Client Comfort
This may seem to be an obvious point to consider, but it should be one of the first factors you contemplate before making the investment.

Stylist Comfort
Like client comfort, it is important to analyze what does "comfortable" mean to your stylists The day-to-day work of a stylist is physically demanding, and it is extremely important to consider the long-term comfort of your stylists. First, make sure to purchase a chair with a hydraulic base that adjusts in relation to your stylist's height.

Some hydraulics have higher travel ranges for those taller stylists, while other chairs are built lower to the ground for shorter stylists. Aside from it being a hydraulic chair, it is also important to make sure your potential salon chairs are lockable at the preferred height, and that they provide maximum mobility.

Assembly
If the chair requires assembly, check if they come with clear instructions and are easy to put together. This can save you time and frustration during the setup process.
