About

Hi, I'm Mariska

I bring a wealth of experience and passion for hair to my salon in the heart of Haarlem. After developing my skills at high-end salons such as Rob Peetoom and Mogeen, I am thrilled to have realized my dream of starting my own salon.

At the core of my salon is the belief that every customer deserves my time and attention. That's why I'm specialized in dry hair cutting, so I can best see and work with each individual's unique waves, curls, and straight hair.

My true power lies in my all-round approach and warm welcome to everyone. I am excited to create a personalized look that showcases your natural beauty and enhances your personality.

Thomas Kortekaas is a talented hair stylist who rents chairs three days a week at our salon. Bookings can be made directly through Thomas his own instagram account @thomaskortekaas

Hi. I'm Leo

Hello, my name is Leo. I am very happy to work with Mariska Pelsmaeker to share with her brilliant sense on hair, and her warm, humble approaches.

My hairdressing work focuses on dry cutting and hairstyling. To me, hair is inseparable aspect of the body, self and its image, therefore I like to work for each client and each hair type with personalized approach.

I work professionally as a visual artist and as a hairdresser, both works complement to each other. With formal background in sculpture and craft, I translate my understanding of material character, forms and proportion into my hairdressing approach. Next to it, I explore hair moods and looks that draws inspirations from my personal interest to jazz, clothes - which I often refer to Miuccia Prada’s works, brutalist architecture, and interior.
