Not just those who love big quiffs and wear petticoats will feel at home in this hair salon.

Anyone in Berlin looking for a haircut that looks like more than a template will find it in this list. Between petticoat nostalgia and rock'n'roll quiffs, this is a gathering of salons where the name alone says it all. At Kaiserschnitt in Friedrichshain, anyone who loves big quiffs and vintage charm will feel right at home. A few streets away, the Ponyclub hides rather inconspicuously behind its curtains in the trendy Kiez. And at Friseur Gute Schnitte Salon Hair Nickel in Prenzlauer Berg, first-class cutting technique meets plenty of humour. Most of these salons are around Prenzlauer Berg, Friedrichshain and Kreuzberg, in other words where Berlin ticks at its quirkiest. Quirky decor included, creative cut guaranteed. Which of these shops best suits your next look?

I like hairdressers where the visit is a little experience and not just routine. For this list, I paid particular attention to where craftsmanship and personality come together, where the decor tells stories and the stylists really take their time. A good cut may well be a little bold, I think, and those are exactly the kinds of places I sought out for you.

The Ponyclub is rather inconspicuously hidden behind its curtains in the trendy Friedrichshain district.

Plenty of humor and first-class haircutting techniques in a stylish ambiance can be found during the best cutting times at the renowned hairdresser in Prenzlauer Berg by Ingo Nickel.

Sixties decor meets the latest haircutting techniques! Old hair dryers, plastic decor, and stylish lamps and chairs create the charm of the shop.

Stepping through the door on Kastanienallee, one immediately notices a difference from other salons.


Hairspray is definitely a must in this salon! Because spiky punk hairstyles and rock'n'roll quiffs are the specialty here.


Schnittstelle has made a really good name for itself in Berlin.


Right on the trendy Kastanienallee, there's a place that revives old East German times: the Vokuhila hair salon.


Headshop is synonymous with creativity in several disciplines: music, fashion, art, and of course, hair!


At Grünton, the name says it all: the salon shines in vibrant green, and the music program is also out of the ordinary.
