Coup d’État

Best haircut and color i have had!
Okey, this is expensive, its an investment and luxury to allow yourself once in a while if you want to go crazy!
I’m from Brussels, have had haircuts and colours there at good fashion salons, did the same in Berlin (in a vegan pin-​up hairsalon, veganya.). Berlin was the best until Amsterdam!
Anand did a fabulous job with my hair-​colour! I knew exactly what i wanted (a champagne orange. although im a dark brown-​head). Color went on great, with compliments of the whole team and chef!
Haircut was asymetric with bangs (something ive gad for a year). Its from far the best haircut i gave had.
Anand took the time to cut, hair dry, straighten and recut again until it was perfect.
He knows its scissors and color dosages.
Also, the team was lovely! I was there for 2h30, u can’t expect to bond in 20min, nor to have a good experience if you don’t put a little effort into it.
We spoke English, Dutch and German.
Price includes all services. No extra charges for hair products, balm, wine, coffee, water or whatever else you might want or ask for.
I paid a total of 140e for a complete hair make-​over. I work in fashion and film and i can tell you, they know what they’re doing and are used to high-​end standards! Do yourself a pleasure and go there once:).

Good haircut, terrible colour. If a colourist can’t make your hair bright red with the colours they have in the shop, they shouldn’t tell you otherwise. When I complained, I was told I could come in for some free product and another haircut. When I tried to schedule this (I had to do it through the stylist directly, not the owner) my emails were ignored. Ridiculously expensive for a poor result.

First time in my life that I post a comment
about a hairdresser, but the uniquely bad and insulting experience left me no
choice. Also interesting that my experience matches the one reported by Prosiakowski, which I didn’t know and was a long time ago! Indicates some consistency in this shop. Unless you really have no taste for
yourself and leave it entirely to others to decide how to use your head and
hair in a creative fashion, regardless of what you like or not, I strongly
recommend not visiting Coup d’Etat. After all haircutting is a service
profession (that’s why we pay), and I prefer not to be used as an object of
weird pseudo-​artists. At Coup d’Etat I received the worst haircut relative to
the price ever in my 50 years. Not technically, but in terms or regard (or
rather disregard) for my own taste, it was an utter disaster. I had many bad cuts
I didn’t like in my life but they usually did not cost over 60 Euros. Going
there after I had been unhappy many times over the past 2 years, willing to pay
more for advice and technical ability as well as experience, I encountered a
certain Jordan Matilda (Art Director; no less! at least that’s the card he gave
me), who first made me wait 45 minutes because another customer was late (45
minutes?). So I did, which was my first mistake. Then I described that I would
like his advice (note that I used the word advice and did not ask him to do
whatever he pleases) and what I like and do not like having done with my hair.
He declared in a grandiose fashion that there is a lot of contradiction and
uncertainty in what I said, and that he will give me a classic haircut.
Requesting an explanation he gave a couple wage statements that didn’t mean
anything to me, and I made the second mistake deciding to trust him. An hour
later, while I thought he is still at work but already had a bad feeling, he
suddenly declared that is it, and I almost dropped from the chair. It was the
exact opposite of what I told him I would like or the exact match what I
described I dislike most (short at the sides and long in the front, hanging
into my face.) Apparently it was no contradiction to do the opposite of what I
liked. Upon my request to change it he made minor, irrelevant adjustments and
declared more not to be possible. Surprisingly, more was indeed possible when I
went to another haircutter, desperate as I was, and he fixed it as good as
possible. So the end of the hour more than anything else may have determined
the level of creativity for Mr. Miranda. In hindsight he is simply an
arrogant charlatan, with good technique no doubt, who sensed my uncertainty due
to bad experience and an ongoing illness, and played an expensive game of
messing my hair up in his own creative way. I can easily imagine how his grandiose
manner convinces many people that this must be good. In addition the old
believe if you pay much it must be good works his way as well psychologically (forced
compliance). In any case, be warned!
