Ann-Elise is just fantastic. She really listens and gives great hair advice. She is also super talented and is clearly making the most of her colouring training in Manchester. I feel very lucky to have found a stylist like her . The salon has a lovely atmosphere too.

I had a last minute appointment at Saks this week when I met Sasha for the first time. She could not have been more friendly or made me more at ease as my haircut was long overdue & needed for last mminute holiday. She skilfully cut away 4 inches of waist length hair & I'm left with swishy thicker looking hair once more.

Excellent experience, from booking, adjusting the booking, the consultation, and expertise offered .
Really enjoyed my time at the salon, with Sarah and the team in Barnard Castle.
I now have lovely professionally cut, coloured and blow dried hair.
Sarah took into account the routine of managing my hair, offered great advice on how to handle it, and recommended products.
I’m really happy, and the salon was full of happy customers.
The salon is immaculately clean, stylishly understated, and the music was great.
