In addition to his skills on the ice, Koen is also known for his long locks. During De 538 Morning show with Wietze and Klaas his coupe was also mentioned again. “I really want to cut my hair at a suitable time and then donate it to the Haarwensen Foundation. This month, after the Olympics, seems like the perfect moment to me,” says Koen. He makes it even more exciting, because for every 1000 euros that is donated, the skater cuts one centimeter of his hair. In the end they hope 53 .8 centimeters of hair from his head, which would mean that an amount of 53,800 euros will be collected.You can donate via this link.
To show how much hair they have to deal with here, Koen throws his hair loose. Wietze and Klaas react with amazement: “It is really not normal what comes out of that bun” and “Can you just hang out the window and then you can climb in! A kind of Rapunzel.”
Koen does not just let the scissors put in his hair. He has this done by someone he trusts through and through, namely his girlfriend Jutta. She was shocked by this news, but now she wants to cut his hair with all her love after returning from Beijng.
