Loved having hair styled at Saks. Ella was delightful , listened to my ideas and took great care when cutting. I have very difficult fine hair that doesn't style easily.

I haven’t had my hair cut for far too long. Elle was excellent and made me feel confident about what would work for my hair. The cur is exactly what we agreed. I’m very happy with it and delighted to find someone that I will return to from now on.

Not being from the area, I did an internet search and found Saks nearby where we were staying. The GPS sent me in the wrong direction but the salon graciously agreed to wait the 10 minutes delay. I was fortunate to have Simon the owner in the shop that day and he did a very good job cutting my hair in the style I wanted. The lively and interesting conversation came at no extra charge! Thank you!

A great salon. Welcoming, determine what you are looking for, and issue advice as appropriate. Ann-Elise is great at cutting and styling my hair to get maximum body. I have thinning hair and so this important to me. Always feel top notch when leaving the salon!

It is always a pleasure to return to SAKS Barnard Castle for my appointments with the knowledge that I am going to be greeted by courteous and friendly staff and above all to feel confident that Andrew my stylist for many years is not only friendly and respectful, but that he knows my hair as well as I do, listens to my thoughts and requests and works with skill confidence and professionalism to achieve a perfect outcome at the end of each visit together with a very happy client.
Thanks Andy see you again soon.
