David Hansen specializes in custom hair pieces, professional hair cuts, and cranial prosthesis
For the man who wants a superior hairpiece that is undetectable, there is simply no one better to create it. He specializes in custom-designed hairpieces for men and he considers it an art form.
David has been cutting hair since age 12 and has been creating hairpieces since 1967. He has been involved in all aspects of hairstyling, including judging competitions and teaching students from all over the world. His awards include winning two World Championships, five National Championships, and seven different State Championships in men�s hairstyling.
David Hansen is unique in his chosen field. He doesn't compete with barbers, hairstylists, or volume wig manufacturers. He is personally involved in each step of crafting a system for each persons unique needs and is always available to them.
This is David Hansen�s philosophy: �I am a perfectionist and, many years ago, I realized that a large staff and production facilities could not meet my demands. My goal became to be the best in my field, not the biggest.�
This philosophy ultimately produced, and continues to produce, the best results for his customers: lightweight, undetectable, and meticulously designed hairpieces.
