I usually get my hair coloured & cut by Nikki, who is so lovely & brill with my hair, but she as she was already busy today, so I booked in with Stacey instead. Stacey was lovely to chat to, really friendly & was very particular about following what I usually have done by Nikki. Really pleased with my cut & colour today & it's great to know there are two stylists I can book in with now with complete confidence! Thanks ladies!

Stacey from Saks Chester did a fantastic job of my hair cut. I was so tired of my drab and scraggly hair but Stacey has cut it into a fantastic bob and it's made me feel so much better! Hairdressers at Saks are always great, never pushy, but help you see what's best for your hair and face shape. Thank you.

I was recommended this salon by a couple of my friends a few years back and I have gone there ever since even had them to do my hair on my wedding day (many thanks to Annalee and Nicky - you did a great job)! The staff are fantastic - they are so friendly and knowledgeable - Jon always gives me great advise on what do you when I want to change my style etc. I have since gone on to recommend this salon to others.

My only grip is the price but I suppose you get what you pay for - I never leave the salon feeling disappointed

I've been going to Sak's Chester for several years and can only say good things about the salon. I usually see Stacey or Nicky and they are both brilliant hairdressers. Very friendly atmosphere and the receptionist Gail is lovely too. Considering the salon is in Chester their prices are very reasonable. I would definitely recommend a visit to them if you are looking for a new hairdresser.

Haircut by Calvin. Thursday 19 January. Cut my hair exactly as asked. Very professional, courteous and chatty. Very satisfied with service and cut. £30 for a gents cut seems quite expensive, but no complaints on the finished results.

I booked an appointment at Saks a few weeks ago because I hated the colour of my hair and wanted to feel confident again!
I was a customer at Saks about 6 years ago and to be honest I've never really liked the colour of my hair since I stopped going there hence the decision to go back!
I had my hair done today by Calvin, he was brilliant and friendly! I had a complete new look! Love the colour & cut! Looking forward to my next visit in March! Thanks Calvin and enjoy the awards in London ????????

Been for my first appointment at Saks today. All staff lovely, very attentive and looked after me well. My appointment was with Nikki and we had a thorough chat about colours (as my hair was a bit of a mess & very damaged) & she gave me great advice on it. My colour has turned out brill and a lovely new style to boot. Due to treatments I had my hair feels and looks in so much better condition. Really impressed would recommend to anyone.

I was advised what was best to do with my colour as I used to red on it, it turned out great. The hairdresser was very friendly and chatty.
The girl washing my hair was very nice too although she panicked a bit taking the colour off as it went all over my neck.
Pricewise is about the same as town hairdressers.
