What Makes Saks Different
Saks is the UK's leading hair and beauty salon brand, renowned for style and excellence, with an award-winning network of franchise salons on the high street and in health clubs. Saks' brand excellence has led to the company scooping many top accolades including Nationwide Salon Group of the Year, Best Corporate Marketing Campaign, Top Training Scheme, Best Local Marketing, Top Local Training Development, British Hair and Beauty Customer Care Awards, British Franchise Association Franchise Awards and British Hairdresser of the Year.
A worldwide leader in hair and beauty education, Saks is also officially acknowledged as the UK's Top Training Provider, awarded Beacon Status by the Quality Improvement Agency and grade ones by the Adult Learning Inspectorate, for providing outstanding training. This means our hairdressers and beauty therapists are the best of the best. They are highly skilled, brilliantly trained and the experts when it comes to recommending the perfect cuts, colours and beauty treatments to suit the clients' specific needs. What's more, Saks is recommended as a benchmark for educational best practice across all industries. Saks Academies are best known for the ground breaking Saks fast-track full time and evening hairdressing, barbering and beauty courses for beginners where delegates may obtain NVQ qualifications in as little as 10 weeks, an industry first.
Saks has an enviable company culture. Saks people are brand ambassadors, with passion, professionalism, and a desire to exceed the standards for which Saks is renowned - fabulous hairdressing, cutting edge beauty, and outstanding customer care. Saks has never embraced an 'it's cool to be rude' culture - unfortunately all too common in the fashion industry. In short, Saks embodies exclusivity with approachability.
