About Richard: Experience & Inspiration

I’m Richard, a licensed hairstylist since 1991 with industry experience dating back to 1988. I opened Cuts & Curls in 1996, inspired by the relaxed, personal vibe of a classic barbershop I visited during my travels in Florida. My philosophy is simple: clean, wearable cuts that suit your lifestyle and are easy to maintain. Whether you want a classic business look or a modern style, you are in safe hands.

An English-Speaking Salon

Having lived abroad myself, I understand the challenges of settling into a new country. That’s why I’ve created a space where you can relax, speak your own language, and leave looking your best.

  • Language: I speak fluent English, Dutch, and German.

  • Focus: You’ll always be in the chair with just me. No students, no assistants, no distractions.

  • Convenience: Easy online booking in English. No walk-ins means no waiting times and no crowded salon.

Good to Know

  • Men Only: My services are exclusively for men.

  • Payment: Card payments only (Debit/Credit). Cash is not accepted.

  • Arrival: Please come alone to your appointment to maintain the calm atmosphere.

  • Hair Type: Do you have very long hair, heavy curls, or hair that is tangled/matted? Please contact me before booking. I may need to schedule extra time to give your hair the attention it needs.

Meet Loki

My rescue dog, Loki, is the salon’s resident mascot. He is friendly, but may greet you with a bark when you enter. He settles down quickly— thanks for your patience as he gets used to new faces!
