David has had a distinguished 30 year career in Salon Management working for world famous names in London's West End (1975 to 1983) before opening his first salon from scratch in Windsor. 9 years on, after very successfully selling this salon, he opened his second salon again from scratch in 1992 despite a heavy economic recession.
This salon has been twice Grand Finalist for "Independent Salon of the Year" in the British Hairdressing Business Awards.
David is very proud to be a "Fellow of The Fellowship for British Hairdressing" and a ‘Master Craftsman of The Hairdressing Council’, and has also been a Council Member for "HABIA" (Hairdressing & Beauty Industry Authority) representing NAS (Nationally Approved Salons).

David runs his Business Doctor series of articles for the Salon Surgery section of Hairdressers Journal International publication, and was an invited judging panel member for the 2006 British Hairdressing Business Awards.
