    A visit to this salon is always something I look forward to! Matthew and the team are all really friendly, and properly skilled in terms of hairdressing and colouring, including Matt himself and the lovely James. They have been very Covid aware as well, and as such I’ve always felt really confident in visiting the salon. Plus, their coffee is pretty good too! 😎😎

    I was anxious to get my hair cut first time in the UK. But the staff were very patient and kindly gave me advice. Most importantly, James, the director, had cut my hair exactly in the way I wanted! It was a nice experience. Would definitely come to Matthew again.

    I’ve been using the Matthew Clulee salon for a while now, and I’ve always been very happy with my hairstyle and highlights by James. The salon and team have always made me feel very welcome, and a valued customer. I would highly recommend the salon.

    Update: After two years, I still cannot rate Matt, James, Elia, Fatima and the team highly enough. Always meeting a challenge with creative flair — honestly, a highlight of Oxford. Matthew and the team have been nothing but welcoming from the first second I sat in the chair — accepting and encouraging as I figure out transition. Cannot recommend highly enough as a space to ask questions and get safe, considered support.
