What Students Are Saying..

“I’ve had the wonderful experience of being educated by Davide. I can’t express how much it helped me develop my precision cutting skills and the way I looked at hair—even how I held it. He is a master of our craft, and if you truly want to invest in yourself, I can’t think of a better person.”

"I have attended a group class and had a one-to-one day with Davide, and it has truly been a game-changer in my journey as a hairstylist.
Since the class, my sectioning has become much cleaner. My graduation has improved significantly. I feel much more confident with bobs, and I now understand how to work with geometric shapes, whether square, round, or triangular, cutting with honest intention.
I am incredibly grateful for the opportunity to learn from such a talented educator."

" I’ve been working as a hairdresser for several years and have had the privilege of training with Davide multiple times. He’s not only a highly skilled professional, but also a naturally gifted educator—calm, attentive, and incredibly generous with his knowledge. Being trained by him was a real turning point in my career. I still apply many of his techniques today."

 " I was so impressed with Davide’s in-salon education for my team.
Everyone took so much away from the class. The techniques he taught were easy to understand and could be implemented straight away — with confidence, not fear.

It takes real skill to teach a group with mixed levels of experience, and yet not one team member felt confused or left behind. 

We’re already looking forward to our next education day with Davide — and so am I! "

"Davide is such a great teacher. I learned so much from him when I was an apprentice at Trevor Sorbie. He taught me weekly, covering all the foundation haircutting techniques, and really helped me build confidence — from sharp precision cuts to softer, layered looks. He has such a unique way of teaching and brings loads of real experience into everything. I’d always be happy to learn more from him anytime."

" I’ve attended several of Davide Spinelli’s courses. He is both an artist and a master of precision cutting.
His classes are clear, professional, and full of strong technique.
You speak with him like a colleague, but his level of skill stands out immediately: English technique, Italian style.
Every time, I leave with fresh ideas and techniques ready to use."

"Davide is a highly skilled, genuine, and straightforward educator.
Attending his courses helped me refine my work  and sharpen my scissor cutting techniques, bringing practical and valuable knowledge back to the salon — not only for hairstyling, but also for barbering and grooming."
