Barber station

A barber station is a workstation built for barbers, with a large counter for clippers and trimmers, tool holders, drawers and often built-in outlets. It comes in two kinds: a dry station with no plumbing, and a wet station with its own shampoo sink.

Buy-Rite Beauty notes that dry stations take up less space and can move when the layout changes. Wet stations save a walk to a separate wash area but need water lines and a drain. Many barber stations also have a spot for a Barbicide jar.

Zenoti prices barber stations at $200 to $1,500. Check barber chair sizes and the cost to open a barber shop, then line up stations in the barbershop layout tool. A wet station drain needs a hair trap like any shampoo sink.
