DEBBIE WINS 2022 BEAUTY AWARD
Oh what a day. And night. It was incredible for all our hair and beauty team in Guisborough to finally get together with loads of our fellow Saks salons up and down the country, along with Saks HQ and Saks Artists for the 2022 Saks Gathering and Awards Ceremony.
FESTIVAL VIBE
Date… 12 June 2022. Setting… Wyboston Lakes. Vibe… channelling our own festival pre- Glasto 5-0. Live music on the main stage, stalls, games, butterflies on stilts, mirrored men, street food, games, dancing and singing in a field. Then a big awards ceremony and after-party.
Dress code? Festival-glam. Coupled with much hugging, laughter and happy tears at actually seeing each other. With sunnies, glitter on our faces and in our hair, in Docs, flatforms and trainers… day to night bliss right?
DEBBIE’S WINNING MOMENT
As twilight set in, we all headed into the awards ceremony. And to our delight our brilliant beauty salon owner, Debbie, won the Beauty Image Award. An incredibly achievement at a national awards ceremony being up against tough competition from beauty salons up and down the country.
Debbie says “Being reunited with our Saks family at this year’s Gathering was such an amazing day. Festival means having fun and after going through recent challenging times, it made me really appreciate how incredible our Saks family is.
“I didn’t stop smiling and laughing all day. So to be recognised and win an award on the evening couldn’t be more perfect. So very happy and proud to be part of Saks. Excited for more great times to come”.
LET’S DANCE
And for part three we danced into the early hours with all the tunes provided by Ministry of Sound DJ *and old school friend of Saks* Nilesh Parmar. From dance classic *I know I can count on you* to all-time faves.
SKEE SAYS
Our MD Stephen Kee says: “Our awards recognise our superstars from our salons up and down the country and reward them for their hard work. There are no flukes here. It’s all measured by dedication to work, consistently, day in day out. I really want to congratulate all finalists and especially our winners. You’re doing amazing work and you deserve recognition.
“It was great seeing everyone together after not being able to get together for so long. Everyone had a fantastic time. Very proud of everyone at Saks and where we are in 2022.”
