A 5 star experience

I had a truly 5 star experience at Saks today. I was able to get an appointment within a few days. When I arrived I was made very welcome and had a consultation with Lee who gave me some expert advice about my hair and styles which would best suit me. The hair products used were bespoke to my hair type and Lee has given me a really lovely haircut which I've had lots of compliments about already! The whole team were so professional and friendly and I felt really looked after. I've recommended Saks to friends and family.

Having an appointment with Lee is more like a psychology and joke telling session with a perfect haircut thrown in. Cheaper than going for a counselling session!

Going to Saks is an enjoyable experience. Coffee/tea is offered on arrival by a member of the staff whilst waiting to be seen by the hair stylist. Lee is an experienced top-class hair stylist. He meticulously takes his time cutting my hair exactly as I want and I trust him implicitly. His work is a true example of excellence.

Sam is the only stylist I trust to actually cut my hair.
I cannot believe how a lot of stylists cannot get a concave Bob right, I have had so many bad haircuts until I met Sam.
She knows exactly how to cut my hair and I always leave the salon feeling great.
Always a lovely warm welcome at Sax of Ripon.
Won't go anywhere else now.
