While our company name is SalonEquipment.Com, we do not limit ourselves to only specific segments within the industry. Take, for example, retirement communities and assisted living facilities. As this segment of the population grows, so, too, do the needs of accommodating them with proper and adequate care. As a result, small salons are being constructed within retirement communities and assisted living facilities. Enter the versatile, Collins 7710 Access All Purpose Hydraulic Chair with Round Base. Two features on this unique chair set it apart from anything out in the market today. 1) the patented footrest is split into two, and has the ability to be rotated in during client's service and out for easy entry and exit in and out of the chair. 2) the armrest of the chair is removable to allow side access for the client. The lever control recline mechanism allows for smooth transition from upright to laying back for shampoo services. Of course, this chair is not just for retirement communities and assisted living facilities. We've had a lot of feedback over the years about the standard, u-shaped tubular footrest as well as the t-bar footrest, and how clients will use these footrest styles as a step to get in and out of the chair, often causing the chair to tip. Footrests that swivel and rotate in and out can give any salon owner and stylist peace of mind as clients enter and exit their chairs. Also, make the chair even more versatile by adding a headrest to provide makeup, waxing, or facial services.

Acrylic, mold-injected plastic, porcelain, fiberglass - all contributing towards varying degrees of price, quality and sustainability over time by several different manufacturers and brands. But what about those parts? Are they interchangeable? Can they be replaced without replacing [...]

Layouts and designs are one of the most crucial steps to getting any business started in the right direction. The hair and beauty industry is no exception. Finding someone qualified to handle this can be "hit or miss," and very expensive. It can also be very costly if it results in re-making certain pieces that [...]
