Saks held its national awards in three regions this year, celebrating the creative and business successes of the salon group.
The Northern event was held at the Newcastle Hilton, the Central awards took place at the Birmingham Hilton while the Hilton London Metropole was the venue for the Southern event.
With more than 3,000 team members - from hairdressing juniors to Art Team members - now working for Saks nationwide, the network had outgrown any national venue.
Instead, the regional events enabled more teams and individuals could be recognised for their achievements.
The evenings kicked off with a delicious three-course meal before the glittering awards ceremony, which was hosted by Saks managing director, Stephen Kee.
