I have been a shop owner for over a decade and get lots of joy teaching others the craft of haircutting via barbering or hair styling. This online hair education course will give you the success you desire if you implement the teaching daily.
Forest Davis along with being a professional barber, barbershop owner, and hair educator, is also a skateboarder.
A hairstylist cutting hair on a mannequin head with scissors who knows hair theory and how and why to cut hair a certain way.
Forest Davis is a surfer from Kitty Hawk on the Outer Banks of North Carolina. He owns a barber shop called Salty Salon and Barbershop.

Hi, I am Forest Davis. I started this whole thing because I wasn’t fully equipped after school. I didn’t understand hair theory and I wanted to create what I didn’t have, guidance and proper teaching all on a simple easy to use platform. I felt lost in the hair world and sadly I felt lost behind the chair. One time I gave a client a bowl cut and didn’t know how to fix it. Yeah thats right, I am confessing a hair sin to you. If i knew what I knew now I could fix it in 2 minutes or less.

A little about my personal life…I am 32 years old, married to my wife of 11 plus years, and our precious little girl came into this world in 2023. We are Outer Banks NC local natives and will always call this place home.

I have been surfing and skateboarding since the ripe age of 7. Traveled all over for both of them. My body hurts more when I skate now but have the occasional back yard ramp session. My wife and I both surf and love taking our little girl out as much as possible. The saltiness of the ocean gives us joy.

Lastly, I am a child of God. Jesus knocked on the door of my life at 12 years old and I have never been the same since. He is God, Savior & Friend. I strive to be like Him daily and know Him deeply.
