Backwash Bliss

Backwash units are a fundamental part of any salon experience; not only are they an essential component of salon furniture, but they also contribute significantly to overall satisfaction. We hear from REM as they discuss how their products ensure a comfortable client is a happy client.

With the backwash being an integral part of a trip to the salon, there is nothing worse than 10 minutes of pain due to improper positioning or a lack of support when laying your head on the shampoo bowl. With suitable furniture and positioning having the power to alleviate this pain, we hear from REM to understand how comfort can be delivered throughout the duration of a client’s trip to the salon.

The question is: how can you avoid discomfort, enhance client relaxation, and boost client satisfaction? Through design, research, and planning, REM discusses how comfort can be delivered throughout the duration of a client’s trip to the salon while maintaining appearances.

Comfortable Clients

All clients are different shapes and sizes, so why would you expect a wash unit to suit all clients? The market is full of a multitude of units to choose from, but not with a one-size-fits-all approach! It’s important to try before you buy and consider your clientele. Backwash features such as tilting basins and electrical leg rests can help make the unit suitable for a wider range of clients.

Comfort is a key priority when it comes to backwash units, and your clients will value a set-up that offers ergonomic design, reducing strain and discomfort during the wash. With this in mind, REM understands that comfort is paramount, but units with thick, plush upholstery can be expensive; however, there are many products available at the showroom to suit all budgets. Look for British-made products that carry the accreditation of quality to ensure you’re really providing the best for your clientele.

The Wash Area

Due to the nature of the role, wash areas can become messy with shampoos, treatments, and towels used in a working day. In light of this, think about what is visible to clients and what can be hidden to make the salon as aesthetically pleasing but functional as possible. Being an area of the salon that is in constant use with water, spilled chemicals, and shampoos, leading to constant cleaning and mopping, ensure your floor and furniture are durable enough to withstand the daily wear and tear.

Additionally, clever use of colour and décor can make your salon a much more inviting space, in turn increasing the number of returning customers. Why not work with a REM Salon Design Specialist to create your ideal workspace?
