Angelo is also the creator of the lifestyle supplement Hair Detox, which supports healthy hair growth from within, and the Flex Brush for safe hair detanglingwhich promotes hair health and growth.

Through 25 years of experience and hands-on research, Angelo David has developed a variety of cutting-edge products and techniques that allow his clients to have and maintain the healthy hair they want at every stage of life. A second-generation thinning-hair specialist, he learned how to work with hair pieces from his father, renowned wig maker Carmine Pisacreta. In 2000, he introduced Angelo David Couture Hair Extensions and Additions™, the world’s finest customized hair system.

Most recently, Angelo created Hair Detox, a lifestyle supplement that addresses the specific needs of men and women who are experiencing thinning hair and early signs of hair loss. It is based on the latest science and research on the nutrients and herbs that address various contributors to thinning hair and hair loss, including stress, hormonal imbalances and nutritional deficiencies. Hair Detox gently detoxifies the body, helps minimize nutritional deficiencies, addresses hormonal imbalances and supports healthy hair growth from within.

Angelo is also the creator of the Flex Brush—an all-purpose tool that safely detangles hair, massages the scalp and promotes health and hair growth. The brush’s versatility combined with its flex technology—as recently featured in Good Housekeeping’s Best Beauty Awards 2019 ‘Top-Tested Stylers’—make it the most forgiving hairbrush on the market. The Flex Brush, designed for both wet and dry hair, bends to follow the contours of your head, massaging your scalp and stimulating the production of natural oils. The brush has vents that allow heat to pass through it, so blow drying won’t damage the brush.

For more than a decade, Angelo has been a media fixture. In creating his signature looks, Angelo has worked with many celebrities, including Christie Brinkley, Aviva Drescher, Sonja Morgan, Carrie Preston, Tamara Tunie, Alexa Ray Joel, Coco Rocha, Shoshanna Lonstein, Danielle Savre and Kelly Rutherford. Angelo’s passions include his clients, his talented team and his family, who continually inspire him to create new hair care products and hair pieces that help men and women look and feel their very best.
