Today was my first appointment with Ashley, what a lovely person, he sat and chatted with me about my hair, what I expected and gave me advice regarding what could be achieved today (as I have shortish hair) He listened to me and didn't push his ideas, he explained and checked with me throughout my cut so I felt safe to point out areas of my hair that bugged me and he addressed the problem. My whole appointment at Sacs was great, all the staff are very friendly and helpful and I ended up with just what I wanted, I am looking forward to my next visit

I popped in because I was long over due for a hair cut just to see if there was a space. I got lucky. I had a brief consultation about a restyle of my hair. I had Jess (I think I have remembered that right). She was very friendly and professional. She got the style I wanted bang on and she was efficient. I am really happy with it. Got home and my partner loves it too. Thanks Jess.

I was a new client for Ashley. He spent plenty of time assessing what i needed, based on my hair type, lifestyle and haircut history. Although he listened carefully, he was no pushover, The end result was lighter, more fun and easier to manage than my previous style. Ill definitely go back again.

I went in for an "emergency" shampoo+blow out (ended up also having a treatment for damaged hair) and was lucky enough to find an available slot. Everyone has been super kind from start to finish. Emma has been amazing in providing info about options, products, and every step of the treatment. My hair never felt and looked so good! And my "OMG I look like a car wreck" mood rapidly changed to a "walking on sunshine" one 😀
