In the world of hairstyling, few names command as much quiet respect as Dave Teng, founder of Hair Folio Singapore. With nearly four decades of experience behind the chair, Dave isnโt just a stylistโheโs an artist, mentor, and above all, a firm believer in the power of personal transformation.
One of Daveโs proudest milestones came in 2008, when he represented Singapore on an international stage in Tokyo. At the E Toco Hair Competition, he made history as the first non-Japanese finalist in the Ladies' Cut & Style category in 50 years, walking away with a coveted Special Prize. It wasnโt just a personal victoryโit was a win for Singaporeโs creative scene.
But Daveโs ambitions stretch far beyond trophies. He dreams of shaping a distinct Singapore styleโa look that tells the story of confidence, culture, and identity. โWhen Singaporeans look their best,โ Dave often says, โit uplifts not just individuals, but the image of our entire nation.โ
In a competitive industry where price wars are common, Dave remains steadfast in his values. He believes that great grooming isnโt a luxuryโitโs an investment in self-esteem and opportunity. His approach is simple but powerful: never compromise on quality, and never underestimate the value of helping someone feel seen.
That philosophy carries into his work with ๐๐๐ช๐๐ ๐ค๐ ๐ฑ๐ค๐, where Dave has quietly devoted his time to giving makeovers to elderly residentsโmany of whom have never had the chance to feel pampered or styled. With a pair of scissors and a heart full of care, Dave brings dignity, joy, and radiant smiles to seniors who had long faded into the background. His work there is not just a serviceโitโs a gift of confidence and connection.
Dave Teng isnโt just styling hairโheโs restoring pride, uplifting lives, and shaping a more beautiful Singapore.
