Very unhappy lady was very rushed I understood but it wasn’t a nice experience. Quite rough on hair wash make up ran and knew I was going straight to a wedding no mention of temperature. I was told as a new client I would pay half price but I didn’t. Hardly anything cut off, no attention to detail and the fringe was not even done that we’d discussed. I’d asked for a wave with straighteners but she curled with tongs very unhappy experience. The lady was on her own not ideal but I wouldn’t go back

Very professional, curtious and helpful. I recently died my hair blue, non permanent wash out with regular shampoos. My hair was needing a complete overhaul due to its length and poor condition. The blue dye is still a gentle hue and my crowning hair has been brought back to life. I love my hair and style now! A new me! Love it! Thank you so much Andrea. Joanne.

My first visit to Saks in Knaresborough and booked with Sarah. Fancied a new look and after showing Sarah a photo of what I was looking for she got straight to it. Lots of useful tips about how to style the new look and also not to wash my hair every day (I’ve managed it so far lol) to improve its condition.

Great cut and good service. Highly recommend Sarah.
