Born and Raised in Winchester Virginia just outside of Washington DC. Virginia is where my career began but I knew early on that I wanted to make the journey to NYC. Not only being a hairstylist but an artist, there has always been a drive to be in the center of creative energy that is New York. Little did I know that journey would take me to working in NYC, VA and LA. Push me into next points of my Career as a Redken Artist and open a world of opportunities. I’m forever grateful for the wondrous life this career has given me.

Aspire to live my life like Leonardo da Vinci, forever and endlessly curious and learning

My specialty or artistry as a Stylist has evolved and is constantly evolving and growing. As such I’ve found it hard to block myself into a singular specialty. I like to look at each person I work with from his/her style, coloring, style and lifestyle to work on creating the best version of their hair form them as best as possible. However with all that said, I am known for my “lived in” low maintenance color and dry cutting techniques in the salon. Essentially creating work that caters to a low maintenance yet still feels glamorous.

“In the Press”

“and for a cut, I recommend going to Trent Matthews, who cut complementary face-framing layers that are just as flattering when I’m wearing my natural waves as when I style my signature bouncy blowout. ”

Testimonials

Shelissa Cook -Trent Matthews Salon NYC

Trent is a true master of his craft! And he is so easy to work with. He has amazing vision that I trust completely. I could never think up on my own the beautiful complex reds he has executed for me! He takes his time and explains the process step by step so there are no surprises. Although the end result somehow always exceeds my expectations!
His cuts are gorgeous - I prefer a low maintenance cut and he always delivers on something that beautifully frames my face, but leaves me with flexibility to wash and air dry with little to no effort. My hair looks healthy, strong and vibrant.
Trent is such an amazing artist. I’m not kidding when I say I would follow him anywhere!

Trent is amazing! Best color and haircut I have ever had. He always executes my ideas even better than I imagine them!
Kasey Mcdonald: Trent Matthews Salon NYC

Have been seeing Trent for 3 years and I have finally found my forever stylist. He is a talented colorist who has mastered the “lived in” color I’m always after, takes care of the health of my hair and inspires me to mix it up every now and then! The laughs and conversation every time I see him are an added bonus. Can’t recommend Trent more highly!
Tanya Danilevich: Trent Matthews Salon NYC

Trent is a master for color! I do a half of highlights. He knows what he does and what to offer. Trent has an amazing way of balancing your desired look with keeping the health of your hair in focus. After Trent, my hair color is always perfect, it lasts twice as long. The way he does my roots allowed my hair to grow out for almost 3 months and still look intentional.Also, I would like to add… best styling I have ever had and such a pleasure to talk to. Plus, Trent smiles, listens, paying attention to every detail and always give suggestions: what’s better for summer, what’s better for autumn, winter. You can trust him no matter what, your hair will say thank you!
I look forward to going back every time. Thank you, Trent! 6 stars to you ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
