Barber Near Kalverstraat, Amsterdam

Elvira4 June 20261 min read

Shopping on Kalverstraat and need a haircut? Prime Barbershop is a four-minute walk away on Nieuwendijk, open daily 10:00–21:00.

Kalverstraat is the busiest shopping street in the Netherlands, running from Dam Square down to Muntplein. What it doesn't have is a good, unhurried barbershop — which is why a lot of our clients walk the four minutes over from Kalverstraat to Prime Barbershop, Nieuwendijk 85.

Getting here from Kalverstraat

From anywhere on Kalverstraat, walk north to Dam Square, cross it, and continue onto Nieuwendijk. We're at number 85. Four minutes at the top of the street, seven from the Muntplein end. All flat, all pedestrianised.

Why it's worth the short walk

Kalverstraat is designed for volume — crowds, chains, queues. Nieuwendijk one street over is calmer, and inside the shop it's calmer still. Every appointment includes a real consultation before the clippers come out, and a finish check before you leave the chair.

- Men's Haircut / Fade Haircut — from €40 (40 min) - Scissor Cut — €45 - Haircut & Beard Trim — €49.99 - Beard Trim — €25 - Haircut & Beard Trim + Wash — €60

Flat prices, published upfront. No experience tiers, no add-ons at the till.

Open when you're actually shopping

We're open daily 10:00–21:00, including Sundays — the same hours the shops keep, plus a few more at the end of the day. Walk in whenever there's a gap, or book on Fresha if you'd rather not wait.
