Since 1978
Three generations, one chair
Our story in four chapters. Scroll through almost fifty years of cutting, colouring and coffee on the Dorpsstraat.
1978
Willem opens two chairs
On the Dorpsstraat, Willem de Meester opens a small barbershop: two chairs, one basin and a radio that’s always on low. The neighbourhood comes for a sharp cut and stays for the chat.
1992
A salon for the whole family
The shop grows with the neighbourhood. Willem breaks through into the building next door, adds women’s chairs, a hood dryer and the first loyal colour clients. Mums, dads and kids: from now on, everyone is welcome at De Meester.
2005
Marloes takes over the scissors
Daughter Marloes grew up between the hairdryers. After her training and years in Amsterdam salons, she takes over the business — with her father’s craftsmanship and new techniques like balayage and bridal hair.
2024
The third generation joins the team
Today Marloes, Sanne and Tom work together in the renewed salon, and Marloes’ son Jesse is learning the trade. The chairs are newer, the coffee is better — the attention is exactly the same.

What clients say
Stories from the chair
Sanne did my balayage exactly the way I’d pictured it. I’ve had compliments ever since.
Iris · client since 2022
The atmosphere is just right: cosy without rushing, professional without being distant.
Bart · client since 2021
My little boy was terrified of hairdressers until we came here. Now he asks to go.
Daan · dad of Mees (6)
I used to come to Willem and now to Marloes. The same care and attention, only the chairs are newer.
Henk · client since 1986
Booked online on Sunday evening, in the chair by Tuesday morning. And there really is always coffee.
