A beautiful manicure requires a lot of time spent in the chair of the master. That is why it is so important to choose the right chair for both the master and the client. Of course, the requirements for them will differ slightly, but convenience will remain the main criterion for selection.
Features
Armchair for manicure has a number of features. It, of course, differs from home or cabinet products. The chair of the manicurist should be equipped with a lifting mechanism, wheels, an adjustable backrest. And also it should be made of a material that can easily withstand daily disinfection.
The chair is an integral part of almost any beauty procedure, and for the master, this is the place where he spends from 6 to 12 hours of his working time.
In addition, it should be noted that the workplace of the master and the place for the client, in addition to general features, also have individual parameters. That is, each master chooses a chair that meets 100% precisely his requirements.
Kinds
There are several main types of manicure chairs: on wheels, with a high and low back, with and without armrests, with a lifting mechanism and without it. And there are upholstery options that are most suitable for this type of activity: genuine or artificial leather, rubberized fabric. There is no formula for an “ideal” place for manicure, but each of the types meets one or another need.
Wheelchair allows you to make the workplace mobile. This is especially convenient for those who are engaged in both manicure and pedicure. Thanks to the wheels, the master can quickly move from one place to another. The choice between high and low back is not fundamental. You can choose a model with an adjustable back for maximum comfort for both the master and the client.The same applies to the presence or absence of armrests: they do not carry any additional functionality, as they provide exclusively additional comfort. However, the armrests only interfere with some craftsmen.
Height Adjustable Models also worthy of attention. This function cannot be considered mandatory, but no master will call it superfluous. If for the master you can choose one chair of the necessary parameters, then for customers this is not possible. Everything is individual, so an adjustable chair will be a great solution.
The choice of upholstery should be taken more seriously. The material must be wear resistant. It is worth considering the frequency of its use, as well as the need for disinfection. The most successful solution would be to buy a chair with leather or high quality artificial leather upholstery. It will be more economical to buy a model without upholstery - plastic or frame, but such a solution will deprive comfort. On a plastic coating, you can purchase covers made of suitable material, which will solve some lack of comfort.
As a separate species, I would like to highlight orthopedic chairs for craftsmen. They have a special saddle shape and a curved back. Such a chair relieves tension from the back from a long fixed position, relieves of back pain and the emergence of a quick feeling of fatigue. Additional functionality of such models can be called height adjustment. The metal frame with upholstered seat will become a comfortable working and stylish workplace of the master. Of course, such models are quite expensive.
Criterias of choice
The criteria for choosing a model for the wizard and for the client can differ greatly, which must be taken into account when choosing each of them.
For the master
In the first place when choosing a manicure place the master should take into account comfort. Therefore, it is worth taking a closer look at orthopedic chairs and models on wheels. Ideally, if one model can combine this in itself. Orthopedic design will not allow the back of the master to strain and get tired, and the wheels provide a quick way to move around the office. Attention should be paid to style: the overall picture of the interior will favorably affect the work and the opinion of visitors about the salon or master.
For client
The seat for the client should be as comfortable as possible. In addition, the chair should be easy to clean: not every upholstery material will withstand daily disinfection. Another selection criterion may be the presence of armrests, an adjustable backrest and height. The client’s chair should remain stylish, without compromising on quality and comfort. Buying plastic seats, it is worth taking care of a soft seat.
The choice of a particular chair can significantly affect the health of the master, on the impressions of the client. Do not neglect the basic recommendations for choosing chairs.
