Get a cut that looks good every day, not just when you leave the chair. Your appointment starts with a focused consultation to learn how your hair behaves and what you need from it. We craft a precise shape that suits your features and texture, then finish with a polished blow-dry for lasting movement, shine and control. Clear styling guidance helps you recreate the finish at home.

What's Included
A focused, end-to-end service designed around you.
- Personal consultation covering goals, face shape, texture and lifestyle.
- Cleanse and preparation to optimise the cut and finish.

Who It's For
Perfect for anyone who wants a tailored, wearable cut with a professional finish. Whether you prefer low maintenance, classic polish or something fashion led, the cut is shaped to suit your look and routine.
Suitable for straight, wavy, curly or coily hair, and welcoming to clients of all genders seeking a feminine or soft aesthetic. If you are growing out colour, managing greys or rebuilding strength, the shape is planned to support your hair goals.
Duration & Appointment Timing
Allow around 60 minutes. This gives time for consultation, a considered cut and a complete blow-dry finish.
For very thick or long hair, or a major restyle, please mention it when booking so we can allow extra time. Bring reference photos if helpful. Arrive as you normally wear your hair; we will cleanse and prep as part of the service.
Aftercare & Maintenance
To keep the shape fresh, rebook every 6 to 10 weeks depending on your style and growth. Use heat protection when styling.
Rough-dry to about 80 percent, then polish with a brush for smoothness or lift at the roots for volume. We will recommend simple steps and products that fit your routine.

I always leave this place feeling fantastic and so well looked after! Anyone that gets highlights done knows that this means spending a number of hours in a salon. It makes such a difference when it’s somewhere you enjoy being! Thank you to the team for creating such a lovely relaxing environment. Thank you of course to James for always taking such good care of my hair!

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!

Superb haircut by Matthew, the salon's owner — I couldn’t be happier! Truly one of the best haircuts I’ve ever had. Matthew has the magic touch: professional, friendly, and clearly passionate about what he does. From start to finish, the whole experience was relaxed, uplifting, and fun. I’m already looking forward to my next visit. Thank you, Matthew — highly recommended!

Matthew did a beautiful cut for me, I’ve had loads complements as it’s quite different from my usual. Both me and my sister love coming to see Matthew, he’s so welcoming and a lovely person which makes you feel at home in the salon. I really appreciate the sustainable products and practice's, as this is always something I look for with my life choices.

I’ve been getting my hair done at Matthew Clulee’s for ten years and would warmly recommend this salon to anyone. You’re guaranteed a stylish haircut and finish, there’s expert advice if you want it, excellent customer service, and a warm welcome from all the staff. Matt is equally brilliant with my fussy demands and with the quieter needs of my 85-year-old mother. The prices are great, too, and the central location is a real plus. All round, a great experience :)
