Overview
Where Philippine hair artistry reaches its highest expression.
David's Salon was founded in 1980 by David Cruz, who trained under some of Europe's most celebrated hair artists before returning to Manila to build what would become the country's most influential salon brand. The Premier division, launched in 2008, represents the pinnacle of that four-decade journey.
The Premier salon on Ayala Avenue occupies two floors of a heritage-adjacent building, designed with exposed brick, warm walnut cabinetry, and the kind of lighting that makes every client look like they've just stepped out of a fashion editorial. The team of 35 stylists are individually certified in their specialties — balayage, Japanese straightening, Olaplex bonding, and precision cutting.
The signature "David's Color Session" is a 3-hour immersive experience that begins with a scalp health analysis, moves through custom color formulation, and ends with a styling session that teaches clients how to replicate their look at home. Bridal packages are booked months in advance.

Editor's Note
“Ask for Senior Colorist Jana — her balayage work on dark Asian hair is genuinely world-class. Book at least 3 weeks ahead for weekend slots.”
