Hair Cutting
Our expert stylists use the Sassoon ABC approach to create precision cuts tailored to your features and lifestyle. Every haircut includes a consultation to align with your preferences, ensuring a style that balances form and function. Clients receive complimentary fringe trims between appointments.
Hair Colouring
We specialise in custom colour applications using the full Wella range, blending shades to complement your skin tone and cut. A mandatory consultation ensures optimal results, with a 50% deposit required for new clients. Our techniques enhance hair health while delivering vibrant, long-lasting colour.
Hair Conditioning
Essential conditioning treatments are included in every service, with specialist options available from Kevin Murphy and Olaplex. These treatments repair damage, enhance shine, and improve manageability, with homecare products recommended to maintain salon-quality results between visits.
Keratin Treatment
This formaldehyde-free treatment smooths frizzy hair for up to six weeks, aiding daily styling. A pre-treatment consultation is required to assess suitability. The process seals the hair cuticle, reducing volume while preserving natural movement and health.
Wedding Hair
Our bespoke wedding service includes trials, party styling, and on-site options, tailored to your vision. Specialist Ella Godfrey, a finalist in Bridal Hair Awards, provides consultations to create timeless styles. Packages include travel costs and coordination for your special day.

I have been going to this hairdressers for years for my hair colour and cut. Then I moved away and returned to Oxford and was told at the salon that they had a new colour system and I would need to do a 24 hour test. I was told i have to do this if i wanted to remain at their salon and was told to pay 15 for the test which i did. The test patch has to be worn for a couple of days and so i did this. It turned out i was allergic to this and i developed a rash. I contacted Popham and told them; their response was that this has never happened before but this means that i cannot attend their salon
