Salon chair

A salon chair, also called a styling chair, is the swiveling chair a client sits in at a styling station. It rides on a hydraulic pump so the stylist can raise or lower the client to a comfortable working height, and it is smaller and lighter than a barber chair.

Takara Belmont's Facet styling chair measures 25.4 inches wide, 28 deep and 36 tall. Booksy prices hydraulic styling chairs at $400 to $1,200 each. Check the weight ratings as well. Buy-Rite Beauty lists its Capri chair at 350 lb, with the pump rated to 550 lb.

Chair spacing decides how many fit, so read how much space a salon chair needs and the hydraulic chair entry. The salon floor plan maker puts a 26 by 30 inch chair in front of each salon station.
