More information
What's Included
Everything you need for a considered cut and refined finish.
- Personal consultation to define your goals, maintenance time and hair history.
- Assessment of texture, density, growth patterns and face shape.
- Precision cut using techniques suited to straight, wavy, curly or coily hair.
- Refined finish with blow-dry, diffuse or natural styling, plus product selection.
- Styling coaching for your at-home routine, brushes and tools.
- Maintenance plan with a suggested return window and options for future changes.
Who It's For
This service suits anyone who wants a personalised cut that supports their lifestyle, from low maintenance to styled looks. It is ideal for all genders, including non binary clients, and for all hair textures and densities.
Expect balanced shape, movement and control that lasts between appointments, whether you prefer classic refinement or something more fashion led, a subtle refresh or a complete restyle.
Duration & Appointment Timing
Allow 60 minutes for consultation, cut and finish. This timeframe ensures we agree your plan, create the shape and refine the result.
If you are planning a major change or have very long, dense or highly textured hair, you may need extra time. Note this when booking so we can allow enough time.
Arrive with hair down, detangled and in its natural state if practical. Bring inspiration photos if you wish.
Aftercare & Maintenance
We will show you how to recreate the finish at home with simple steps. Use heat protection when styling. Rough-dry to around 80 percent then refine with a brush; for curls, apply leave-in, diffuse on low or air-dry, then gently soften the cast.
Typical maintenance: short and structured 4-6 weeks, mid-length 6-10 weeks, longer or layered and curly 8-12 weeks. Your ideal interval depends on growth and preference and will be agreed in your plan.
We will recommend products and tools that suit your texture and routine, and suggest a pathway for future cuts or changes.

Delighted with my experience at Mathew Clulee today. Mathew took time to listen to what I wanted and really showed me how to achieve the look I wanted once I was doing it myself. My hair has never looked or felt as good as it did after Mathew cut it today. A really enjoyable experience. I shall certainly return.

I had a curly haircut with Matthew after having Brazilian keratin treatments for a year, Matthew worked his magic and managed to bring my curls back to life. I usually leave the hairdresser in tears, but this time they were tears of joy. Matthew is incredibly skilled, highly knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about what he does. He took the time to explain every step of the process, making me feel cared for and involved throughout. I couldn’t be happier with the result and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a talented and attentive curly hair specialist.

A really professional and pristine place! 100% recommend, the staff are not only just lovely but you can tell they enjoy what they do. I used to dislike going to get my hair done as I found some hair dressers are a-bit scissor happy, but here is the absolute opposite- communication throughout and exactly what I wanted. Special mention to Elia- He slays everytime he does my hair and I love our chats!

Wish I could give this business 10 stars - hands down one of the best haircuts I’ve had. I have pretty thick hair and usually find hairdressers don’t know how to cut it, but Matthew is clearly extremely knowledgeable in cutting hair and knew exactly what I needed! He listened to exactly what I wanted in the consultation and made it look even better. Thank you so much and I might have to come to Oxford again just for a haircut!
