederike analyzed my hair. Told me about the condition and what is possible. She even made a picture of the skin on my head and explained it to me. I was really surprised because I've never had this before.
After this I got my hair washed. I took a seat at the sink and was really surprised - the chair massaged my back. I got some conditioner in my hair and she combed through it for around 5 minutes. It was like "wow". I mean, if I were a cat, I would purr. I really liked it. The haircut itself was really quick and precise. She showed me everything and asked me if it's all right. At the end she showed me some products which are good for my scalp. She gave me samples, so I can try them before buying. They compile a data card of you. If you come back they know exactly what you like and need.
For me it's one of the best hairdressers in town. 30 or 40 minutes there are like a little wellness trip. The price is okay. 40 Euro for a haircut. If you are looking for an excellent new haircut paired with a little wellness -go to ICONO. read more
