Chaises coiffure help customers look and feel their best. These seats should also provide comfort for stylists and be easy to clean and sanitize between services.
Stylists work tirelessly every day to make clients feel their best. A chair without hydraulic swiveling or an incline makes the job harder for them. High-quality chairs usually come with a warranty that covers repairs or replacement.
Hydraulic
Hairdressing chairs with hydraulic lifts are used in barbershops, beauty salons and tattoo shops. The hydraulics allow the stylist to adjust the chair’s height using a button or foot pedal. They are available in electric and manual models. Electric hydraulic salon chairs are the most expensive but require the least work on the part of the stylist to operate. Some have “memory” settings for frequently used heights.
A manual hydraulic styling chair is typically controlled by a foot pedal that you must pump until the desired height is reached. Ernest Koken patented this design in the 1900s, and these types of chairs still have many features that make them a cost-effective option for hairdressers today. These chairs also have levers to tilt the seat back, and they don’t require electricity but do require some work on the stylist’s part to pump the pedal manually. These chairs can also be a little louder than the electric models.
Saddle Stool
Saddle stools have an ergonomic design that improves posture, reduces back pain and promotes circulation. They also offer a variety of height adjustments so you can accommodate different client needs. These stools come in a variety of styles and materials, so you can choose the one that matches your salon’s décor.
The patented split saddle seat design cools and relieves pressure on genitals for long comfortable sitting. Its heavy duty base can withstand up to 400 lbs. It also has a 3600 rotation feature and has nylon reinforced dual casters to protect your flooring and ensure stability.
With a smaller footprint than standard desk chairs, saddle stools are perfect for salons with limited space. They are easy to clean and can be moved from station to station. In addition, they can help you build muscle by encouraging movement and activating a variety of core muscles. This makes them a great choice for people who want to avoid sedentary lifestyles.
All-Purpose
If you have a clientele that requires shampooing, styling, hair cutting or even eyebrow threading then an All-Purpose chair is the perfect solution. These chairs typically can hold more weight than a standard styling chair and feature a hydraulic base with reclining back mechanism.
This value-oriented All-Purpose chair features a unique cuboid shape that fits perfectly into modern decors. The seat back reclines smoothly with controls conveniently located on both sides and an air-assist to return the headrest to its upright position. Its chrome base plate and upgraded vinyl upholstery are easy to clean.
This stylish and affordable All-Purpose chair is ideal for barber and hairdressing salons alike, offering both sturdiness and softness with its heavy duty steel frame and wear resistant PVC sponge.
