Tips for choosing pedicure chairs

If you own a salon that offers pedicures, you will want to invest wisely in pedicure spa chairs.  Even though these chairs can be expensive, if you purchase the right ones at the first time , they will last for several years.  Because of this, purchasing higher-end chairs tends to help you saving money in the long run.

 Typically, the pedicurechairs have cupholders, magazine racks, and special jet streams that massage the feet. They are built to massage client’s back when they receive a pedicure. To choose the best chair, you most likely will need to keep all of these features in mind, as well as quality, durability, and craftsmanship.

Following are some tips that will guide you well enough and make the task of choosing a right pedicure chair for yourself very easy.

1       An option that you might want to consider in your search is to observe as many chairs as you can in as many different salons as possible. Keep an eye out for customer discomfort as he or she steps into the chair. Also, observe the comfort and relaxation levels of the customer as he or she sits in the chair during the pedicure. An uncomfortable chair can be a damage to both the customer and the business.

2       Salon owners whose main concern is turning over as many customers as possible in a given day might consider purchasing pedicurechairs that will help create a client base. Typically, owners will have to choose a chair based on cost. The number of pedicure chairs in these type of salons can range anywhere from two to 35, or more.

3       For a more luxury-oriented spa, you might consider a high-end model, such as  The iSpa has speakers and an iPod dock built-in to the egg-shaped chair, which also provides the mandatory massage or the Forte, which has an auto massage cycle, or the iSpa, which doubles as an entertainment and learning center.. Future models are promising to have a built-in laptop table and Internet connection, as well.

4       Not all pedicure chairs are created equal. Many of the lower-end chairs have piped tubs that have a history of not draining completely, thereby trapping residue from the previous pedicure. This type of chair can result in an environment that could promote infection. The best pedicure chair, no matter how ergonomic and comfortable, could chase customers away if they know it carries unsanitary water.

5       If you are the owner of a spa or salon, you can usually find the best pedicure chair for your business on the Internet.  If you are aiming to be a luxury-oriented spa, then you might consider purchasing a chair with more features; if you are only interested in high customer turnover, then you might consider a model with fewer options.

This might help you through the whole process of choosing the right pedicure chair for yourself.
