Nestled on the first floor at 99 Saint Aldate's, within a beautiful old Georgian building, Tao Beauty Salon has been a haven for beauty in central Oxford since 1968. As Oxford's oldest independent beauty salon, their longevity speaks volumes about the quality and care invested in every treatment. The salon's name itself is inspired by an ancient Chinese philosophy centred on happiness and inner peace, a feeling they aim to instil in every client.

They are conveniently located midway between the Town Hall and Christ Church, making it an easy escape during a day of exploring.

Tao Beauty Salon offers an extensive array of treatments, ensuring there's something for everyone seeking relaxation or routine beauty maintenance. From soothing full-body Swedish massages, hot stone massages, and Indian head massages to essential upkeep like waxing (for men and women), manicures with Jessica and Mii Gel polish, and pedicures. They are Dermalogica partners, providing pro-skin facials and back cleanse treatments, and also offer advanced services like Crystal Clear microdermabrasion and Silhouette Dermalift for skin rejuvenation. If you're preparing for a special occasion, consider their eyelash and eyebrow tinting, lash extensions, or Sienna X spray tans – they are noted as one of the only places in Oxford city to offer this. Many clients praise the professional staff and the welcoming atmosphere, often highlighting the skill and attention to detail in every service.

Got my eyebrows waxed yesterday(9.07), didn’t have a proper look at the salon but noticed when I got home that I’ve been burned; today I got breakouts all around the eyebrows( the burned mark from yesterday is better but still present).
