Kids' haircuts in Amsterdam

A children's haircut is €35 and takes half an hour, for under-12s. The same barbers, the same chairs — and the same fade as dad, if that is what he wants.

A fade, scissor work or just a tidy-up — whatever the kid actually wants. Styling and a drink come with it, same as everyone else.

45 min · the regular haircut

From thirteen it is the regular haircut: a quarter of an hour longer, and a word first about what he wants.

A barbershop, not a kids' salon

Porem is a barbershop: no toy cars, no balloons, no cartoon on a screen. What there is instead is a barber who has done this for years and treats your son like the client before him — he asks what he wants first, lets him watch in the mirror, and styles it before he gets out of the chair.

Under-12s get half an hour, no rush. Skin fade, taper, scissor work or just the length off: it is the same work as for adults, on a smaller head. Ask for whoever cut his hair last time — eleven barbers and nine languages between them, so the conversation works even if your kid speaks none of the local one.

Wednesday afternoons and Saturdays are the busiest. On weekdays before three you are usually straight into the chair, and the shop is quieter — which counts for a lot with a child who has not been here before.
