I'm terribly cheap-- as an American, the prices here still simply shock me at times-- but not so much when it comes to my hair. It's fairly long now and I need a haircut, but I am scared to go to someone new. Can anyone recommend a really good salon? Remember the 'I'm terribly cheap' comment... less than €75 is better if possible.
Thanks,
Rebecca

Hey Rebecca,
I can highly recommend "George" at Vidal Sassoon - Frankfurt ... he's great, a little too precise (of course, a very good thing), so book a good 2 hours off.
I'll PM you with his details!

I'll be moving to the Frankfurt area soon, and was just wondering if George is still a good recommendation?
Best,

I don't know but as I mentioned in the
Mens haircuts thread, I went to Stefan who is a trainee at VS in FFM. 35€ gets you a meticulous haircut and I was very happy with the results.
At VS the cost for a normal haircut it is 77€, so ask for a trainee!

Thanks! It looks like Sassoon is the place to go in Frankfurt,

Hi, could someone perhaps give me some leads as to where you can get a good haircut ( does not have to be an English speaking hairdresser), the only thing I have seen on TT regarding haircuts in FFM was for some guy at
Toni & Guy... is he still "the shit" when it comes to haircutting?
Got a haircut today in
Westend, I will have to use my flattening iron a lot but I have had worse...

I cannot recommend any of them. After having many a bad haircut in Frankfurt I have decided to keep my hair straight and long with just a few layers so that they cannot really do much wrong with it
Sorry not what you want to hear I know

I got a place in
Sachsenhausen called Eva Mandela on the colesium near the river and they are great with my hair I usually get a wash cut (layered) and straigten and it costs €38 I have never had a bad experience from them yet and they are friendly. There is only 1 person that speaks English but it hasn't affected me.

I recently got a haircut at a salon called Wachs & Wachs & Zians in
Westend and I really like it. They aren't cheap, but I believe they are the only Aveda salon in Frankfurt and I love Aveda products. It cost me 56 euros for a haircut and I am more than satisfied (plus, the people there are amazingly nice and the atmosphere is great). If you want a haircut from one of the owners, it will cost you about 80 euros and usually it takes a month to get an appointment- but they've all won awards, etc... so they must be good.
Good luck!

I decided that my present cut is terrible ( I am in the process of looking for work and I feel that my hairstyle at the moment is not very "professional" and the flattening iron excerise does not help either, looks a bit too " party", I really hope that I will be satisfied after my visit to w&w & z this Saturday morning. Otherwise I have no hair left and I guess that is one way to solve my current styling issues...

Good luck tomorrow! I also went to w&w&z to fix a bad haircut. I was very specific about what I didn't like and what I wanted- and I'm totally satisfied now. Please let me know how it turns out!
Take care

a good and cheap alternative is Wella , in Darmstadt. It is free of charge. The problem is that you can't easily get an appointment. They organise seminars and thye need models sometimes. All my family goes there...

but not me , my hair is too short in their opinion and they do not need me !

I have been at "vidal sassoon" last Saturday and can highly recommend it, I got a very nice "Short-Hair-Cut"
Try HeadlinesEppsteiner Str 30 in FFM 069 725806, the owner is Mary Ann who is British.

Anyone have a good recommendation for an English speaking hairdresser in Ffm? Would prefer close to city center but could travel out a bit. Looking for someone to cut female and possibly male. No one extremely expensive...
THANKS!

I highly recommend Isabel at KP Ochs in the Zeil Galerie. Cost is about 45€ and she really takes her time to do what you want and works with you on long term goals. She's great!

I usually go to Mode's Hair in Nordwestzentrum. They are quite good value for money. It usually costs around 40 euros and they (almost) always do a great job. Haven't had any real bad experience with them. Most of them don't speak English so I usually alternate between broken German and sign language. The treatment is quite friendly and the atmosphere quite relaxed. You usually need to wait for an hour to get in, but it's not a problem as it's in a really nice mall so I usually book when I get there, do a bit of shopping, and then get in.
ps. They have great hair products (their own brand, packaging text in English) and I highly recommend the one that enhances volume. It's just great for straight hair!

Hi Everyone,
I know people have already brought up English-speaking hairdressers but I was too confused with all of the replies!
My German is basic at best and I dont feel confident enough to have to explain what i want done in Deutsch, so I definately need an english-speaker for both a cut and highlights!
Does anyone know a relatively CHEAP english-speaking hairdresser in Frankfurt they could recommend?
Cheers,
Kylie
