Robert McMaster, Chair of the Sally Beauty Holdings
Board of Directors said, “As the Company emerges from the hard work of its transformation, both the Board and Chris agree that
now is the right time for a change in leadership. During Chris’s tenure, the Company ushered in many new initiatives, including
strengthening Sally Beauty Holdings’ standing as the largest omni-channel hair color retailer, introducing modernized loyalty programs,
investing significantly in technology and improving our digital capabilities, and leading the Company through the pandemic. On behalf
of the entire Board, I want to thank Chris for his service and many contributions to Sally Beauty Holdings over the past seven years
and, in particular, for the talented team he has put in place. We wish him well in the next chapter of his career.”
