What Takara Belmont Makes
Takara Belmont covers nearly every piece of furniture a salon or barbershop needs, which is why it helps to know how the range splits before comparing individual models.
Barber Chairs vs. Styling Chairs
These look similar but do different jobs. Barber chairs are built for cuts and shaves, with a heavier frame, headrest, and recline for shave services. Styling chairs are built for salon cutting and styling, with a lighter profile and no shave-focused recline. A barbershop needs barber chairs. A hair salon typically needs styling chairs. A unisex shop may want some of each.
Shampoo Units and Head Spa Units
The shampoo lineup runs from compact standard backwash units for routine washes up to full-body units with extra-deep bowls and motorized positioning, built for longer services like Shiatsu shampoo and head spa treatments. If head spa services are on your menu, the full-body units are where to look.
Hair Processors, Dryers, and Supporting Pieces
Beyond chairs and shampoo units, Takara Belmont makes hair processors, including mist and roller-style units in stand and wall-mount versions, along with a hood dryer, stylist stools, and an eyelash chair. These round out a room rather than anchor it, and are usually added once the main stations are chosen.
Upholstery, Colors, and Lead Times
Many Takara Belmont models are available in a wide range of upholstery colors, and some offer two-tone combinations at no extra charge. Custom colors take longer to ship, while select models offer a fast-ship standard color. If you're furnishing a new space on a deadline, check lead time alongside color.
Takara Belmont FAQs
The questions people usually have before choosing Takara Belmont equipment.
What's the difference between a barber chair and a styling chair?
Barber chairs are heavier, include a headrest, and recline for shaves. Styling chairs are lighter and built for salon cutting and styling without shave recline. Choose based on the services your shop actually offers.
Can I choose custom upholstery colors?
On many models, yes, often from dozens of options. Custom colors generally take longer to ship than a model's standard stock finish.
Do I need a full-body head spa unit or a standard shampoo unit?
A standard unit covers routine washes. A full-body unit is worth it if you offer longer services like head spa or Shiatsu shampoo, where client comfort over an extended session matters.
